well, im over halfway through going through every contact thread every made on HoP, and on the way to organising all the links in one convenient thread for everyone from newbies to gods.

why?
when i was living in newcastle [Oz] for 6 months - being the only member of the fire crew with regular computer access [bloody hippies!] and the only wierdo trying to learn contact staff i became pretty familiar with all the threads and vids.

but while im still editing and compiliing all the info - i figured id better check - is anyone else doing this at the moment?

theres so much info to go through!

well. i should have sorted through everything my the weekend so the update links list should be there then.

cheers,
ed.

Well done, Y'all Keep up the good work with the moves list smile

see, when a site says streaming to me, I read it as, 'this is a challenge to whoever can hack this site and download the video'.



usually I don't bother and just mirror the site using wget. I love linux, and uni backbones.

might be the biggest thing to you, but I haven't seen it yet. When A site says streaming to me, it also says: 'if you can't hack this site and download the video, you're not going to get to see it Muhahahahahahah!'. Suffice to say, I don't have Flash 7.0. Bastards. I may have to give up and watch it on windows.

Twirlers.net seems like a well configured server as well. I don't think it will do anything but stream. double bastards.

You're not supposed to say I missed stuff, you're suppose to say what I missed. (Plus the descriptions aren't finished yet. And won't be if you keep distracting me. )

oh well, off to e-mail the admin....

Yeah, you've definitely missed some stuff. Or is it definiativelly?

tongue tongue tongue

biggrin

Good skills mate, that's well impressive.

I disagree about watching the staff thought - touch receptors tell you *everything* you need to know. Practise with your eyes closed as much as possible. It'll be worth it when you want to play with two sticks anyway...

And I thought your chosen technique was to stare at your feet, not the staff

nana nana nana

Once again, nice one!

And give me a shout if you get the baton twirling stuff scraped off their site... I might even swap it for a strictly confidential look at the first part of the Yellow People video... cool

Oh yeah, and love the super-slack doubles section - "just do it all with two sticks"... maybe you can condense the whole contact section into "do some stuff without gripping the staff"?

well I did condense normal spinning into 'self-explainatory'! biggrin

You go write one on YOUR style of doubles then... And everybody else would have to write one on their own style.... I don't have that knowledge yet... I was just giving people ideas, not outlining every move. (or even any)

My FEET ARE VERY INTERESTING!

and why do you tell me I've missed stuff but not what???!?!?!?!???!?!?!

ARGH!

yes, but I still can't use that since I'm on a uni computer, why did you think I couldn't install flash 7?

And that site it refers to is entirely streaming, as is the site the .asf files that stream from the asx files. Bastards. frown

wait till the video comes out and buy it, its impossible to go from a low res image to a high res one as the extra information you are "creating" is just an interpolation of the low res image its like looking at a spiral end on so you can only see a circle and trying to interpolate the image into the spiral. theres a posibility that they have a high res version somewhere on their server but the amount of effort not to mension illegalofftojailwithyouladdytobesomebodysbitch factors make it not quite worth it

I got the .asf from the re-director asx with Project URL Sniffer but cant seem to capture the stream using the mms url.

Have been using Streambox VCR with mucho succes up until now but it appears to be stumped.

Will try HD, nice one Ben (I can only find a 30 day trial of this lovely looking gear though)

mplayer, duh - I should have known.

Nah, just e-mail them nicely, and if not, then get you hacker 'friends' to do it for you. However there probably won't be high res versions on that site. Why would they do the editing on the same computer as the server? And if they did have high res versions, why not make them availible?

having seen one: [censored] - they are super tiny. And she seems to be favouring angel rolls a lot. Other than that: Goddamn it's tiny!

and in answer to glass: yes we've seen all these tricks before, but not as smoothly and not as connected. I thought you said they had new tricks? (I have only seen one video - but i think glass hasn't read my entire list tongue )

ok so the second program net transport on
https://all-streaming-media.com/site-arch...-real-video.htm

does the job fine and dandy (being at a net cafe makes it a bit pointless for me to stream and capture them all but i just had to check due to miss megs lack of faith) im sure the first one works to but i couldnt find a download button straight away so onto the next one it was.

tongue to ben.



mplayer works under linux for streaming and playing and capturing and reencoding. What doesn't mplayer do?



I suppose I could batch file stream, capture and reencode them into something decent like mpeg, but I don't know if my 'site' would have the bandwidth to deal with the demand, or the nessessary illegally of it. Would be fun though... biggrin



Somebody important would have to tell me to do it, then I could deny all responsibilty for my actions. go on.... wink ubbrollsmile biggrin
