some people were recording commentary on the 2nd stream as far as i know. and I believe commentary was recorded along with the game when the commentary was on the game stream. so I guess its a matter of remembering/finding out who was on commentary for each game and PMing them to see whether anyone recorded it. This seems to be something not thought about when setting up this marathon (no one's fault, it was set up in a short time and was very successful i think). So perhaps in the future (if this type of marathon happens again) keep track as the marathon is going on who recorded what and keep that on record. just an idea...
As it goes for my run (lara croft and the guardian of light), puwexil did record commentary and I have the recorded run as well, both are uploaded and ready to be encoded. as for other runs, i dont know.
RKA footage now up. The not ready file is just a minute of me failing to set up the race. I just included it in there for the sake of being complete. The races I hosted don't have any commentary on them. I know someone else (I think tjp) was hosting the commentary for the Prime race, and Romscout thinks lag.com was hosting the commentary for Contra III and SOTN.
The torrent: I stopped torrenting because it looks like there's two seeds and Nate got it. If I'm wrong, I can restart the torrent.
NXRunner: A lot of runs have commentary in the video. I know all of my runs do.
tjp7154: I'd say it's worth uploading. Better to have some commentary than none at all.
I have what appears to be the commentaries to Metroid Prime 1 (possibly 2 as well?) and SMG (Super Mario Galaxy?), which is split into 3 parts for some reason. Together it's over 2GB, so I guess I could either torrent it or if anyone knows how to handle .f4vs and get them into a real codec or something, that would work as well. Currently, I can't even get them to play in anything to check what they are.
Sorry to be so late to doing this, didn't find where FME was saving the videos until tonight, even though I thought I was pretty thorough in my search before.
Aftermath: Handbrake is a wonderful thing. You could use that to encode them and see what they are (the default on it is MP4s i believe). but, I dont know what the encoders would like to have, though others have been uploading .f4v files. nate also mentioned that you can torrent the files to him, so PMing him would also be the way to go.
If you use and happen to have trouble with Handbrake, PM me and I'll help you out
I have a question: does anyone know where I can find the 61-star Super Mario Galaxy marathon run? I missed it and still haven't had an opportunity to see it. It's not on Nuage13's channel and I can't find it elsewhere on YouTube. I don't mean to be a bother, but it seems so easy to find almost everything else and yet this one run is arbitrarily elusive.
Edit: I should probably be asking this instead: has anyone even recorded yoshifan's SMG run?
Oh! Sorry for not following up on this at all till now, but I still have my Super Mario Galaxy run from JRDQ - it's recorded on DVD, LP quality. About 3 hours and 3 GB.
I was thinking of encoding it in Anri-chan myself, but if a HQ encode is preferred, then I don't think I have the disk space to make the New Master File right now. Maybe I could torrent someone the DVD files instead of uploading them to a site?
(Also, good to see the commentary's there, I was wondering if it was saved.)
