Snow vs Leta on New Tornado

A big improvement, with more energy as advised. I did do another VOD alongside this but I feel it is kinda boring and monotone and long, besides taking me 2 hours to upload I'm not sure if it's worth pursuing.

Tips, Fixes and First Video Upload

I've had so many troubles trying to get this to work.

I was downloading games via keepvid.com in flash format, then recording in audacity, compressing in MP3QualityModifier and merging in movie maker (which doesn't come with windows 7). Alas the resulting file was 150 megs and vdub wouldn't compress that file type. Windows media encoder would compress it to 100 megs, but still this wasn't good.

So I saw on sc2gg.com that I should be recording using fraps/camtasia into an avi which I could then edit with vdub/audacity. Unfortunately windows 7 doesn't allow you to "record what you hear", so after messing around with my drivers in vain with drivermax and several reboots I found that you can go to Control Panel -> Sound -> Recording tab, then right click on the WHITE background of the window to find the hidden option "enable disabled devices". You enable and set "stereo mix" as default, and can now successfully "record what you hear" using audiacity. PHEW!!

My trouble didn't quite stop there, as audacity was now crashing every time I pressed the "stop" button. I fixed this, magically, by changing audacity's Preferences -> Quality -> Default sample format to "24-bit" instead of 32.

GOODNESS ME!!

So here is my first video upload on youtube: Best vs Kwanro (as featured in last entry). One thing to note is that after spending an hour uploading a video, you then have to wait for youtube to "process" it! Boy was I mad when I saw that.

Enjoy!

Best vs Kwanro on Match Point

I just watched go.go vs pusan on Diggity's account (funny), and realised that "intro filler" needn't necessarily be about starcraft. I re-started this recording about 5 times because I kept stalling in the first few seconds, but it turned out well.

Fantasy vs Guemchi on Roadrunner

A very fast-paced game in which one of the players seemed indecisive and confused about how to use his units, which really didn't help my commentating!!
