Is sound choppy running hq or original quality vids. You can get audio sync troubles with hq vids. Try both, if the original quality plays without the audio troubles you should use a free video converter like SUPER and change it from 1280x960 to 960x720 or 720x640. If the audio is still choppy when using original quality vids then you got me. Good Luck.
 
CHoppyness went away when I started to use the HQ vids. But when I test it the sound is off for a few seconds then starts. For example when I tested the opening when cloud talks, You only hear it after the train stops.
Edit: Forget it I got it to load. Thanks for the help!

Does it happen everytime? Sometimes i get that when i load, but usually it plays just fine.
 
I downloaded it to check the link and it worked fine for me. I recommend that you keep trying.
 
i am really quite impressed with these videos (especially the prelude), It mustve taken you quite a while to make some of these mustn't it ?
the only thing that looks out of place on these is the old video parts (i realize these need to be put in to make things look right like the train on the opening) but isnt there some way of making the transition between the new and old videos look better then suddenly cutting from one to another ?
 
i have tried making the transaction between the new video and original video a bit smoother and i think it looks alright but i would like to ask for your opinion on the matter.
(its the last scene where it goes from the new video to the old train station video at around 1:48 the rest of the video is the exact)
 
Yeah that's looking better kranmer, the only criticism I can offer is that maybe it should fade to the view of Midgar at 1.36/1.37, rather than just cutting to it.
 
Prince Lex - yeah that might make it look better, Without the original video i wouldnt be able to do it perfectly but i can do a alright fade (it glitches a little after the fade and this is to keep the video length, i can make it so it doesnt glitch after fade but the video would but shorter then the original by a few frames or if like i said above i had the original video i could use that instead of looping the video for the fade. (also i could always just add a few frames at the start of the video i suppose to keep the original amount of frames and use the current fade without the loop)
Anyway here is a quick draft of what i think you mean, if the fade happens to quick i can also slow it down if you think that would look better.
 
Yeah, that's much better, makes it feel a lot less cut up ^_^

Good job.
 
Thats a very nice video, If only we could get an HD source of the movie Grimmy used. And make the original video (from FF7 not grimmy's) less crappy haha :-P
 
yeah a HD source would have been great but does one even exist ? (i have never seen one but i havent ever really searched that hard either so i have no idea if one exists or not) the highest res i have ever seen is 640x480 which i would guess was what grimmy used (a guess not a fact) for some parts of the video
 
I found one with an HD option on youtube from someone on these forums here


But it's the HD techdemo and Grimmy used the CrisisCore ending.
 
Kranmer : I like the new transition. I actually reused the transition from otokoshi, so I never even took a crack at it.

As far as the quality vid I used, it was recorded by my dvr at 720x??? or 960x???. I'm unsure since the source video I have has been converted to 1280. I think the same vid can be found online with a little bit of searching.
 
well i had a quick look but couldnt find any of the videos in HD (i only spent 20mins looking) so i decided to get the normal vidz then just upscale and see what happens and i am quite impressed with the results of how the original video can look when scaled up to 1280x960, i have uploaded them below incase anyone is interested (all in MP4 format to keep the quality high).
Also hellbringer is that video just a upscaled version or is it an original HD video ?


CC Ending Video upscaled to 1280x960 at 15fps
(no audio since it was ripped from .PMF)

Kranmer: I do not know as it's not my video, It does however look better then an original so i believe it is an HD source.
 
ok i have tried to remake grimmy's vid using the 3 vidz i uploaded before and grimmy's own video and here is the result (no sound yet since i used different parts i couldnt just use the original audio's so i will need to edit that it later)
i only used the FF7 logo scene from grimmy's HD opening on that video the other parts are taken from the video's i uploaded earlyier today, there isnt much changes but there are a few small ones, the stars now dont flicker with artifacts, the zooming out from the clock now fades rather then switches, After cloud says his name and the train goes off if now fades to midgar without the glitch from before (in my previous version i mean) and i tried to make the fade to the original FF7 cutscene more natural but i still dont think it looks quite right.
Also grimmy what video source did you use for the FF7 logo part ? i havent seen it before and when i searched around the net i couldnt find anything like that either so i am just interested in what its from.
hellbringer616: i might PM the guy some time and ask him what his source was or maybe i will just leave a comment later asking if i remember.
 
Grimmy used the Crisis core ending i believe, As thats where Cloud talks as well as it doesn't say tech demo
