Serato Video General Discussion

Talk about Serato Video and Video-SL.

Thank You - Death Of The Ringtone

VJ Justin Allen 2:17 PM - 22 February, 2010
I have been following your progress and can certainly see the difference. Congratulations on all of your hard work in getting things changed. I have a few questions:

Do you have a way of letting the customers know when a video has been re-encoded...a checkbox or symbol...anything like that?

Also, and this is a very very small thought...Any chance of moving your text (xtendamix) under the rest of the text on the left side of the screen. It looks cluttered on the bottom of the screen with text all along the bottom.

Once again, thanks for listening and working hard to make changes. I look forward to you coming to America.

Plus, it would add 5 lines of text to each video instead of 4.

IMHO it would still look better than it being on the right......
that being said I have noticed a huge improvements since the pool first started so BIG UPS on that.......
once you get a couple more issues worked out this is gonna be the top pool out there

Chyron's will be fixed on all videos from Sony, VP, EMI, Ultra and most independents....will talk to Universal and Warner about it as well.

They will now be the standard 4 lines along the left hand side, no Xtendamix on the right as per your requests :)

Cheers



damn! where do I leave my tip? 15%?

apparently we can't play hockey, but customer service? Canada has it!

Very nice. You are starting to widen the gap between your company and many others out there.

Thank you. Is the chyron the only thing you would like to see changed?


If your reencoding older stuff, you guys are doing your job man, listening and learning and trying to improve to be a GREAT pool to be in not just another source for things I cant find somewhere better(which you still do a good job on IMHO)

We'd like to thank you for all your support and comments (good and bad) about our service. We were able to take it to Universal Music and show them these comments and convince them to get rid of the ringtone codes on the bottom of the video.

Very good news! :)

Good that you are listening to (paying) customers!

VJ Justin Allen 7:34 PM - 25 February, 2010
Mark,

What was that animated logo (x-mix words) on your recently posted Crush - Jellyhead X-Mix video. I have seen other companies do that and please tell me that you are not moving in that direction.
VJ Justin Allen 11:05 PM - 25 February, 2010
lol Figures I would see them then :)
FunkyRob 11:28 PM - 25 February, 2010

Henry GQ 9:11 AM - 26 February, 2010

FunkyRob 1:25 AM - 27 February, 2010

Redline DJ 4:07 AM - 4 March, 2010

We did it, Universal and Warner allowed us to get rid of the Chyrons too. No more videos with ringtones. We are re-encoding them 4 lines, all left justified, smaller text and no more ringtones :)


Yeah boy!!!!!
Henry GQ 8:57 AM - 4 March, 2010
werd up homie.
VJ Justin Allen 1:44 PM - 4 March, 2010
Very excited about that...now quick, change the Sugar Ray extended mix you just put up there :)
VJ Justin Allen 2:54 AM - 5 March, 2010
lol you are moving fast :)

Damn, and I have been assuming that the ones that are "new" have been the ones you have been reworking.
Henry GQ 7:38 AM - 5 March, 2010
keep it up guys, u def release more than anyone else.. even if some of it is old, helps with the collection...
VJ Justin Allen 11:25 AM - 5 March, 2010
Until he gets Scandal's Goodbye To You it's not really a complete collection.


snicker.
Henry GQ 7:17 PM - 5 March, 2010
hey dont forget about putting the bpm with the preview,artist, song, lable....
Henry GQ 9:13 PM - 7 March, 2010
hey mark
is there gonna be a section with all the videos that have been redone ?

or are u gonna throw them into new releases?
Henry GQ 5:33 AM - 8 March, 2010
dear xtendamix


i dont know what u guys do with ur videos, but every time i try and rename any of ur videos in ssl, and play the the video... it goes back to the original naming...
Henry GQ 5:33 AM - 8 March, 2010
it only happens with ur vids
DJ-Phat-AL 5:36 AM - 8 March, 2010
rename? Do you mean editing the tags in SSL?
Henry GQ 6:13 AM - 8 March, 2010
i will wait for a list..

and i guess phat-al. its the wierdest thing.. check this video out.

Watchvimeo.com

only does it to the xtendamix vids
Henry GQ 6:30 AM - 8 March, 2010
yeah it kills me. i like to have my shit listed a certain way

sometimes its good to know which album versions i have from where..
whethers its a promo only or smash or xtendamix or whatever..
Henry GQ 6:39 AM - 8 March, 2010
that is what i do... i go from pc to fat 32 external to the mac external
DJ-Phat-AL 8:13 AM - 8 March, 2010
check to see in your metadata folder on the "_ScratchLive" folder has the same file info in it. If so then delete it and re-analyize it and see if that corrects it. It could be conflicting with that info. I had to delete all my Metadata files in order to edit tags in SSL.
Henry GQ 8:14 AM - 8 March, 2010
ok...i will try. thnx
DJ DisGrace 1:56 PM - 8 March, 2010
you gotta edit the tags before adding them to SSL, using Tag&Rename or MP3Tag...

I think its a 1.9.2 bug
VJ Justin Allen 2:21 PM - 8 March, 2010
Mark,

What about adding a Date Released label to your videos. With the remastering of all of your videos the Date Added field seems to be not as much use as before.
FunkyRob 3:24 PM - 8 March, 2010
I think the re-encoded files should just be listed as new with a note about "Chyron Fix" or something.
VJ Justin Allen 3:40 PM - 8 March, 2010
FunkyRob,

This is much more than a Chyron fix. They have used new encoding techniques as well as several other upgrades to deliver a better product.
FunkyRob 3:43 PM - 8 March, 2010
I realize that, but I just think they should be listed a new so they'll be easy to find.
VJ Justin Allen 3:44 PM - 8 March, 2010
Yea, I hear you. I think that's why he is coming out with a listing that will show the newly re-encoded files that they have done.
Joshua Carl 3:59 PM - 8 March, 2010
that wouls save alot of headaches when replacing the older files!
Henry GQ 8:42 PM - 8 March, 2010
yeah... look at the BS that 8th wonder put everyone thru...
at least the put re-up on their shit.
Millz 9:21 PM - 8 March, 2010
(fixed) next to the name...keep it simple and to the point.
Henry GQ 5:07 AM - 10 March, 2010
sweet!
cant wait!
Henry GQ 10:29 PM - 11 March, 2010
hey can u guys add a latest 200... ur going to fast for me, i can only check every couple days soemtimes.. haha 200!!!
Henry GQ 8:37 AM - 12 March, 2010

fcprod1 8:36 PM - 15 March, 2010
