AGDQ 2012 Video Sync Thread - All Runs Available

REMake so far has the audio synced with the video. I'm only halfway through the video, though. Great job to UraniumAnchor and all of the helpers. Keep up the great work! Smiley

I need opinions on Twin Snakes before I throw it into the encoder:

A bit of a problem: I was syncing up Super Meat Boy, and it seems the DVD recording is missing the last 8 or so minutes of gameplay. Is there any way we can recover it, or are we stuck.

He're my sync points anyways, hopefully we can re-grab the dvd footage though:

I think I'm going to bump the gamma on the quake encode, it's pretty dark as is and I recall people complaining about it on the stream chat. Here's a sample:

Any objections?

Maybe I'm weird and purist, but I like the darker look. I wasn't around for Quake, so I wouldn't know what chat was saying.

I like that level.

I don't even remember the game being that dark WHILE I PLAYED IT, though I guess knowing all the maps by heart does somewhat preclude having to see it.

I remember it looking significantly darker in the xsplit preview than it did on the computer you were playing it on, so that's probably why.

Uploading several new files from the office connection, mostly higher quality stuff of existing runs. Check back throughout the day.

Edit: Well, Twin Snakes SHOULD have been up by now, something must have gone wrong back home. I'll check it when I get back in a few hours.

My feelings on The Demon Rush

I said this in the highlights and bloopers thread, but forgot to say it here, Sub-Terrania is synced.

EDIT: ~~Okay, I forgot to check track 2, the game audio, and that track is slightly delayed, but I wouldn't bother resyncing because almost no one is going listen to the game audio-only track.~~ Nevermind, it seems okay, I don't know what I was thinking.

DXHR and a couple of runs with better audio sync are uploading. Hopefully I can knock out some more encodes tonight, but we'll see.

You guys are awesome for getting these up. Seriously, so many props. I feel bad even asking, but is it possible to prioritize the runs earlier in the marathon? I intend to watch them in order, and I'd hate to think of the wait that Portal 2 being the last upload would mean.

If the run's not up yet there's probably a technical reason for it. I'm trying to work in order as much as I can, but some of the runs are having problems. Some minor, some major. Nothing insurmountable yet.

Sonic block (mq versions at least) will be going up a little later.

I'll try to get Portal 2 up tomorrow, but I need to make some changes to my workflow before I can. It's a special case since it's going to be double-wide (1280x480).

Plays games in slow mode.

This is not an informed opinion but maybe the delay in uploading Portal 2 is because it was done on PC and PC runs are harder to encode
or something? Oh, I guess its a double recording as well.

Yeah, it's harder to sync double recording stuff, which is why none of the races have been uploaded yet.

While what Mike said about races is true, it's only somewhat related to why Portal 2 was giving me trouble. The good news is that it's synced and in the encoding queue now. The bad news is that there's a bunch of HQ/IQ stuff in front of it, so it might not get uploaded until tomorrow night.

Edit: Apparently I'm a liar. It should be up later tonight. When I restarted the encoding script Portal 2 came up first.
