Re: 2007 Lone Star Regional
While I'm at it, I'd like to ask my customers' opinions on this encoding change I'm making. I'm uploading one of the newly encoded quarterfinals videos. It will be called tx_qf1m1alt.wmv. If you guys could compare it to the original tx_qf1m1.wmv file and PM me your preference, I'd appreciate it. I'd like to make sure I'm not making things worse. For those that have forgotten: SOAP Lone Star Archives
Encoding differences: Original Uses drop field deinterlacing. Moving objects have crisp borders, but we're basically dumping half the resolution by dropping every other line. Thus the blurry letters. Alt Uses blend deinterlacing. Moving objects have blurry borders. Interlaced fields are blended together preserving info and keeping detail in stationary objects, like the text. Basically, I'm looking for if the motion blur is distracting or troublesome. looking around 1:45 in the vids is a good example. Kevin S. |

Re: 2007 Lone Star Regional
Well we couldn't have had more fun at Lone Star. I wanna thank everyone that helped make lone star a success, and I want to thank our alliance partners for showing us a good time. I'll never forget Brazil leading our team in our cheer. Man it was fun. Congrats to 118, 1745,and 476.

Re: 2007 Lone Star Regional
Kevin,
Thanks for posting the videos. I found the alt version looked much better. Its much more beneficial to be able to read numbers off of the robots then to have no motion blur. Just my opinion, but regardless I'll be happy with whichever version of matches get uploaded as long as i can tell red from blue. =) |

Re: 2007 Lone Star Regional
Thanks a bunch Kevin! I've done enough video editing myself to know how mind numbingly tedious it can be. I'm trying to get used to some new contacts, so I can't really focus well enough to give a decent opinion on the encoding formats. So I'll go with the majority on that one.

Re: 2007 Lone Star Regional
That's good enough for me. I'll swap them all out this morning and get on finishing the quals.

Re: 2007 Lone Star Regional
Eek. I have all of my team's matches (16) recorded... and since we just happen to be in both of those matches, I do have them. But, I follow our robot around the entire time. If you still want them, let me know... I'll try to dig them out. hah.

Re: 2007 Lone Star Regional
Okay. I'll dig through the footage tonight and maybe I could just stick them on YouTube and send you a link or something.

Re: 2007 Lone Star Regional
Kevin is just now putting up the qualifying rounds. You are looking for matches 66 & 74.

Re: 2007 Lone Star Regional
Kevin will sadly not be getting to 66 & 74 this morning. School and all that. I should get to those tonight. The uproar for Q's was just so great I figured I should post as I get to them.

Re: 2007 Lone Star Regional
Okay, an update. I've got all the matches parsed and encoded or encoding. Unfortunately, SOAP has run out of quota. I'm taking down the huge awards vids since I wanted to chop those up anyways, but that'll only get me to about match 50. So y'all may have to wait until SOAP gets their hosting bumped up before you have the entire selection of matches.
TubaMorg, If you still want those two matches, hit up my AIM around 1PM CDT or later and I'll try to send them to you that way. |
