Re: Anyone Taking Advantage of Youtube's New 60FPS Support?

Yes but that doesn't tell you much to be honest. I could take a 15 fps video, render it in 60 fps and upload it to YT and it will run at 60 fps but still have skips and jerks. What reason would I have to do that? Can somebody look at the links posted on last page and let me know what fps shows up …

You can see the actual framerate of the video in "Stats for nerds". I always get >=30fps as I use Firefox, so I couldn't tell. Keepvid also doesn't seem to give links to 60fps videos otherwise I would've known by now.

Maybe those are dropped frames? Try this one: https://youtube.com/watch?v=8bJIJwimSbk To answer your question, I would choose the former.

I've posted some videos on VengefulChip that have animations from the games that the soundtracks originate from and I encoded them with their original framerates. Here's an example: https://youtube.com/watch?v=cezJNg4plbA, it was recorded through WinUAE, the game is PAL so it has 50fps, and I …

After trying out MidiEditor, I found out it doesn't mess any of the midi files, and works flawlessly. Another plus is that it's FOSS and multi-platform, so I no longer need to switch to Windows just to use CakeWalk 😁

Yesterday I didn't have any time to test out if I can compile DOSBox, but today I cloned the latest git source (commit 59e4764443) and now it worked. Not sure what happened last time, but I don't remember running autogen.sh, so that might be what caused it, I'm not sure though. Will you be able to …

Okay, so I've tried all three modes, coarse analogue path emulation is inbetween digital and accurate sound-wise. Also apparently it still plays/exports @ 32000Hz, and I assume that's expected. Coarse sounds a tad bit better than what I've got out of DOSBox, so I assume this is what you wanted to …

It's not subjective, it's based on comparing real hardware to emulation. I think you might have misunderstood what I said, I wasn't calling sergm's "opinion" as subjective (as I said, sergm clearly has a better idea of how the MT-32 & co. function/process signals than me), but I was calling out …

So, the worse it sounds, the better for MoM. :D That really depends on (perhaps) subjective preferences. I for one don't want my recordings to sound like they were downsampled or the MT-32 "orchestra" put towels and clothes over their rhythm sections. I won't pretend to know much about how any of …

As I mentioned in http://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?p=387863#p387863 , DOSBox patch cannot use 'accurate' emulation of analogue LPF, so it always runs the emulation @ 32kHz. Even if you set DOSBox mixer to 48kHz output rate. That explains it. LPF = Low Pass Filter? Also I'm curios now in which …

If you are to answer your original question, it is ideal to have a test against real hardware. That way it can be determined which sounds "worst". It would allow others to hear the result, too. Sure it is, but again, it's not strictly about accuracy in this case. As I said I suspect it might be …

On typical Windows, I believe dosbox+mt32emu routes through directsound, whereas the other method may rely on waveout. However, I don't see any description above on which OS is even used, or whether these tests were done on different operating systems. It's difficult to replicate an audio issue if …

Hey MoM (LOVE the name, BTW). Set it according to this: http://image.dosgamesarchive.com/screenshots/comkeen1.gif The instruments should play fine, unless you missed the program changes when recording. if that's not it, then it must be that the SysEx reset after the game was exited. For the former, …
