     Youtube keeps degrading the quality of the upload and ends up making this video not represent the quality I desire and what I have purchased this machine for. However I’m very pleased with the current results. After some complications in my set up due the the type of television I have, I was able to make a smooth transition into recording and time management. This machine operates very smoothly and is flexible enough to make each recording specifically fitted to the quality levels that I request. I am really surprised at how small the file sizes have been for each recording and feel that it more than suits my purpose for everything I need.

     Many people online suggested other models from other companies like the famous Happauge PVRs but as I stated before, there were reasons for me getting this one specifically. It more than fits my needs for anything I desire to record and will keep me going for years to come. Needless to say this didn’t require much editing or modification other than making an MP4 file for playing online. I don’t plan to record everything I do but in general this opens the gates for me to explore more than what I have been able to do in the past. I find the simplicity for recording to be one of the greatest aspects of this machine and that gives me more room for experimentation and exploration for any future projects I may engage in.

We continue our journey….

Status update -Youtube Channel-

Hey everyone, I have been trying to find a way to make this through a video but it’s kind of short and a little bit scattered to get out all the information, so I have just decided to post it here. Well that and what do I pay to keep this site up and running for right? So here we go I guess, it’s been a while since I last uploaded any video to my channel and I’m sure some of you have been wondering what’s going on here. Well if I can be candid with you here for a moment, the main point of my channel is just for something fun to do when I have the time to do so.

I have no real goal or plans for the content or the way my channel operates, I record videos when I’m in the mood and most of the time when it’s something that I want to record. However more recently I have been thinking of being a bit more collected in what I’m doing because just random videos can get a little boring to do when you have no set goal in general. So I have decided to stick to creating a few series and periodically recording and updating them as time rolls on.

As many of you might also know, the two series I started were for Minecraft and Hatsune Miku Project Diva 2nd. Here is the story on what’s going on with them:

 

Hatsune Miku Project Diva 2nd

- I lost the save file while experimenting with different methods of recording, I was trying some things to bring out better quality but failed each time and ultimately broke the save file. I do realize that I could fix the file but at this point I think it would just be better to restart the game entirely.

- I have come up with a new way of doing the videos, instead of just recording and uploading each stage separately, I’m going to do a bulk recording of each mode and then upload chunk videos of several stages.

- Just to be clear, I am not aiming for a perfect run on any stage. I am playing this game for fun and if I manage to get a PERFECT rating, then it’s just something good that happens. For those looking for a perfect run on any stage in this game, there are plenty of videos of perfect runs on Youtube.

- After toiling around in my mind a little more, I have decided to use the default modules for each song. I am a Luka fan but to stave off confusion for viewers I think it’s an important thing to do.

 

Minecraft Hardcore Survival Mode 2.0

- Similar to PD2nd I lost the save file for this series as well. However this was by accident, it was only after I deleted it that I realized that it was the one I had for the Youtube series.

- I have restarted that series on a new map and hopefully it will go well, the main goal for this series is just to see how long I can survive before something goes horribly wrong lol.

- I would like to “try” to be more constant with the way I record this series. At least once every-other week I’ll set down to record footage.

- I still haven’t decided if I want to do 10-15 minute sessions or do what I did before and just record a bulk session, cutting each video into smaller ones. I can set up Bandicam to do segmented recordings, it’s just the time and how much I want to do it for.

Small update

Well as the title would imply, this is just a small update post. I’m in the process of editing a couple of Minecraft videos for my Hardcore Survival Mode 2.0 series that I have decided to do after so long lol. As I have mentioned before, I have no schedule for recording and just do this for fun. So if you don’t see a particular playlist updated in a while that is the reason.

#00 Steam Icon

For those that use the grid view like me on Steam I created a icon for Black Mesa Source. It's just a small altered version of the soundtrack cover art but it does the trick.

Minecraft Hardcore 2.0

Well I decided to do another Hardcore Mode play-through, and hopefully this time it will last more than just one episode……

Minecraft is a sandbox type game where you as the player must survive in a world where you can build anything with only your imagination as the limit.

BENI Covers: Additional Cover Art

Recently I obtained my copy of BENI COVERS: first press edition, the difference is that it comes with a replacement cover art insert. I'm a bit particular on symmetry and so in my mind I'd prefer this to the stock art because it's a different edition. If people want to use this to add the album via iTunes or another application your more than welcome to. Click the links below to download.

Just a little something.

Well I was up a little last night and decided to make myself a new wallpaper for my new computer, however I don’t know it’s exact pixel dimensions and therefore I just made one to fit my Macbook Black. Anywho, please enjoy it to your leisure.
