At last data moshing on windows...

Yes, data moshing works in Windows XP using avidemux... wow. It wasn't that hard really... After watching the 3 part tutorial on youtube :) I felt like a fucking moron a few months ago trying to get the effect to work. For a little while there I thought about buying a mac just to use ffxmpeg of whatever its called. For those who say its dated, YES YES yes! But its looks so cool :) The key was in the keyframes section of avidemux.. 1. re-encode the source video as xvid Instead of COPY > choose > mpeg 4 Xvid choose configure > frames tab > iframe interval to really high. note you can delete the audio since it's not going to really work... 2. append the re-encoded clips and delete the first iframe where the clips join. Note: The above assumes you've seen that 3 part data moshing tutorial on youtube :) that's all i can remember. writing this down so I don't forget next time I revisit the idea. I would post an example but it's to...

It is so. It cannot be otherwise...

I often think of an inscription on the ruins of a fifteenth-century cathedral in Amsterdam, Holland. This inscription says in Flemish: "It is so. It cannot be otherwise."

Time to crack that wonderful book open again and brainwash my self some more...    UPDATE!UPDATE!UPDATE! 05/21/2022   So I guess I was resisting change in 2010 which was causing my suffering? So here is the answer thanks to Dick Sutphen...   “It is your resistance to 'what is' that causes your suffering.”   Buddha.

Lettuce render... The Gakuyen kayphew HYPER 3D (STEREOSCOPIC) FX So we discovered the "Hyper 3D" effect thanks to endless 3D searches on youtube...  YT just started suggesting things to me in bed and this caught my attention! Wasn't able to go to sleep that night was too excited to render was able to go to sleep took one magnesium and one benadryl, woke up early and rendered to satisfaction Tutorial HYPER 3D (STEREOSCOPIC) Remake DETAIL & ENGLISH VERSION https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMBXk4OFW3662yG2u5UpmSA/videos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYfV0PgJwn0 I guess he was saying that he was discovered/inspired this from: https://www.youtube.com/c/GakuLange/videos  I was puzzled why the GIF format was used in a majority of the videos I watched? 1. GIF is an antiquated format that I love to this day. The downside to using the GIF rather than the MP4 would be a loss of quality and limited color depth (256 colors off the top of my head)  lets do some dial up!...
