[TBA]: Pittsburgh Video Splitting

[Greg Marra]

Pittsburgh video is available online, but needs to be split into matches.

Does anyone have the time to do this? I can provide FTP credentials to upload the split video once you are done.

Thanks!

I'll start with Friday 1 and work my way down, posting when I move onto another block.

What software are you guys using? I just found a version of VLC that will play these files without protest. Now I'm rummaging through the online downloads for video editing software. There are a couple of try before buy options, but I'd like to hear any experienced users' opinions.

I found that you can parse them with VLC, go to View >> Advanced controls. Play the video until you hear "Ready 3, 2, 1, GO!" then press the record button (it has to play at 1x speed and with sound on, you can turn off your speakers). Press the record button at the final buzzer, the video will be in My Documents.

I don't know how to encode or change settings with VLC, I am sure there is a way. Can someone post with instructions if there is.

Just a heads up. I haven't started yet due to homework load, so while I'll probably get to it tonight or tomorrow, if everything else is done go ahead and do Friday one.

[Jonathan Norris]

I pretty much have all of Saturday up, elims going up soon. http://www.thebluealliance.net/tbatv/event/2010pit

Too speedy for me, Jonathan. Good work. Maybe there's a week3 archive that needs splitting?

Did you get all of the videos from the first post or are there still some to be done?
