I've just resent it. Did you receive it?

Yes, thank you.

There will almost always be corrections during the review phase - that's why I always do these reviews. Smile

Though I did NOT want to hear about further glitches. Evil or Very Mad I am tired of how the project file keeps attempting to self-destruct. And Adobe doesn't release fixes for their broken software, yet keeps pushing out new versions. I'll have to peek at the English copy and determine if I'm going to bother fixing the glitch now or worry about it later.

Well, you don't have to do it for me. It's not that bad. If it costs too much time, I'd say leave it. That time could better be spent on the next episodes.

Same problem as the last glitch. Magically, a portion of video mysteriously vanished, leaving a blank gap between two segments. This has been happening around places I've tried to fix jagged movement.

I'll fix it in the episodes I haven't already rendered out (Dutch, Italian, French) and go back and fix German and English later.

Ep6 has been the worst at doing this. Ep7 is "behaving". I think the problem is Premiere is choking on the size Ep6... which is really sad because in my opinion, a professional (and expensive) video editing program shouldn't be choking on any project less than 2 hours in length. Sad

The FRAPS codec is probably not without some blame, as I've seen out of memory errors from it while working on Ep 6, but I'm particularly vexed at Premiere's "An unknown error occurred" dialogues when they occur.

I'm so sorry for those problems and your suffering, Marten, and
you're absolutely right about what you're saying in case of "such"
a program... Confused

That is a wise decision, Marten Razz

And again and again, the video is so great... even if
I've seen this so often by now, read all those text lines
over and over again, word by word, letter by letter,
it's still exciting... Very Happy

Bulletin for immediate release to international forums!

-------------------

Learn more of the Great Zero and Phil Henderson
Prologue Documentary 6


Four years ago, the atmosphere of the Cavern was quite different. The Bahro were not yet free, though Yeesha had implored explorers to take her Journey and support the Least. Sentiment about this task varied from explorer to explorer.

Ex-Restoration Engineer Phil Henderson travelled from Neighborhood to Neighborhood encouraging explorers to embrace Yeesha's Journey. Standing along side of him, Douglas Sharper attempted to capitalize on pro-Yeesha and anti-DRC feelings among the Gathered.

Victor Laxman, the DRC's lead engineer, stepped into this environment to stir up a little more support for the DRC by proposing a project that would give the explorers something to do: Calibration of the Great Zero.

Today, the Great Zero spins gracefully, humming along as its blue beam glides over the city... the explorers helped to power it up in June, 2007. But the DRC never really explained much about it; new explorers wondered about all of the fuss.

Learn more about Victor's enthusiasm for the Great Zero, and witness the growing followers of Yeesha that helped to free the Bahro, in the Great Tree's newest Prologue Documentary: Conversations with Victor Laxman.

Available in high quality Windows and Macintosh formats, in five languages: Dutch, English, French, German, and Italian. http://www.thegreattree.com/media/

Coming Soon: Documentary 7: Kidnapped!

------------------

The English forums will also include the following snippet, but I'm waiting on CCN to get the CavernCast up.

Also available in a half-sized streaming format (English-only) from Cavern Communication Network's CavernCast: http://caverncast.libsyn.com/

Posted. Smile

By the way, wouldn't it be wonderful if there was a link to the documenary page on the MOUL homepage? Links to Youtube are possible, so why not a link to the media page? Perhaps in the future... Smile

Looks really good, Marten! Very nice video quality and lighting in this one. The part where Laxman comes in and Sharper and Phil slip out turned out pretty funny. Seeing you use more "emotes" is great, it really breaks up the monotony of conversation and the talk gestures. You could even have people very occasionally let go of Tab early, before they begin to lean. Sometimes people talk with little, halfhearted gestures like it makes when you keep pressing Tab for only a brief moment. Things like that mix it up and make long conversations visually interesting (you already know this.. I'm just trying to add to your bag of tricks).
