Organising a sweat session, need some tips

[David]

Most of the online tutorials I use on nettuts.com are done with Camstasia I think.

heres my 2c worth...
camstudio is unknown to me shall compare.

www justintv.com and http://www.ustreams .com

broadcast live [record] rebroacast from save files. [ you can viewin realtime ala video conferenceing if needed.

you need a video camera /mic and can comment as u play your hand. [ it could be used to net broadcast your homie games if your wish bit like a homegrown tv broadcast.].

the recorded file can be reviewed by members/public at will ..

as i have not trialled at length ,Davids point of bandwidth and computer capacity could a an issue but ive trailed a broadcast from my hard drive
and viewed it on my laptop and have the capacity to ' live chat' oppsite the screen in real time..

An idea ...subject to venue /league approval 'live net broadcast of away/final games could be possible my biggest weakness is in camera capacity to read the cards on tables /dealt lighting and etc. I have a trail file of my winning a FT prize package to Sydney.

David ..Murrin Media interest ??

[Josh R]

Definitely interested and spoke with Aaron about it, Sweats over msn just dont work lol
Teamviewer or something seems the way to go

found this instructional video on how to make a small wmv file.

this guy gets it down to around 100 meg for an hour, with awesome quality, which is just insane.


i am gonna try and get this going over the weekend if i have time.

it looks like it takes a bit of time to set up, but once all of the settings are set up, you wont ever have to change them.

i also found a post on 2p2 that does it in a slightly different way. the files are bigger, but its a little simpler in the setup. i reckon the video above is the way to go about it. if you take a little time and get it set up properly the first time, then it will be better for everyone.

i prolly wont have time this weekend (ripping up tiles in the house) but someone should give this a go and post it for us to have a look at and make some comments.


megaupload (google it) is a decent place to upload your files

hopefully we can get to a point where we can share videos and collectively improve our games.

Some of the videos on Deuces Cracked are 50 - 60 mb for an hour and a bit.

Some of the videos on Deuces Cracked are 50 - 60 mb for an hour and a bit.

they probably use professional software though.

everything the guy uses is free, and he obviously isn't a professional, so the quality is pretty awesome for free stuff.

but by all means, if you know software/settings that will do it better, than i am all ears!

[muzzington]

I've made some gaming movies before and it's not that hard to make some basic videos. Some people used to do like 90 mb for 6 minutes with some a lot of action on screen, I imagine you'd get an hour or more of just poker play + sound for that.

[bennymacca]

its obv not that hard to make vids, but the point is to find some good settings that allow an hour or more within a decent file size.


is anyone gonna kick us off my making a video?

[bennymacca]

watched this vid in my lunch break today.

its 6 tabling NL50, but his reasoning is very good, and the way he plays induces them to spew a few times. very good vid.
