zfleeman posted:Not sure I follow. I stream to YouTube. They have a clip editor? I tried to use it last year. It was horrible, even if you did a precise selection, it would round it to some arbitrary amount 5 seconds away, either cutting off just enough of what you want to say so it gets annoying, or leaving in just enough unrelated sound/video that it was annoying either. I don't quite remember which tool I ended up using but basically everything is better than that youtube editor. So, if it's gone, good riddance.

Oublietteer posted:When I try to use Rightload and the LPix plugin, I get an error: If the ShareX advice the previous poster gave doesn't work for some reason - what you can do is go to a DLL download site, search for that missing DLL, download it and dump it into the Rightload folder. That trick usually solves any DLL issue. However, this is fully on your own risk. It's easy to inject viruses into DLLs and downloading files that can contain viruses from a random website might not be the best idea.

The best fix is to post more comments so there are less updates on a page.

I don't know, but if you did something with one of the apps you're better off asking questions in the appropriate app thread. Here's the android app thread https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3571717 , there's one for the iPhone app too but I don't have a link.

Peanut Butler posted:I got a decade old laptop with no GPU, 3GB RAM, Celeron 900 @ 2.2 GHz, lil 300GB HDD- I want to record some gameplay for a video, obvi not in 1080 lol, but prolly more like 800x600- When I did my Submachine SSLP I first recorded it as raw video footage using OBS at mostly default settings. I think the only time I directly uploaded video instead of screenshots was for the credits sequence: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJc9m-xg5No This was done on an old and slow laptop without a GPU. This all worked out because Submachine are tiny little games that don't require much resources to run so OBS could take all it needed. And also because I wasn't playing the HD versions but the original 400x514px flash versions, combined with the graphical style of those games, meant low resolution was barely noticable in the end result. I wasn't able to record any high-quality full screen games using that setup.

ChaosArgate posted:I’d like to make a feature request to have all those image URLs dumped to a text file on completion, I think that could be very useful for people getting the image links into their updates. Hell, with that it would be a single line of code extra to already put [img] tags around them in the text file.

It should work for vods, clips, and channels! Just surround a twitch link with video tags.

Touchfuzzy posted:Would it behoove us to have a Discord for this stuff? (Unless there's already something similar.) Real-time help for those that need it would be nice, having to redo the OP is a pain, and half the time, we have to ask if they have a Discord just to see their problem in the first place if they can't post it elsewhere. Not sure if you're talking about LP in general, or more specific streaming stuff, but for the former, there's a tech support channel in the Let's Play Discord linked from the Sandcastle.. Feel free to join. Just note that the Discord is nowadays not just the Discord for this let's play forum but also for the LPBeach spinoff which was made when we got rather uncomfortable about the administration of SA a while ago. Doesn't matter which of the forums you use though, we're a friendly bunch either way. There's also some people there who stream regularly so they might be able to help out with streaming questions too, it's just not the main thing.

Putty posted:Anyone got some magic tricks to uploading footage to Youtube that gets blocked normally? I don't care about monetization but some stuff just gets blocked from viewing in all countries and some effects editing to the video doesn't work usually. Upload to Pornhub instead. They allow non-adult oriented videos.

Blueberry Pancakes posted:Oh, thanks. That helps a lot! I don't think so. Closest you can get is put the image in a [pre] block and put a bunch of spaces or whatever in front, but then whether it's in the middle or on the next line depends on the width of the screen of the reader. (And people do read SA from mobile)

Uganda Loves Me posted:I'd like to do a Let's Play of a game with pictures of a physical journal. I want to be able to easily dump images in a file in sequence, with text in between. I'd like to keep the pictures as high-res as possible until I want to share it. Should I just use a Word doc? Is there an easy way to turn such a thing into a post? I see RightLoad for uploading the images, but is there a way to keep track of the text I wrote in-between the pictures without putting everything back together by hand? I know there's a script floating around some LPers use where you put placeholders in a text file and then when you're done you can run the script once and it will replace the placeholders with the actual image links. Maybe that helps you? You never want to use Word though, always a basic text document (or the SSLP test poster) with forums BBCode because changing Word formatting into BBCode is horrible.

Falconier111 posted:I just finished a ~17,000 word guide on screenshot LPs that I've been working on for... God, for years now. It covers thread management, burnout prevention, OP construction, image creation and hosting, update structuring and editing, pratical BBCode, three different ways to go from blank word doc to posted update in increasing levels of complexity complete with copypastable VBA scripts, and a bunch of other poo poo I've forgotten about. I threw up a draft on the test poster for lack of other places to put it, since it uses SA BBCode (it evolved out of an addendum to one of my LPs) and there's no way in hell I could post it here without drowning out the thread. Are there steps I should be taking to get eyes on it and/or get it considered for inclusion in the OP? drat, that's an impressive amount of work, well done. I just scrolled through it and noticed two points of feedback: - First, in my letsplays, I try to base the length of an update on what a logical "chapter" section is. If that's too long or too short, I tend to base it around the number of images that feels good for the game I'm LP'ing (depends on the amount of content per image). I've never based it on number of words. So, that's another way to decide this. - Secondly, I was incredibly confused about your choice of MS Word. I would never recommend MS Word to a newbie because, if they start using fonts and bold/italic, well, that's basically impossible to turn that into bbCode. So why use MS Word over a basic text editor? On top of that, not everyone has access to MS Word. Not even MS Windows is as commonplace as it once was (which means many people won't be able to use your Paint 3D guide either). I was wondering about your MS Word choice until I saw your section about find-and-replace macros. That explains your choice. Now, this can also be done by more advanced text editors, or even with command line / python scripts, I'm sure some people here use those, but of course the syntax would be different. You can also decide to forgo those macros and do this kind of stuff with a manual search+replace all, or even write the bbcode directly (I tend to use the test poster as my main editor, so I can see immediately what the result looks like). I would say, unless you can add search + replace guides for different editors (maybe provided by different people), make very clear at the start that people CANNOT use MS Word for the font stuff, and you only suggest it for macros. That you keep everything in MS Word as plain text.

Make sure to check the BBcode help on the edit post page, it also has other stuff like bold, italic and quote blocks. To get the layout the way you want just mess around with BBcode until it works. Use the SA preview feature or the test poster to check your result without posting it right away. The test poster is almost entirely compatible with SA BBcode.
