    Or you could write your own video player using the media player built into windows to do this - after all I did and it didn't take much time at all.

    Just think if the "Profanity delay" option worked on threads like it works for video. I could hit the stop button and the Spenk comments would disappear. Like my own custom thread. Only the good stuff. Wow that would be great.

    No video system does "Broadcast Profanity Delay" more simply than this. The last 3 seconds remain forever unshared.

    Wait, isn't that exactly why you hate other forums like Channel9 who censor your pos--- Oh, I get it... you only don't like censorship when they censor YOU. I guess when your ego is larger than Tyra Banks', Oprah's, Jerry Jones', and Kanye West's combined, you don't see your hypocricy.

    Now, why don't you do a screen reshoot demonstrating this profanity delay option. I'd love to see it.

    So the free speech advocate is now advocating censorship of things he doesn't like :D It must be hard to keep promoting SSRR when the only other person on here who has tried it can't make it work or perform basic tasks and you can't explain the results. I am still amused by the fact you confused my attempt to search with SSRR as a demo of merging files. I equally like your previously passive approach to censorship by just ignoring and not responding to things you don't like / can't explain - such as how the WDS video showed how easy searching was compared to the disaster that is SSRR.

     



  • Ok, so you want to start and stop the video recorder and then instruct your video player to skip certain lengths of certain segments of the video, and you're doing all of this to avoid directly editing the video. You do this because 1) you believe editing video is akin to censorship and information destruction, despite the fact that you're shutting off the camcorder anyway and you don't mind censorship of antiswamps; and 2) you believe that editing video forces you to recode the stream which necessarily introduces additional artifacting, despite the fact that you video record your monitor in order to "reshoot" clips together.

    Is this right? Have I left anything out of this analysis of self-defeat?

    Some things you just don't want to share or see.

    If someone you don't like goes by. Stop recording.
    If you might get sued. Stop recording.
    If someone says something nasty or threatening to the camcorder operator. Stop recording.

    The "golf", "mini-clip" and the "Pofanity Dlay / Csorship" options offer the videographer way more control through the on/off button than any other video app.

    No video software can touch Swamp video at the golf course or Wild Wild parties.

    Immediate video playback with no fear of ever seeing the last 3 seconds. What a life saver that PD/C option is. Whoo Hoo SSDS

    Wouldn't it be great if YouTube offered this feature. Then we could quickly send our unedited video. As long as we stop recording quickly. Come on YouTube do it for the Swampies.

    Probably because none of us have VB5 or think this is anything special. It wouldn't take more than 5 or 10 minutes to screenshot an existing application and build a ui that has labels / textboxes in the appropriate places and bind them to any underlying data source.

    Nope I was doing it strickly for Me. Early on: being able to show the problematic data to the new client through the email was a big plus for me. After the conversion they still wanted to see the old info. Which again was a big plus for me expecially when I gave them old work orders and transaction history just as easily. These simple dump programs were the building blocks of the conversions. Everytime. I'd strip out what wasn't applicable and include code from another file dump and use data from 2 or more files. Sometimes between steps a index key was added for easier access. or the file was sorted differently. 

    If I did 5 to 7 hundred dump files over the years. They were probably the building blocks of 3 to 5 times that many quickie test / audit programs. So I probably created 3 or 4 thousand bestest2 programs over the years.

    Of course,  because we know jackass comments only occur during the last 3 seconds of any video clip. Afterall, in sitcoms, the punchline is often just before they switch to another scene for comedic timing, so the same must be true for real-life candid videos, too!

    Amazingly I don't have an opinion here, only because I don't know enough about video formats and codecs to make a worthwhile opinion. However, I'll say this: The best video format most likely depends on the nature of the video and what you're trying to accomplish, in much the same way JPG, PNG, and GIF image formats each have their strong points and weaknesses.

  • Digital Video ShowDown - SSDS wins

    That will settle it. A showdown. Once and for all. For digital video supremacy. I never heard a whisper of any video player that could touch SSDS in all my travels at video forums. Sadly I'm not allowed back at most of those sites. When you lay a good whipping on someone they just don't forgive and forget.

    Yup I'm pretty sure Me and my Swampies can easily put down any challenge. Where would these challenges come from. SpenkSwamp & MedezarkSwamp? Microsoft? Apple? Bring 'em on.

    I don't know which option we should hit them with first.

    The wild wild party video (like the beer commercials) and the PD/C option blocking all the XXX parts

             or

    The "Golf" option. Earning money at the golf course with 90+ women and a fancy supper thrown in.

    Both playable within 10 minutes of Vido capture. Nobody is faster Nobody is simpler Nobody is better Nobody is cheaper.

    It would be nice to have at least 5 or more participants. I'm sure we all would learn something about sharing knowledge with video.

    Sign up SSDS for one of those positions. Any Swampies out there? I could use some help with the Wild Wild party thing.

    There must be Thousands of software apps in this category. Who is your money on?

  • :(

    No really, what are we comparing?  Believe me, "usability" is not the fight you want to pick, Mr. Crash-Enter-Enter-Enter-GF-XXX-C:\search.

    Measuring how quickly the user can view videos on his or her computer is a laudable metric, but completely divorced from SSRR.  They have to make the video, connected the camcorder to the machine, and download it via manufacturer-supplied software or from the camcorder acting as a USB drive or something.  That's just to view them on the computer's monitor, and no SSRR is involved.  At this stage, the manufacturer-supplied software is either already playing the video complete with simple editing features, or the user just double-clicks on the local video file's icon and is watching it in their default media player.  If they want to edit the video, then they'd want to use a video editor, not open up a control file in Notepad and guess at the start and stop times, then have the hassle of figuring out how on earth to use search.exe while scratching their heads over what a search program has to do with video editing.  By editing the video and saving it to a new video file, they can share the video with their friends and enemies on the internet without having to make everyone deal with SSRR.

