Excuse me if I appear retarded, but what message are you talking about? Is it supposed to be some sort of general advertising video without a use of an AMD logo, or do we have to make 3 letters "AMD" built out of various stuff pop out of nowhere?

[Raiden]

Is this international or only to Usa members????

Only 30 seconds and 720p are acepted? bah

been on the road today with Fugger, we are still finalizing a few details on the video streaming end, making sure that everything will be running and streaming smoothly everywhere on the launch on the 30th. ( and not just in the US, or Europe...)

Bare with us a sec longer, until... Simon say's...can't wait for some of the entries!

So, if I understand you correctly we can start the uploads tomorrow.

[Charles Wirth]

Video uploads can start now.

You will not be able to view them until tomorrow.

Get your entries now and respond in this thread once it is done, you will not be able to link the video yet.

Should I get a message after a successful upload? Because I didn't get anything.

I was a bit curious, 720p, that is basicly 1280x720 resolution right?

Would a 30 second 'gif' image be considered as a movie? or will it actually have to be a picture (multiple pictures/frames) of some kind?

Oh yea, I can join in too right? lol

Nope..
Section 12, Line 12 of the rules states:
"All Male staff members of Xs between the ages of 35-50 are not allowed entry"
Sorry pal...

Good thing I'm only 28 then right?! ^_^

[Oliverda]

I've tried to upload my video again but after a while I always get a "The connection was reset" error message in Firefox.

The situation is even worse in IE 8.

Webpage error details

Message: 'J.parentNode' is null or not an object
Line: 5
Char: 1913
Code: 0
URI: http://xtremesystems.tv/wp-includes/...ect.js?ver=2.1

I'm not a web programmer so I don't know what does it mean.

After I started the upload in IE it says that "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage".



My file is in MPEG2 format. (1280x720 29.97fps 15000Kbps)
Size: 58,1 MB

Thats discrimination....

[Oliverda]

Finally I was able to upload my video.

I hope that I don't violate any rules with it. If I do please tell me asap. Thanks.

Btw it is an MPEG2 file and not FLV.

[zanzabar]
