Speed Video Part 2 (now with a faster hopper!)

[Tempest261]

Just encoded our second speed video. Finally found an EvoII to use (since my EvoII is off being upgraded). I recommend the divx version, but if you don't have the divx codec then get the regular AVI.

[Jedrith]

Must of been that thing all that way off. I really couldn't tell what it was.

[Tempest261]

yeah its a little stuffed animal at the top of that post. we were aiming at it the whole time and I was personally very impressed with the accuracy. But that could have something to do with the fact that I use ultralights.

nice video!

[obsessed w/the sport]

took forever to download, but it was worth it, cool, it sounded fast, the vid didnt load tho, was there a vid?

[Tempest261]

was there a vid?


yeah...

Sounds like you downloaded the divx version. Either download the divx codec at www.divx.com or download the regular AVI version of the video (second link).

[KillaPaiNt]

nice video mike....i shot my teammates speed yesterday wit a egg2...(no y board)...i outshoot it a couple times..pinch a couple balls..also,do u have a pmi thor regulartor on their..i could'nt tell

[Tempest261]

You shouldn't be outshooting your evo II with sensi on unless the sensor isn't working correctly.

No thor- just a crossfire 4500/850/68 w/ an On-off and a sidewinder regulator (since the 850 is too much for the mini reg).

[dooksdooks]

[matthepepe]

very nice video, and id be a little mad at that kid at the end of the vid you can here him drop it and metal hitting metal on the table.

[Tempest261]

Metal against wood actually- that was me- I'd never do anything so absurd! You're hearing things.

[Kdog-13]

That gun is like my setup and it rips. I have an EvoII yboard. The video is nice!

[Buddha 5]

Unless he's on a mac - neither of your files work on a Mac using Windows Media or Quicktime as the player - they both produce sound but no video. Best bet for cross platform compatibility is a QuickTime file...

[Tempest261]

they have versions of the divx codec for mac.

but anyway- quicktime is utter crap. I will never encode video in that ****ty ass format if I can help it.

[Benfrain]

Re QuickTime - Your joking right? You obviously don't work with video on a daily basis...

Well format opinions aside, you are right, there is a Divx codec for the mac, and if being on a mac is his problem, downloading that will be the simplest solution...

[Tempest261]

Well at CNN I've never see anyone encode a single piece of video in quicktime for any purpose. All formats we work with are usually MPEG-2 and 1.

And in my experience, quicktime video easily picks up artificats and only compresses well at extremely low framerates. It's crap. MPEG-4 is the way to go.

[Benfrain]

Mike, MPEG-4 is the basis for QuickTime 6?????? It's the first architecture to actively embrace MPEG-4!!

I think you are confusing architectures with codecs....

However, it's a good video, which with the Divx codec installed plays fine in QuickTime 6!

[Tempest261]

well then yeah I am confusing them. Quicktime is always listed as a codec in the programs I use.

But if you're touting quicktime as a good player, then you're looking at it from the point of view of a mac user. On a PC, it's hideously unstable.

[Tempest261]

Next video will feature an even faster hopper (halo B or Y-board Evo2), LP Maxflo 88 Stubby, and Kapp Volumizer (we're gonna see how low we can get this thing)

Expect to see that within the next 3 weeks.

[WDPboy49854]

keep up the good work dude, im followin it like a true fan...lol well i think wdp should send you a check, you convinced me to buy a speed, it will be here in 2 days...i will try to make a vid of equal quality...lol

[Tempest261]

lol well i think wdp should send you a check,

lol- do me a favor and let Frazer (and the rest of WDP) know that. Maybe they'll sponsor my college team. We'd be happy to use 100% WDP equipment.

[WDPboy49854]

haha i would support ya, i seriously think you should get some $$$ you convinced me and prolly many others to buy speeds, but if you need a reference ill support ya to Frazer

[Tempest261]

yeah we're just college kids (aka we're always strapped for cash) so need all the support we can get. Thanks dude ;)

[Big D]

Dang, that thing spitts a rope!

[WDPboy49854]

haha well dude keep me posted on your vids, they are awesome

[billybob]

Vids are mucho good man.
I want a Speed... now to get some money: (

[ghengis]

You have my support tempest!! :) convinced me!