    So is the "replay last X seconds" or "skip last X seconds" really the killer feature on which you want to hang SSRR's reputation?

    By hitting the ENTER key the video is paused and the number of seconds is displayed in the form header. When searching for aliens I stop and start the videos lots. Maybe I'll demonstrate the alien hunting capabilites of Swamp Video...


  • In most all video players that I know, the user can mash the spacebar to pause the video. (Although if I recall correctly, WMP uses something retarded like ctrl+p.  Not sure if this is still true.)  VLC in particular does indeed show the the elapsed time on the screen; with others you might have to look at the little progress/position slider thingy.

    Of course, with a real video editor, you can march up to the correct frame and start snipping away from there, all in the convenience of one complete package. With a non-linear video editor, you can even snip out parts, visually move them to other parts of the video, and do other sorts of fancy effects.

    That way you can smoosh all your alien footage together to show off to non-believers via YouTube et al without having to force SSRR onto the user and without having to wade through hours of boring clouds.

    Alright, the showdown is on! Alright, so I downloaded a movie filled with clouds and then double clicked the file. VLC was my default video player and it played the video. I hit SPACE SPACE SPACE and it paused and played the video like a dream. Boy do I love VLC player.

    Next, I tried SSDS. First of all, there was no way for me to even set SSDS as a default video player for my file, so double clicking the file to open it in there was already impossible. So, I went to SSDS, and it almost immediately crashed. I executed SSDS again and found myself looking at a prompt that was so cryptic I just started mashing buttons in frustration. After hitting ENTER ENTER ENTER it played some random song from my mp3 collection followed by the mysterious words, "Got hat pie nodded?" displayed in yellow text on a god awful teal background. I then shut SSDS down again and decided to try it for real this time. I decided to follow your instructions. First I type 'gf' for golf, right? Then I hit ENTER... then I realized I needed to open notepad and put the path to the video in and save it as a random txt file. So I entered the path to that random txt file and guess what? It crashed again! At this point I gave up and decided to just open the damn file in VLC again to see the pretty clouds and then I realized I was still on the clock and needed to get back to work,

    So, once again, you lose the showdown. VLC is much better at hunting compression artifacts. So so much better. I really do love VLC. Even its safety cone icon is so so so much prettier than your default VB5 icon. Just wait til us VLCies spread the word about this app... oh wait, it already has thousands of people supporting it, both as developers and as users!

    WMP, VLC or just about any media player can play instantly once the video is on the computer. Without editing index files by hand either, 10 minutes is probably 9 minutes and 54 seconds (approx) longer that it would take to play a video in WMP. WMP is free, that is cheap enough. VLC is free, that is also cheap enough. SSRR may be free in money terms but the effort and time is far too much to pay.

    For the tobacco leaf one. I'll set up the playlist.txt and make sure the pics that identify the action area before each clip begins are posted somewhere, if they aren't already. I know they are kicking about. Random will find them.

    So just out of common courtesy "I'M CALLING YOU ALL OUT"

    How about a dance-off? I think that would be more entertaining.

    I had my Official dance jacket on yesterday. Almost broke out into some fancy steps.

    No competition yet for the Digital Video ShowDown. Sponsorship $$$$ and Gifts could change that. 

    I'll visit some of the other Player sites: BSPlayer, VLC and RockPlayer to start. The visit is usually a ONE time thing as calling out their video techies seems to be a BANNING offence on most sites.

    Besides the "golf" and "XXX" features I'll do a demo on how to use Swamp Video to show off Trophy Faster Than Sight FTS video. I'll use the Tobacco leaf flyer video as an example. If the home user downloads the original video at:

    I'll post the various other text files so that it will run from a USB stick. None of the other contestants will allow for such easy home participation.

    I think you would need to at least set some rules before you could call it a competition. I also suspect you won't be taken seriously as SSRR is a really shoddy front end to windows media player anyway.

    I think you will find acting like an arrogant prick / being a troll is a banning offence not disagreeing with people.

    Nothing special about your golf feature, wasn't a lot of effort to copy. No idea what your xxx feature is but I do believe most media players can play porn.

    Media player is installed and works, that is easier as it has no text files. vlc is a free download that just works as well. That seems easy for "home participation" to me.

     



  • Also, dare I ask, what's with the picture of the leaf in the wind?

    Is that an example of your "faster than sight" business, or an example of a alien ship caught on video?
    What's so significant about "faster than sight", anyway?  All media players have pause!

    Even though it looks exactly like a leaf, behaves like a leaf and swampie refers to it as a "tobacco leaf flier" he also believes it to be a ufo. Obviously, no other leaf shaped things are ever seen moving through the air - therefore it must be evidence of aliens.

    No! Have you never listened to Swampy? It doesn't behave like a leaf, because it bends and flies at the same time. Real leaves either:

    • Are wet and thus don't fly, or
    • Are dry and thus don't bend.
    Therefore, if it was a real leaf, it would be wet and dry at the same time, which is a contradiction. It follows that it can't be a leaf, q.e.d.


  • Perhaps just parts of it are wet (the bendy parts), but overall it is still dry enough to achieve lift.  Although that wouldn't explain the extreme speed and altitude of these "leaves" flying around right next to the clouds (as indicated by their visual juxtaposition) ...

    I sort of liked where that sentence was going. Am I very bad?
