In my attempt to make the front page grow more and more, I wanted to test a way to play streaming video on a web page, without so many painful settings and whatever.
First, I was trying out FLV flash movies. They had to be down-sampled to 30 fps (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_rate) and the quality wasn't always gonna be great, especially if you remember what Youtube videos look like. >U<
Then I tried to convert my clips to MP4. The frame rate (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_rate) stayed at 60 fps, and even the quality set to 500 kbps looked neat. ^^

You see which game that is? It's a Playstation game lol. owob
I'm sorry if the video starts too slow, but wait a while, it WILL play.
I hope there's some code I can write or something to make it pre-load the movie instead of waiting. o.o;
Anyway, I'm gonna use this streaming video player for all kinds of guidance, you know, like walkthroughs and boss fights. ^.^ And now that I can play Playstation games in 60 fps (thanks TAS community owo), look forward to some MM Legends too. :3 I'm working on adding PSP clips too, especially for MMPU and MHX cutscenes, boss fights and Challenge Mode. ^^
You like this idea? And you like the quality of the video?
-
It's a great idea! And after the Video FINALLY loaded for me I saw that the quality is actually pretty damn good! The only downside I saw was the loading time. Grat idea Vix!
-
Do we provide walkthroughs and FAQs as well? Otherwise it seems kind of excessive for our kind of site..
-
FAQs sounds good. A text+image guide will be typed next to the video, or there will be a link to the video that you can click. That might cause less stress on the loading. I'll think of a way to make less loading on the page. o.o;
-
I'd be willing to provide some FAQ videos, if you'd like.

Woo~ Rockman Anniversary Collection...
And cool idea Vixy.
I approve and loved the video quality. owob
-
Quality is awesome. Vixy, you ROCK, man. pun intended.
-
The only downside I saw was the loading time.
I used a tool called MP4box, and now the movie will stream right away, no more waiting~ >U<
-
Hey Vixy, if you tell me the tools that you use during recordings. I may start recording fangame videos for Rockman PM. I may not be a top-notch player but I want to be use to the community.
-
Absolutely amazing idea. Converting the clip in to mp4 format is a good idea. Well if you can get over the problem of slow loading well you have a winner there. Could you share the codes here?

On a completely unrelated note, when did we get embedding? Like this:

The JW Player embed on the forum? Wow I wish I knew how.
I don't know the code for loading a video clip (yet), but I can embed the player at least. >U<
