New Retropie Splash Video - Amiga heavy!
-
@GeekOB Thanks very much :) The source is 720 - I've never had any luck getting my Pi to playback 1080 files for some reason. Plus it was tricky finding all the games I wanted to include at sufficient res to make it larger.
I know what you mean about the length. It did start out shorter but didn't work as well - just felt like there weren't enough previews. Plus I kept thinking of more games I wanted to include! I might try and do a chopped down version at some point though, as I appreciate it's a bit lengthy :)
-
@ReadyPlayaWon Thank you! I used Premiere Pro (trial). Not used it before so thought I'd try and teach myself by making this :)
-
Regardless @mpnuttall, I'd love to have this on my Pi4 if you can make it ~45 secs. There are some tools out there that can upscale video using AI functionality. Maybe I can help with this, write me at g33kob@gmail.com if you're interested.
Again, good work!! -
@GeekOB How about 50 seconds?!
I'll drop you an email re: upscaling it to 1080 too. Is there a repository for splash vids on here btw? Very happy to share this more widely if anyone would like to use it.
Cheers, Mark

Try https://github.com/HerbFargus/retropie-splashscreens-extra.

Look great @mpnuttall!!
Can you share this one? -
@mitu Thanks, but I can't post there I don't think - says I require push access (whatever that is!).
-
@GeekOB Sure...once I work out how to 😆
-
@mpnuttall While you find a permanent location, any google drive, dropbox or other cloud sharing will do. Right @mitu ?
-
@mpnuttall If you don't have a Github account or haven't used it, then simply put it somewhere where it can be downloaded - as @GeekOB suggested.
-
@mitu Thanks - I do have a GitHub account but haven't used the site other than to download themes, so guess I haven't earned sufficient permissions to upload stuff.
@GeekOB Here you go:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AD9vTFfR4xD7rcjCbKagRJEcU1PIuBze/view?usp=drivesdkIf you are able to upscale it as you suggested and repost/relink it here (and add it to the GitHub repository if you have the necessary permissions - though I need a name for it!) then that'd be great.
Cheers

I never have earned anything there as far as I know, but I was able to create a repository anyway. Did you follow the official instructions?
https://docs.github.com/en/github/getting-started-with-github/create-a-repo
A Github repo would have many advantages like easy synchronisation with a local copy by you or your downloaders.
-
@Clyde I was trying to add it to this repository as @mitu suggested, rather than create a new one:
https://github.com/HerbFargus/retropie-splashscreens-extra
Thanks

@mpnuttall To add something to another's repo in Github you have to make a fork of the original repo, make your changes or additions to your fork, and then create a pull request to the original repo like this one from Tangela.
-
@Clyde Way too complicated for me sorry! 😂
-
@mpnuttall We grow along with our tasks. 😉
-
@Clyde Worked out how to create a fork...but max file size is 25mb! Vid is 65mb.
-
@mpnuttall Sorry, I don't have any experience with such large files on Github. But Git Large File Storage (git-lfs) could be what you need:
