About This File

The idea of this set is to place the gameplay video in context, with the hardware of its time. A touch of nostalgia to better understand an unknown material especially for the youngest. Most of the montages use the EmuMovie gameplay videos. The others are mine.

This video set is also available in 4:3 ratio here

I also share the gameplay videos I create with the help of the community.
On EmuMovie FTP :       "Upload here > _Video Snap Submissions > Viking (Platform Video)"

If other people are interested in creating video for this set, here is a Mega link to download a 7zip archive with some source files that will help you stay in the graphical lines.

I just made a new video update. With PONG.
Now I'm at the end of EmuMovie videos. I deal with Youtube, but it's not easy to find good gameplay videos.

I need you ! Send me the gameplay videos, EmuMovie style, of platforms you want me to do !!!

@bundangdon Yep, DICE seems to be the emulator name.

If you are not comfortable with the video editing, 1 video for 1 game, it's OK for me. 4 to 6 games for 1 platform seems good. I'll do the editing myself.

@stephy : Thx !!!!!!  For PONG/Dice : I already make the video ;-)

Excellent work on these. Great to have the ones for the old 8-bit systems. If you ever find time you might consider

EACA Colour Genie

Enterprise

Memotech MTX 500/512

Thx !

  • EACA Colour Genie : I don't find a good quality picture. Good resolution, good perspective. If you have any in stock, please give it to me !
  • Enterprise : I don't have any gameplay video. If you have any in stock, give it to me !
  • Memotech MTX : The same, I don't have any gameplay video.

I need you ! ^_^

Hi @viking

I have the following videos if they are of any use

An MP4 platform video for the EACA Colour Genie
H264 640x480 25 fps 36.5 secs with sound

A collection of 16 MP4 game videos for the Enterprise
H264 320x240 30 fps of various lengths (29 secs to 37 secs) with sound

A collection of 9 MP4 game videos for the Memotech MTX 500/512
H264 320x240 25 fps of various lengths (20 secs to 50 secs) with no sound

And for the Colour Genie images these are the best I have without infringing.
One is Public Domain and the other is LaunchBox Dropbox repository.

@spycat Yes ! Thx !!!

I already have the video for the GENIE COLOUR. From EmuMovie.
For the other two, yes, with pleasure! Send them to me and I'll do the videos.

For the pictures, I had found the same. The perspective of the 1st is OK, but the resolution is very low. I did not find anything else. I'll do some testing.

Thank you for your help !!!

Hi @viking

Found an old set of mine of Memotech game videos with sound.

Where do I upload the zip with the game videos? Here or is there somewhere else?

 

viking

Cool ! 
You could upload with WeTransfert.com and post the link here ?

Awesome videos but one problem. Why does the audio sound a little bit 'filtered' (I think thats the correct word I'm looking for) on some or most or all of them?

viking

I dont touch the audio of the video. It is identical to the original videos. (Emumovie, Youtube, Community, ...)
It's come from your player ? Same problem with VLC, WMP, in or out BigBox?

Hi @viking

So I went to WeTransfert but this just shows the wiped blackboard screen with some text and no way to interact with the page.

Tried WeTransfer and I can upload my zip but I then need to specift an email address to sent it to.

Just send it to your own email and then from that you will get a URL web link that you can post here

its the same in all the players and in and out bigbox but the original videos dont have that audio problem. if u wear headphones and listen to the original psp video and then listen to ur version of the psp video, u'll hear the original sounds clearer than ur one but i guess if u use speakers then u probably wont hear any difference. I don't no how to explain the weird sound effect i hear from ur videos. But who knows, maybe its something wrong on my side.

@Azgorath : Damn, you're right!

I do my export from After Efect in AAC, in high quality.ae.JPG.54feda3eb1faf9801c0e1b1addc89040.JPG
Then I launch my videos in VidCoder, to win in weight and allow the preview in LaunchBox. vidCoder.thumb.JPG.1bc087378c844b868cde1e5753e44229.JPGI dont know what else I can do.
And to be honest, I dont have the courage to redo all the 200 video export (x2 ratio)
Sorry for the problem ... :$:(

The video is not my specialty at all. I'm a CGI guy ...

I've downloaded the Famicom Disk System video and there's a clear line at the edge where you add the extra padding for the 16:9 video. Would it be possible to fix?
