Ok, thanks. :) Beta:http://www.talesofauli.com/XX-Final-BetaTestXviD.avi
the quality actually isn't too terrible considering it's only 125 MB for 22 minutes. O.o (Still waiting on topstar's segment, but that's the only part where there is only audio and no video.)

Things I'd like you guys to check:
1. SYNC. There are a couple of segments (JudgeHolden's and Eva-fan's in particular) that I had to play around with a little bit to get them to work, so if they're out of sync at all, let me know and I'll try to fix it!
2. Please check the information in the first post to make sure it's right concerning your segment. That's what I'll be using to make the ending credits! (Kira, going to fix yours in just a sec. :) )
3. Segment placement. If you think that the placement of a segment just doesn't work, or the transition, please let me know, and suggest an alternative if you can!
4. Sony, could you send me just the audio from your segment? For some reason it's really, really quiet. I tried boosting it, but it made this high-pitched whine in the very beginning, and I'd rather not keep that. :) You'll hear what I mean in the beta.
5. Title screen. No offense Chrono, I love your segment and the intro, but the title screen was really bothering me for some reason. I think it was because there were specific characters on it... why that is, I really don't know. I made up an alternative, so please let me know which one you guys prefer, or if you have any suggestions to make either better - I know mine's missing something, I just can't figure out what!

Getting the beta, and I love your logo kiarrens! Maybe another female character in the shot?

The timing sees fine on my segment. I just hope the visual quality is far better in the final. Also, my segemant seemed to play back a tad jerkey at moments, but that could just be me. XD

Yes, the quality will be better. I'm still messing with the compression, this was just to check the sync.

Chrono,

I found some issues w/ the intro that you may want to fix:


1. The audio edit at about 0:42-0:43. The beat jumps and it <i>hurts</i>.

Issues with the text:
2. The names on the bottom are NOT TITLE SAFE. They're not even action-safe, for that matter.

3. The names on the bottom aren't even aligned correctly - some are farther off the bottom than others.

4. I dunno about the yellow text.

5. 'dokool', not 'DOKool' plzkthx


6. The audio just drops at the title, you should keep it going and fade it out with the screen


I dunno how I feel about your title screen compared to kiarrens' but the intro song is nice. I'd like to see some more variety among the characters (i.e. not so many from the same shows) and maybe if you could match up the characters to the actual anime the editors used that'd make a whole lot more sense...

If kiarrens is willing to wait, I have no problem making adjustments. ^_^'

NP Chrono. Maybe you could fix Kira's character while you're in there? :)
I'm still waiting on Top-star's segment so waiting is no big deal.

Yep. I hate to deny Kira. Yuffie must die, so it seems. ^_^
