gatz posted:Slow them down and change the pitch. Some old dos games have this weird thing where the audio files are sped up by 50%, but played back normally while in-game. Right... have you tried treating them as 22050hz raw files intead of 44100hz? Because that should probably do exactly that for you.

Just tried it, did exactly as you said. Are they actually 44100hz as audacity detects, or are they 22050hz? It might depend on the game, but I'm not sure.

Well they're raw, which means they don't have any metadata associated with them, and it's completely up to the playing program to interpret them.

They're (almost definitely) 22050Hz - with raw PCM audio, this would've cut your file sizes in half from 44.1KHz, so you were basically correct there. Audacity was probably just guessing, it got pretty close if it guessed everything else right. Then again, sample rate is probably much harder to guess, though.

Hey, I'm trying to use Shadowplay to record and it works fine with Unreal and Source engine games, and some obscure stuff like Gorky 17 (Odium in the U.S.). I was wondering if anyone knew what is required for ShadowPlay to be compatible with a particular game/engine? Specifically I'd like to know if I could create (or modify) some kind of Aero overlay or other utility that simulates a screen output that ShadowPlay recognizes as a 'compatible game' and would record the video output as such. I'm planning on switching to OBS and/or Fraps for anything that's not compatible, but I really like the way Shadowplay works and the quality I get from it--with virtually no performance hits--has got me enraptured in the prospect of expanding its usability to simply recording my entire screen instead of a handful of game outputs.

Shadowplay requires Directx games running in fullscreen mode. At that point its kind of a crapshoot if the game isn't officially supported.

I don't think Audacity does any analysis on the audio file, it just has a set of defaults that are pretty standard (linear PCM, 8-bit, 44.1KhZ).

I figured, but I know people have come up with DirectX... emulation utilities? I dunno. I couldn't find anything in my searches for ShadowPlay stuff, I was hoping someone might know a thing or two about DirectX.

I'm not really sure what you'd expect a DirectX emulation tool to do. If the app uses another system like OpenGL or GDI, you can't really emulate DirectX. Well, you theoretically could have an OpenGL-to-DirectX translator for apps that are written using OpenGL, like Wine but backwards, but really there's no good reason to do that. Traditionally, GPU drivers have had stronger DirectX support than OpenGL support, so you would encounter tons of performance and compatibility issues. It would be a monumental effort and nobody really would ever buy such a tool. Basically, find another recording tool is your best option.

Personally, if you are going to go for paid software, I'd avoid FRAPS. It is very feature-light and the codec isn't even lossless... just really large. I've had lossless codecs give similar sizes or smaller than FRAPS. In terms of general compatibility and features, you might to try out Bandicam. They have a trial on their site. Does DirectX/OpenGL window capture as well as screen area capture while works on games like Binding of Isaac. Supports the use of installed codecs like UT or Lagarith and supports separate mic stream recording.

Shadowplay also requires a specific fullscreen mode that excludes most emulators, which pretty much ruined the whole reason I bought a card that supported it.

Artix posted:So I have a 40 minute video that I decided to break up into two parts. I set up all my edits in AviSynth, tell it to only render the first few parts of it, feed it into MeGUI, and I get a nice, crisp 20 minute video. Great, exactly what I wanted. Now I go I to render the other half, so I comment out the line that had the stuff for the part 1 video and add in a line with the stuff for part 2. I have not changed anything else about the script aside from adding this line. Now, VirtualDub crashes every time I try to load the script. If I go back and try to load the entire video from the beginning it's perfectly fine, including the part of the video that I want in the second half. It just absolutely refuses to load anything that doesn't start from the beginning. The script in question: You left out the part of the script that defined vid, but I can't imagine that matters. If you can create a video that contains everything you want for your second part, why can't you just do that, then Trim and Fade that?

Only because AviSource() told you that it's RGB32 doesn't mean that it actually is -- again, this is a codec decoding issue. Try the version on the site for YV12.

It looks like I can sidestep the audio issue, by adding in the audio track at the MeGui stage, however due to file sizes it seems that VirtualDub shits itself when trying to color adjsut an 85.6Gb file for the preview  So Just take a shorter clip, test the script on that and then take a Hail Mary on rendering the big file? Or should I be pre-processing that big file down into something more manageable?

So I just got the Elgado capture device but it's not working on my monitor. It tells me to link to the PS3 using the A/V in cable which probably doesn't make sense, since my monitor isn't a TV per se... but I do it anyway, AV/In cable to A/V Multi Out on the back of the PS3 like it says. Then I use the HDMI cable out to go to my monitor's HDMI port and nothing is showing up, even when I tell the PS3 to do Component/D-Terminal like Elgado's instructions say. I tried HDMI mode too and nothing. I tried just the HDMI in from Elgado to PS3 and HDMI out to monitor and nothing either. Also tried switching to 720p, At this point I don't know what else to do.

Are you running Game Capture HD at the same time? One thing I always have to remind myself is to have the usb cable plugged in and set Game Capture HD to PS3 mode so it's not looking for HDMI input.

The problem though, is that the PS3 can't output HDMI to a capture device because it has HDCP protection so you need to have it outputting component. Also it's Elgato, not Elgado. It's right there on the capture device.

http://www.twitch.tv/nexttime000/b/509925177 I was using VAC for the first time to stream dark souls, and the entire time it did this weird poo poo that caused my pitch go up and down randomly. I don't know if it was my VAC settings or the lovely Hauppauge capture software that I am forced to use. Granted in-game audio was fine, just the "line 2" I was using did this; as evident when someone joined me in the mumble server for like a minute. I used the settings in the VAC tutorial in the OP, but I think I am missing something somewhere. other people in Mumble hear me fine, and I hear them fine, so it has to be something happening when I repeat the audio into line 2 or when the capture software picks it up. also I noticed that even with all of these audio repeaters going off my mic audio on the stream was still a second or two ahead of the video

You have to go into the properties of your Elgato's source in OBS by right clicking on it and adjust it from there. Something to do with outputting the audio However, last time I tried broadcasting with OBS with the Elgato, the commentary audio was out of sync. You may be better off just using the program that comes with it since I saw others experience this issue when using OBS. These were the settings I used, god willing they didn't reset when OBS updated since...

Failure to understand the last variable. What you're doing at the moment is: last = AudioDub(v, a) # places full video into last variable last = Dissolve(last.Trim(3374,8558), last.Trim(9328,10642), last.Trim(11926,16118), 60) # replace contents of the last variable with three clips, dissolved into each other last = last.Trim(17815,31205) # remove the first 17k frames of the remaining video after the dissolve Fix is either: AudioDub(v, a) Dissolve(Trim(3374,8558), Trim(9328,10642), Trim(11926,16118), 60) ++ Trim(17815,31205) or: video = AudioDub(v, a) a = Dissolve(video.Trim(3374,8558), video.Trim(9328,10642), video.Trim(11926,16118), 60) b = video.Trim(17815,31205) final = a ++ b return final
