Exhibition:

Creamy Pirates 26, The OC 19

Star of the game was Candy Maldanado, who was 5-6 with 2 HR, 6 RBI and 6 runs. Also big ups to Vince Coleman, whose pinch hit three-run jack broke open a close game in the eighth inning.

Don Mattingly was the hitting star for The OC, going 3-5 with a homer and 6 RBI.

Holy shit!  Nothing but slugfests, I love it.  I gotta get a new computer or expand this one somehow...gotta have the capability of messing with this stuff.

WARNING - stupid strange questions:

is there any way to actually record a game played on a rom?  I realize it's probably impossible but asking stupid questions is my specialty

is there any way to actually record a game played on a rom?

Someone just asked this hte other day, I think.  FCEUltra can't do it, at least that I know of, but if you're willing to experiment with another emulator, NESticle can do it, as can one other one that I can't remember right now.  Check some recent threads on the RBI board.

I know that NNNesterJ can so it (which is a really easy to use emulator, by the way). It can record a game to an AVI file, although I'm not sure how big that file would be.

Also, if you have a screen capture program, many of them can also record video of what's happening on-screen, whicih would be good for using with FCE Ultra. If you don't have one, go to download.cnet.com and search for "Screen Recorder".

OK, I recorded the first few innings of an Exhibition Game between myself and Ultimate7. I compressed the video, which makes it play faster, but also is much, much smaller. A similar amount of game (first two innings, about 6 minutes of game time) recorded uncompressed (at normal speed and resolution) was 700 MB - this is around 32 MB.

Instead of doing the live broadcasts of the game, I might instead just post videos of the games. Would you guys rather see:

a) Full, uncompressed videos of the entire game (normal speed and quality, very large file size)
b) Compressed videos of the entire game (fast speed, lesser quality, much smaller file size)
c) Uncompressed highlight packages of each game - I have Adobe Premiere Pro on my computer, and I don't mind doing a 60 second highlight package on the game instead of posting all nine innings.

Thoughts?

the whole game --

let's us review some of our players better

EDIT:  let us us review some of our players better?  No, lets us review some of our players better.

Awesome, we are making great use of technological advancements.

TeamSuck 17 TeamBlow 10

Didn't see much, but did get to see Steve Lake come off the bench to hit a 3 run homer for team blow.

If you are going to do full games, you cannot do uncompressed video.  If 2 innnings is 700 megabytes, you are talking 3-4 gigabytes of data for one game.  That is fucking huge, I've never downloaded something that large before.  It's close to a full DVD download and would take many many hours to get from a broadband connection...

[fightonusc]

Yeah, it's definitely going to need to be compressed. Since it's creating things in AVI, I'm going to either a: need to reformat it to mpg (since you can't post AVIs as an attachment here or b: set up a Myspace account to handle AVI downloads. Let me work on it and get back about it.

[fightonusc]

MPGs are by definition really big, so I'm definitely going to need to find a way to host these videos, which means I might as well turn them into Qucktime files. Does anyone know of a good free site to host video files for download?
