please fix that

OK KIDDIES

its march 5th, and i need betas

if i dont have a beta by the end of the day, and you have not sent me a pm before today requesting more time (except mugen, you may have an extension) i may have to kick you out

i dont care how long they are, i just want to see progress

now send em in!

Well, I'm going to work for a couple more hours on it, then send it in. (UGH! I've had so many other deadlines this past week. . .that magically keep getting pushed back after I've already scrambled to try and get it done and uploaded.

) I have the 1st 15 seconds done. And a couple pieces here and there. I', going to try and get a bit more done. I don't know if I'll have a chance to reencode all my footage (I have a DivX version of the entire series sitting around to mess with, then I encode the clips I need into lagarith.) But I will at least replace the clips I have sitting around from the other MEP I used Saikano for. (So, most likely half my quality will be ok and the other half will be horrible. My ending quality will be like the clips that look ok. Luckily, its mostly the action clips I have in lagarith. . .which is what usually tends to look awful in DivX) So my rum may not be very good, but it will be progress at least.

See you in a couple hours.

That was quite good beta actually.
Is your footage aspect ratio 720x480 to begin with? If not, you'll have to uncheck the "stretch video to fill..." at the rendering options. (you may have to zoom in a little and crop from the top and bottom of the video)

Hmm,
720/576 = 1,25
720/480 = 1,5

Yeah, you have to crop something out, from the top and the bottom, till the two sides reach the sides of the screen - i guess.

Ok, nothing spectacular, but here's my beta. *deep breath* Some of it is kinda bad quality while some of the quality is decent. The decent is what the final will look like. (I have the whole series in DivX so I have it to mess with, then I just go back and encode the clips I need into lagarith. I only had time to change out for lagarith clips I already had on my comp.) Ok, aside from that, a couple things that will be changed: General sync will be tightened. The sync going into the 3rd "Education" is off as is "Don't be late for school again." The words on that will be blinking. I just couldn't get Premiere to import gifs today for some reason. The "Boy-y-y-y-y-etc" will have some different clips in it. (The current ones are a bit repetative) Other than that, what do you think?

Wurpess' Rum
