Ride videos!!!!

[hitogoroshi]

Hi ! Can anyone tell me, where and how to get good quality ride videos!! I, like you guys, am a total WDW fanatic, but living in Germany, I don´t have the chance too often to go on the rides in person!! Videos would help me through the year!!! Thanks a lot!!!! Greets, Hito

LoL...wouldnt that just make the videos just as small?

heh...

I personally HATE real-media format and prefer DivX (almost lossless in most cases) and there is also a new quicktime codec that I am beta testing thats AMAZING...COMPLETE lossless quality and 50% compression (so far)...the only problem is the final product will not be free...

Just Wondering, Where do you get this DivX software? I've downloaded a few movies (avi), and they all need this, and I can't figure out where to download it.

By the way, I have a number of ride videos from both Disney and Universal. If I get a good number of people to request some, I'll feel justified to wait the 20 minutes that it takes to send, so, If you want some, send your email address to a private message to me, and I should send a few of them out soon...Any requests of what I should send first (i may or may not have it).

I want to have a video of THE GREAT MOVIE RIDE. Does anyone have a video? I know they used to have one on Disney World Channel but that site has been down for about two years. :sohappy:

LoL..normally Id agree...but as an animator...I can tell you we religeiously use quicktime for almost EVERYTHING we do..and movie trailers will almost certainly be an Apple only thing....for at least a good 2 more years...

Lucky me! That means that I could watch them on my mac!

well if someone would fund me to have a new mini dv camera id record all the rides and slap them into the ol pc edit and burn dvds for all BUT dreams are dreams one day Ill do that

ok, here's a video test... if this works out, i'll start uploading more video clips... i tried to get the file size down as small as possible, while still keeping the quality decent.

this test is a 5min clip of the fist act from carousel of progress. it's an 8.85MB download (which is quite a reduction from it's original 74MB size).

it's an .wmv file

please let me know what you think if you download it... don't knock the camera work too much, i was trying to be inconspicuous (spelling?) while filming...

if this works out good, i'll start uploading all the disney footage i have (quite a bit).

well, give it a go and let me know what you think

Good ol unreliable 56k (DSL/Cable arent offered in my building yet...if I moved next door id have it..go figure)

 

[popkid]

damn! sorry to heat about that Now.... hmmm, i guess i could put up different options for different bandwith, but it's really hard to get the file size smaller without the quality going to poo...

8.85mb isn't TOO bad on a 56k... figure around 3 to 4 min per MB.... actually wait a sec, that does stink...

LoL..Dont worry about it...I have DLed FAR bigger files on this 56k..I would much rather have higher quality videos than smaller sizes

Thanks!! So far im getting good speeds from your FTP...the whole thing should take less than an hour (and Im lagging)...

Just an update...I just finished watching the video..and its GREAT quality...Thanks again popkid!!!
