Liked it :up:

I have actually never finished watching the show since it was pretty bad comparing it with the game.

Guess I'l give this show another try.

Don't bother. The anime is terrible for anything but editing (because it's pretty, unlike the actual ToS in-game animation).

But thanks for you feedback :up:

I didn't really like the effects that you used in the beginning and the end of the video.
Good scene selection. I liked what you did with the flashbacks/memories.

It was pretty good though ^_^

And really ? I didn't think the show was that bad.. I guess that's because I haven't played the game haha.

I loved this, but then again, I'm impartial because TOS is my favvvvvv *fangirlness* Anyways, I personally liked the film effect, but the quality isn't the best, as usual from Mac users. >: Poor you guys, it's just not as obvious how to render properly on Macs imo. Anyways, me liked. <3

Bull. Please don't make across the board statements like this about what amounts to an entire platform. Rendering depends upon the programs and codecs used. There is no reason why you should think that rendering in Mac OS X is any more or less intuitive than on windows. That's just wrong.

I haven't watched the video yet, but now I will.

MPEGStreamClip or SimpleMovieX should be more than sufficient, granted you feed it the right information.

I've done just about everything I can think of with MPEG Stream Clip. If you have any advice then please, share. Also, please note my exporting difficulties up above (damn the Adobe Media Encoder O:<), since that's where most of my quality loss seems to be occurring.

Well, I'm assuming you haven't read my sticky, because if you had, you would know that my immediate question is directed at your parenthetical statement: just what are you exporting out as? You should never export out lossy. Never, ever, ever. Always lossless or uncompressed. If you are sticking an ugly encode into StreamClip, then garbage in garbage out. No surprise there.

Well, how about instead of poking fun at my incompetence in the realm of compression, you direct me to said sticky? I am a total forum noob, as previously noted :P Especially your "garbage in garbage out". I'm well aware I'm putting garbage into MPEG Stream Clip - I just don't know how to 'cut the crap', so to say.

I'm one of the people least likely to be "poking fun at [your] incompetence." I meant everything I said quite seriously, and quite without malice. First thing I need to know is what kind of mac you are running, and I will tailor you a response, since my sticky is slightly behind my recent research.

Oh... sorry. I just kinda assume everyone makes fun of me - it happens. If that wasn't the case, then I appreciate your thoughtful response (for real).

I'm on a Macbook, OSX... I'm not entirely sure what information you're asking me for. Do you want specs?
