Uh? Wow ..... umm might want to expand your search a tad ..... :roll: I don't search the org for romance AMVs unless they come up in the top 10% or top favorites. After getting burned by the romance category at many conventions over the years, and at Otakon specifically, I'm never actively seeking ...

Considering that typically a huge chunk of the submissions are romance and drama and sentimental videos, getting rid of it would probably anger editors since their already slim chances of getting in are near nil. And well, lets face it females tend to like romance more than guys and the org is very...

It's hard enough to sit through 30 videos anyway, but there are other events or panels I would miss within that 2 - 2 1/2 hours. It used to be that if the room wasn't totally packed you could sneak if after the romance catergory - particularily on the 2nd screening of the contest. But with people l...

This is sort of a month-late response... but oh well... It seemed to me that some of the speakers weren't working during this year's AMV contest. It was really hard to hear any of the dialog in the comedy videos - and I don't remember this being a problem in the past, even in the very same room. I a...

What, no Wesley Willis?

I surprised that there are absolutely zero Wesley Willis AMVs in the database. I thought he was really famous on the internets. One very simple AMV would be to set the opening of Speed Grapher to the Wesley Willis cover of "Girls on Film". If you've never heard it, it's in the iTunes store. Do the N...

Mysterious DBZ live-action infomercial

During the Iron Editor competition at Otakon 2005, one of the AMVs they played to entertain the crowd was a partially live-action infomercial style video about "The only DBZ video you'll ever need!" It was several years old and had a variety of songs that parodied popular songs used in DBZ AMVs. I'v...

In case anyone else ever searches for this thread and cares, I've figured out that Quicktime 6.5.1 won't play the videos in question, but Quicktime 7 will. Quicktime 7 only works with Tiger. I haven't upgraded from OS 10.3.5 so I'll just have to wait to see Wizard of Osaka goodness...

Both are AVI files (and both are new this year) neither will play in Quicktime, and I've downloaded the Wizard of Osaka twice already.

I swear it's some weird new codec.

Crazy VLC sound problem

I'm sorry if this is in the wrong area of the forum - but I'm having this problem where VLC Player does not correctly play the audio in the AMV "Wizard of Osaka" or the Eva "Nightmare" video. The picture quality is fine, but the audio seems to drop out a lot and sound really weird. I'd think it was ...
