Youtube gave up the 10min limit a while ago (or maybe after a certain account duration they turn that off). You should be fine.

As for editing....I used to run the video dept. at UW's newspaper and teach video production, but that....that was a long time ago....

Link's down

So it would seem...

"This email is an automated notification from Dropbox that your Public links have been temporarily suspended for generating excessive traffic. Your Dropbox will continue to function normally with the exception of Public links."

The problem with YouTube is they have a 10 minute max length, so I'd have to edit into 3 segments, and honestly it's just not that exciting :)
Someone needs to edit that shit into 30 seconds with some dramatic music and upload it to youtube.

I'm thinking picasa will take a video link. I'll figure it out tomorrow.

[OldDrunkenSailor]

Throw it onto the youtubes. They have bandwidth.

You don't have your own FTP setup?

Psh, and you call yourself a software engineer?

I'm a software engineer who's smart enough to know when he doesn't have to dink around and pay for shit he can get for free in 5 seconds :)

I didn't advertise the Go-Pro because
A) it was experimental, I didn't know how it would do at night
B) I didn't want y'all doing anything too stupid directly infront of my car :shock: The day you guys figure out I brought my GoPro is the day I point that shit backwards.

I downsized the video from 1080p to 720p, but it still weighs in at 1.1gb, so it's unlikely that many of you can stream it. Use whatever method you like to download the file to disk and play it from there.

zero editing done, so have fun looking at my phone that I was using to try and find the record button.

Cheers,

Send me the video, I want to see it.

So I pulled the video to my computer. It's 2.4gb in size :(
I was just going to put it in my DropBox and link you guys, but now I'm thinking I'll need to convert it down to 720p at least before it'll fit on any cloud storage I currently have. I'll try and get to it this weekend some time.

It was a fun meet, and I had a good time cruising to and from. Thanks everyone!

So, the Go-Pro video for the drive down with the north crew turned out far better than expected. We didn't do anything all that interesting, but it's still sort of cool for a couple seconds to see a couple E30's cruising down I-5 with the the Seattle skyscrapers and overpasses flying by.

I have little desire to edit it into something interesting though (don't have the time/patience for it mostly). If any of you guys want to take a shot at it let me know and I'll shoot the HD vid your way. The file isn't small, as it covers 22 minutes of driving in 1080p :)

I also caught what I assumed was a semi getting a little frisky with whichever White E30 this is, causing him to do a little swerve. Or maybe he just sneezed? Not sure :)


Lastly, upon leaving, I'm sorry to whoever I cut off on that on ramp. I didn't know the lane was ending and was just following the left hand side of the crowd. Not that I'll never cut you off, just that if I do cut you off, I'd like to do it intentionally :)

And I think that picture was Silvertip.

Pretty sure it was me. The semi couldn't stay in its lane, for a moment got me scared :/

[AustinK425]

Wtf there was a go pro? This meet was stupid fun...

[spiDmang]

Tyler, post that video mang!!

[bkslaughterhouse]

That was a good meet, I'll see you guys next week in my e36 and I'll bring my canon, I can take individual/group photos. Also I'll do free photoshoots on any of your e30s too if anyone's interested, preferably daytime for proper lighting.

Glad everybody made it out! It was fun despite the cramped table and not being in the dining room

[Earendil]

That is the PERFECT lighting to make my car look good! :up:
