Xtendamix sounds awesome, however, I reside in Texas...

I am from Texas ;-)

Try Vjstreet.com. Great website for oldies.

We need some more Geto Boyz.... All you can get, whatever you can get

Opps.. wrong thread

Anyone happens to know an european video pool with some old euro dance videos 90's perhaps 80's . Sadly all the video pools i'm finding are US oriented meaning that the videos are mostly from american artist and the european scene is pretty much neglected. Thanx in advance .

again xtendamix has some 90's euro dance...

Gotta throw Promo Only's Classic series out there.
promoonly.co.uk

i don't know if i'm wrong but for xtendamix you must be from Canada or US to register??? I'm from Europe.

Xtendamix is Canada only.

This pool looks promising. What format are the files in? Can't find any info on their website.

I've use them before but it's been a while. They format in 720 X 480 from what I got from them... No bad audio... I think it's 320, Maybe they changes since the changed names of the sight it was my12inchvideo before

@benictrs try MixMash.com shoot them a email and tell them Res-Q from Paris sent you, they will give you samples to try out, they got europe covered, french, german, uk, spanish vids and more....

If you like cut up Promo Only videos then yeah sure....but why not just get them directly?

has anyone tried the P.O.O.L service yet?

taking it back to 09. haha

Yeah I've switched over to it from physical releases. The only thing that sometimes annoys me is the AIR client they use will get stuck and you have to pause, then restart the download to kick it back in.

Just called promo only, and they want $1400+ for their entire 80s and 90s music video collections. Wow! Is it worth it???

is it on dvd or mp4?
and how many tracks?

Not if they have those ugly ass watermarks that pop up and the fact that you'll have to IVTC or deinterlace every video and put them in the proper resolution. All WS vids (not many from the 80s) will be letterboxed 4:3
I'd spend about $300 on those dvds

check ebay.

yea, if you have to rip them from dvd, even if you don't do it proper, it's hardly worth it.
i have just about every best of po dvd and i wouldn't spend even $300 on them.
i don't even know why i keep them, such a pain in the ass.

it's not likely you will play even half of the tracks anyway.

LOL, check ioffer

Promo Only

They come on data discs in mp4 format, 320 audio. There are 35 total discs for the 80s and 90s with an average of around 45 tracks per disc.

They have an entire track listing on their website. It does look impressive.

i would rather get the dvd's and rip them and ivtc them myself.

It would be cheaper, require less time and you would get better quality videos by joining xtendamix. They are also very open to requests and have access to some really hard to find stuff.

I also think the PO mp4's are the same 29.9fps letterboxed vobs taken down to mp4. I highly doubt they'll put in the work to bring them back to original frame rate and proper resolutions.
You'll probably end up with tons of 720x480 29.9fps mp4's which look horrible on screen and reminds me of 3 years ago.
Any dj who cares about video doesn't play out with stuff like that.

The PO mp4s look decent. I haven't had any IVTC issues with them from the POOL they have now. I will say the letterboxing/aspect issues they sometimes have aren't a problem with most fullscreen 80's videos.

Yeah any full screen videos are fine, which most 80s and 90s vids were probably shot in 4:3

I haven't seen one po mp4s personally so all my comments above are assumptions.

So you're saying the videos are (sometimes) IVTC'ed to 23.976fps?

Not just all simply deinterlaced and at 29.97?

^I doubt it

post a sample. Just a 20 second clip from a video.

I'll try to get back on the horse tonight and check/chop something for you guys then dropbox it.

That'd be very useful...

Though just dropping a lot of the PO MP4 files into Movie Batch Info and copy/pasting the results into a forum post would also be real helpful.

Xtendamix has a great selection. Must be nice for the Canadians.

it is eh.

spell it the american way heh
