NEW: Digital Murder - Just a touch of funk. A great funk music video. Has the "James Brown official seal of approval". Best experienced in combination with some heavy dancing (make sure no one sees you). enjoy ;)

Rarefluid : really cool work, thanks for all those videos :)

Thanks. This is my way of contributing to the scene I guess, though I still want/need to make a demo one day...

Goatard is not that nice actually. Compressed pretty badly.

Yeah, I've been to lazy to add all the videos I did. But here comes the INTRO INFERNO:

NEW: Komplex - Cyboman 2 - lots of delicious donuts in this '94 piece

NEW: Haujobb - fukwit daddy - the b/w TP '99 winner

NEW: Haujobb - mother, mother! fukwit daddy! - the sequel from 2002. contains fireworks

...with more to come...

keops: will surely give jumpy a try.

more intros:

NEW: Replay - Forms - forms may shape <3

NEW: ate bit - Pimp my Spectrum - Some serious ZX pimpin!

oh, and sadly:

- jumpy crashes...
- platipus needs Win98 compatibility and thus won't work with kkapture...

all emulator captures, right?

personally i completely fail to see the point in capturing a demo that will run fine in an emulator. it's much more useful and effective to educate people about using emulators then to debate capture quality of such demos... not to mention the bandwidth involved.

also, normally i would go for h264 without a second thought. however, i read that you have added subtitles to the h264 captures, a complete no-no imho [thou shalt not interfere with the original demo]

havoc:

I personally like to watch some demo videos from time to time without the hassle of firing up an emulator, trying hours to find a combination of working settings and so on. And believe me, with some DOS demos this is really an issue! Also emulators tend to be very slow...

The last 4 are actually captures of Win32 demos... ;) but in a few years they won't run in Windows4711 anymore or have other problems... e.g. "Kolor - libgov" required a Nvidia card, which I don't have at home, so I did a capture.

I'd go for h.264 completely too, but people started complaining they were'nt able to watch the videos because of slow computers, so I provide Xvid captures too...

I do not interfere with the original demo, the subtitles are streams you can turn on if you want to, not encoded into the video...

good work rarefluid!

rarefluid: hmm, to be honest, when i was writing that message, i thought i was looking at the fix me beatiful thread. in other words, i was under the impression you added a dozen or so videos within 24 hours. scrolling back in this thread, however, i notice that's not the case whatsoever. so please disregard that previous comment i wrote.

concerning subtitles, i'm still somewhat doubtful. even if the user doesn't get to see subtitles unless he presses the button, his viewing experience will be influenced (slightly) when he does turn on subtitles. perhaps my reluctance can be explained by the fact that i was born in a country where every monkey with 2+ hours of MTV viewing experience is immediatly hired to write subtitles (f.e., this morning discovery channel subtitles said charlemagne lived in the 7th century BEFORE christ... argh). then again, you are a native speaker who seems to have a clue about demoscene, so i look forward to being proven wrong.

I though my excellent denglisch would instantly give me away as a German, but thanks anyway... ;)

A little clarification on the subtitle thing: They show just very basic information about the demo. Group, title, OS, production type (demo, intro, ...) and release year and party. Thy only show up if explicitly enabled and go away after 10 seconds.
This is just to add some permanent information to the video, because when the file is downloaded, renamed, whatever this information stays in the video. Same thing goes for the iTunes tags...

Example:
BB Image

I was thinking about adding some machine specific information too, like "ran on a 80386/DX40" or something...

sounds all good to me, as long as it's objectively verifiable data and no journalism i have no further objection :)

about the language thing, ever since ich in deutschland wohne i'm kind of in de war all the time ;P

Kein "journalism". Versprochen! :)

srsly, i would expect a better argumentation from the scene.org pr representative...it is not that long ago that you removed and/or refused our videos for similar reasons, after all.
