But my experience tells me that unless these is a consistant search method to locate these competiton videos, they'll just get lost in the noise of Britney's FIRST drink after rehab.

Has anyone considered how to make these videos stand out? Is there a special keyword that has been assigned to make them easy to locate?

I tried looking on Google for regional videos and could find nothing usefull.... :mad:

How would a novice like me go about finding the neddle in the haystack if I wanted to locate the official Chesapeake regional videos?

You can look at The Blue Alliance Match Archives, or "TBAtv", located at www.thebluealliance.net/tbatv . You can look at videos and scores by event, or search for a team number in the top right hand corner. You can watch the video in streaming flash right on the page (like YouTube), or download the source file directly. Have fun!

It doesn't appear that they have Chesapeake videos available yet.

I thought SOAP stood for "Scouting Opposition and Alliance Partners" ...

Oh well, its a FANTASTIC resource either way ...

Re: Coordinated Regional Video Archiving..

I was just shown a video from the Manchester Regional urging people to upload everything to Youtube from Dean and some Youtube guy.

It belongs in another thread but I'm too lazy- Does this request by DK and YT not totally sit well with anyone else? Does every match really belong on YT, or just promo stuff like Chairman's submissions, animations, etc...

Your thoughts...

Re: Coordinated Regional Video Archiving..

It's very likely that Team 578 is going to record and parse the phili regional because there is a strong interest in doing it. On monday I can tell you the final decision.

It is too hard to search youtube effectively, especially the way it is organized and returns mass search results. I think a more searchable useable community-maintained site is more appropriate. This is what The Blue Alliance is trying to do, and I think between us and SOAP we have the FIRST Match hosting stuff covered.

I will have the ear of FIRST HQ this w/e and we'll see what sort of co-opertition is possible.
Wish me well...

Re: Coordinated Regional Video Archiving..

I personally like being able to get directly to a specific year and specific regional with only one click. I dont have to search for the specific terminology then hope youtube pulls up the right videos. SOAP is SOOO much easier.

Re: Coordinated Regional Video Archiving..

I can provide webspace for some clips, although I don't have the hardware to do much else.

My webhost is very generous with webspace ("Put the server to use"). It doesn't have impressive bandwidth, but it works. (I do prefer footage from 904's matches, since they are my team, but I'll host anything.)

PM me if you need space.

Re: Coordinated Regional Video Archiving..

I am uploading the waterloo footage as I cut it up, its only the archive from the webcast right now but we also have most of it recorded to dvd that will take a little longer to split up. For GTR next week we have a dedicated computer that is going to archive the video at a higher resolution than waterloo.

I just saw this.. I believe that when the scorekeeper makes a change to the database, it gets sent at the time the change is made, so it may be out of sync with the match schedule. That is, not having the match numbers shown on the web display is annoying, and will cause confusion.

All we need is an XML or CSV feed from the scoring DB. The data is all available anyway, but its all put up in an inconsistent and hard to parse way.

O/T:

Do you know if the DBs from the regionals are online somewhere?

I was going to run some numbers on the scores, but with the equal share of ramp points, rack points, and how different the exponential scoring is this year, as opposed to the "1 or 3 per" last year, the numbers would make even less sense.

Better yet, is there a scout from every regional that recorded the number ringers scored by each team there?

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 17:04.
