Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

maybe another topic for a podcast, game magazines?
Definitely a good topic. I could offer some pensioner-grade knowledge of Commodore Format, Zzap 64!, Commodore Power, Commodore Force, CU Amiga, Super Play and so on.
Adultappleflavouredbeveragemale could go back a good bit further and talk about his time doing work experience for William Caxton in 1476.
Separated at birth?

I can do this week as backup for when Atavan realizes that he cant use the car and cry's off even though he could get a 15 Bus all the way from Dundrum to Coolock

Well the last one we recorded was a street fighter podcast with Doom who does a lot of video recording for the street fighter scene in Ireland and he was very interested in doing some video stuff. We'll see what we can do and if he is still up for it.

The problem is capturing the footage requires equipment I don't have. I can capture from composite but I long since threw away the composite cables on my consoles. It's really difficult to find capture hardware for RGB and upwards. Also it takes a lot of space, something I don't have on my hard drive. Also there's movie editing which I've no experience of. I think our only chance really is getting Doom to help out on a few once offs. I could try recording small ones on emulators and trying it out.

For the sake of a podcast video, just use emulation in conjunction with save states etc. Most of the emu's have recording functions & nobody here is gonna say anything because of the use of emulation
Yes, nobody has to spend hours doing gameplay with capture devices. You'd only be showing how a game looks or how it plays so some longplays (with a "thanks to longplay" message or something) would be fine and then maybe some captured play on an emulator if you wanted to highlight a certain level or some other quirk in a game.
It doesn't have to be hard or complicated at all. Perhaps use an older podcast and do a bit of video for it to see how it might work? I'd help out putting the video together once I know what you want to appear at on-screen at a particular time during playback.
I think a bit of video will also increase the viewers dramatically if its up on itunes like the normal podcast. A retro podcast, with video! I'd download it 0 -

I'll see about emulation, it's just that a lot of games we talk about aren't emulatable.The Last Bandit wrote: »Don't know if podcast video are that popular ? I consume a good deal of retro podcasts a work while driving etc purely because they are audio only.
The podcasts ye guys do, is there an rss feed for them or manually download the mp3's ?
Not sure about rss feed but the podcasts are all downloadable as MP3's

Only seeing this now.
I'm more than willing to help out and do some recording, to be honest I do it so much it's no real effort. I'm not great with editing, generally I just edit live on the fly with xsplit.
Ironically, composite is the one I can't do (I have a composite to component upscaler which I've never tested so I might...), I have equipment to record via svideo, VGA, component and HDMI. I also have all the equipment to add live commentary to them all. I know this isn't perfect for retro stuff but I am sure I could sort out something for the older formats.
The same program, Xsplit, is also a low cost way of recording gameplay on a computer, too.
To be honest I would probably keep the two parts seperate, have an audio only bit and them a complementary vodcast.
Here's a sample of the kind of stuff we do regularly with fighting games: Dont watch it all (unless you enjoy it) but notice the cam switching and stuff at 7:50. All easy to do on the fly.
I've also gotten better cams since then 0 -
