Hi, I've used VideoDub and have a suitable mp3 and avi file from a larger, longer file, but the avi file size is considerably large. What should I do to reduce the file size? Also, what additional software might be needed?
-_-;
OSS (One-stop-software) Video Converter is an excellent program for video compression/conversion. You'll have to google for it though, as I don't know where to get it - my brother gave it to me.

You may want to add this as an alternative to vixy:

This will probably be the noobest question on this thread but I have to ask,

*inhale* YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE??!??!?!?! :o (Oops left caps lock on ;P)

I have been going there for so long and I could actually download the videos from there?

or did i miss something in the Steps?

I have a youtube downloader that allows you to strip the song of its audio in the process of converting it out of an flv, it really is a wodnerful thing (it will also let you take just the audio, ive gotten a few songs that way C: ) it has different video types to choose from and then you choose between low, medium, optimal, and high qualities as well.

it requires a download unlike the places listed above, but for people who don't want to take those extra steps to remove the audio/compress it, or dont' have anything to do that, it really is a great thing to have. Its simple to use, too.

as a video-ripper, I always use http://www.mediaconverter.org, see for yourself

I found a VERY NICE .ogm to .avi converter, which I'm going use in a beatmap

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfile ... _id=149026

It worked perfectly for me, and I hope it will for you too. It keeps the original video quality 100% and you can chose the audio bitrate.


ALSO
as far as stripping audio from the video to reduce file size, use VirtualDub, it works great
VirtualDub comes in a archive and you don't have to install anything, just extract and run the program.

I didn't know you can offset the video by opening the .osu file
so thanks :D
Jeffro
Do what I do. Get Sony Vegas. Open the Music Video or RAW (If you doing a anime song) and then check the timing with the mp3. and rerender the video so the offset is exactly the same :) Works for me :D

Erm, help please? I have an avi file but osu doesn't seem to like it. It tells me to check my codecs... what's that?

Go down to "Videos don't play! Why?"

hey, do the sound of the videos (if .avi) get automatically cut out when you put the vid into osu or is it layed behind the mp3 song of the map then?
hopefully it gets cut out automatically or it destroys the quality of my song ;D.

offtopic: something like a ingame video editor would be cool, where you can change the brightness and such things. anyway, that needs to be written in feature request board lol.

From the edit screen - File, Open Song Folder and delete the video file from the folder. Make sure to make a Full Submission next time you update the map, or the video will pop up again.

Thank You :)

How do I sync up the video with the beatmap?
I tried to adjust the 'lead-in' time but it doesnt work.

im pretty sure im doing something wrong. when i click the Insert Background button and select the video, the video is in the beatmap's folder now. however, the video doesn't show up at all in the game or the editor. its just the background through the whole thing.

the video is almost 40 mb in size, is that the problem?
mattyu007
What format is the file?
COMPRESS IT to something less than 15 MB >:|
CptButtBalls
i compressed the original 313 mb video into a 40 mb .avi file with super. that was the best i could get and retain the quality, sry :(

Save the beatmap, then close osu! and reopen.

Size usually isn't a problem, but the max size for beatmaps with videos are 20MB.

i've got the video to work on osu! now, and i uploaded the original video myself onto youtube so that i could vixy it. cause im ghetto like that :D

It's possible to put more than 1 video in a map but video layers like pass and fail aren't supported by osu! yet. If you really want it then request it in the Feature Requests section.

No, remove the audio from the video and use a mp3/ogg for the song.

Yes, as long as the video doesn't have audio it's fine.

Ok, so i have the video up with the help of vix, but when i try to make mp3 only, it failed on me and the music simply would not play. The music comes form the video i have, but i need a way too extract it into audio only, but not get that very same error (and i have tried twice).

Try using the mp3 from your iPod or iTunes. The music doesn't have to come from the video.

Can osu support the h264 video in the background?
I can't convert my h264 video into h263 with Mediacoder 0.7 4616.
It's too hard to get that work.

Is there some way to add decent-quality videos onto beatmaps without lagging? Blurry and pixelized videos irk me, but whenever I try to put a video into my beatmap, they all come out very choppy, and the whole beatmap will lag, not just the video. I don't know if it's my computer's problem (I'm using a budget netbook, MSI U100), or is it just that Osu can't support good videos? I tried using a HD video, which obviously lagged, so I tried a 854×480, but it's no better. What seems to be the problem?

Dudes! Use Linkyoutube.com

You just have to type "Link" in front of Youtube and your done!

The "F" buttons on my computer are used to do things like change to volume or turn the internet on/off...I can't use them in games. My computer can't read the ".osu" file without a special program or something. Can someone tell me how to insert a video?
