New MethodThere is the better method of recording which requires no extra codecs need to be installed for users and authors. Check this thread. You do not need anything extra to install to watch vids with '.wmv' extension. (Since 2008 December) The lower instructions are for the old method, but still is required to view old records in xvid format. RequirementsFiles are encoded by xvid, so you need a decoder (local mirror) to view it. (Or another media player called VideoLAN will also work out of the box, but it's been reported that fast forward won't work, so you have to watch at 1x speed till the end with it. Also it should be able to view by stream as well, if one can get enough bandwidth (250kb+/s) from this server, but again, no video skipping.) Please right click on link in each video page and do 'save-as' to download it. You should probably use some sort of download manager or a web browser other than IE, so that even if the download hangs up in the middle, you can continue on later. StreamingThe files are in AVI format, which is unfortunately not streamable. But if you want to take the challenge, go download a directshow filter (local mirror), which will make windows media player to be able to stream AVI files. But be WARNED the installer is in Japanese (anyone can find English version of such utility?), but keep pressing 'Enter' to complete the installation once you run the installer. (There is a start menu entry called 'pfsource' after the installation which contains the uninstaller link). Then launch windows media player and just simply click on the links (or press 'alt' to bring up menu in Windows Media Player and go to 'Files' - 'Open URL' and paste the video address in there) and files will stream instead of waiting for the whole file to get downloaded. But be WARNED that the bitrate of the video is over 250kb/s (do 'save-as' on the movie files and figure out your downloading speed), so, unless you get enough speed for it toward this server, the stream doesn't play too well, you're better off simply downloading it (though it'll take a while...). RecordingView the forum entry. If you know a way to turn AVI into a streamable media and/or a better way to distribute for streaming, please make a reply there. Or write a message to the guncam developer for adding a function to export the video as a streamable format. (I did and kindly got a deny... saying, no plan for near future.) UploadingCurrently not working I have set up a FTP server, so people can upload their own videos so I can host them as well. For more information, please refer to the forum post. MiscIf you think you did a lame ass job in a game record listed and want the vid to be vanished, let me know. |
