Inqu is just using common sense what some people dont seem to have. And he hasnt done any movie as far as i know, but im sure the movie wouldnt be bad if he would do one.

Wtf am I bugging or is the booze doing tricks on me?

Here is a small tutorial how to compress sounds on otherwise ready video without losing ANY vid quality what so ever.

It's easy, cheap and fast!
The clock is 5.30 here so spare with me, I'll check it out tomorrow when I'm sober. Anyway here it is:

Inqu, have you done any q movies by yourself? All these movie issues seem to be familiar to you :-)

BTW, I guess you were trying to say "like a red rag to a bull" - that's the right simile ;p

>First of all, the video is divx 3.11 (low motion), not divx4. *snip*

Im a complete newbie at movie editing and ther stood DivX ;-) 4 .. dunno

>Use recams instead 1st person view next time, the movie was a slideshow

It wasnt because of the 1st person view
And i think its normal for a Frag Highlight movie to use 1st person.. but i am actually recaming some frags for the next movie :p

>-PCM SOUND AGAIN!!

Yeh sry.. as i said im completely new to this
The Program i used got errors when i tried to use mp3 codec

>higher fps on avi

See the last posting of me

>Use FSAA and ANISO! It'll make the movie look better, especially to those who use it all the time, those jaggies are like a red cloth to a bull atleast for me.

WTF is this?

>But I gotta say when this was your first movie, I liked it...*snip*

Thx and im not pissed

Good idea gone wrong

First of all, the video is divx 3.11 (low motion), not divx4. There really is no point of using divx 3.11 instead of 5.1.1 since the new codecs are superior and 3.11 is actually illegal.
Use recams instead 1st person view next time, the movie was a slideshow

Pros:
-ra2 movie! I like it
-Good brightness and gamma
-Nice scene change effects, I liked them

Cons:
-PCM SOUND AGAIN!! I just bitched about them in quazilins vid but this is worse
The sounds take 38% of the filesize! Cmoon wtf are you thinking: 35mb for 3min sound?? This is why mp3 was invented.
I began to worry when I saw the .avi was ~20% bigger than the rar, if the video is packed correctly the .rar or .zip should be only few per cent smaller than the avi.
-Stutter, use recams next time and higher fps on avi, try exporting like 60fps and then make a movie with 30fps out of it. Explore the different framerates and you'll see it doesnt have to be 10fps
-Use FSAA and ANISO! It'll make the movie look better, especially to those who use it all the time, those jaggies are like a red cloth to a bull atleast for me.

But I gotta say when this was your first movie, I liked it a lot.
Don't get pissed off, I'm trying to pinpoint the probs you had in the movie so you can fix them for your next (hopefully) long movie.

Hehe yeh the fuckin Framerate
But all the Progs i found wasnt able to capture more fps because of my shit comp (p3 700, 128mb, gf2mx 32mb and a slow hdd )
But the aviexport feature in beefquake works well so the next Movie will have 25 fps
And ill try to make shorter breaks

Nice movie - too bad about the frame rate, though

Looking forward to your next!

since few months there is some fashion for making q2 movies
but about movie:
+ nice frags
- too many "nice techniques"
- too long breaks between each actions (reason above)

but overall i like it, short and "easy" to watch, nice work =)
