I'm so glad you got these. I almost bought them to set aside and encode "someday" when I had the setup, but that could have taken years.

Im having issues with the 4th one. It seems Google Video Uploader hates me, and kills the connection after a few seconds of uploading and starts over.

Looks like Ill have to split this one in half, and then theres one more. I'll have them up by tomorrow.

I bought them hoping there was something Resident Evil on them, but unfortunately thats not the case. I figured I'd share them since they aren't of use to me Smile

Which reminds me, Carn told me you had some videos you needed processed? Im up for it if you still need help.

I don't think this is off topic, but can I post other promo videos on youtube? I thought you can only upload your own stuff that you created. Otherwise I have a Squaresoft tape I can upload.

You can post damn near anything you want on youtube. Just about the only people that complain of copyright violation are mpaa/riaa member copyright holders; there are tons and tons of public service announcements, smaller clips from tv shows, etc on you tube.

Throw it on up there!

If I can figure out how to use the video capture I think I will throw it up. Should I put watermark of "LostLevels.Org" on the video? I think it would be kewl to advertise the site.
