Hi Jess that would be good to see you drop past one day and say hi always good to see your smile

Yeah think I will!! But when are you going to come racing again?? I'm sure the GTR needs some cobwebs swept away :banana: You would get a kick out of MRA!!!

ya i didnt compile it with sound ( not on purpose ) . it took 1'ish hours to compile on the notebook, so haven't been bothered to do it again.

plus the transition and some of the cut footage didnt render in smoothly, not really sure why. stupid premiere.

I asked the same question in the Vic section with no response as yet.....advice for youtube noob.

I have a vid that has an aspect ration of 720x576 yet when I upload it it appears as 4:3. How do I keep the aspect ration the same as the original file?

I found it to be such a nightmare when I first tried to edit with moviemaker and then upload. It would come up with green lines top and bottom, or be 4:3. Even one of those videos above is off. The reason the other one works well is because it wasn't edited at all, just a straight upload.

I asked the same questions mate: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ca...ne#entry4752760

Thanks Dane. The thing is that I have edited the clips using windows movie maker with no dramas. I can play the edited clips and the aspect ratio is spot on. However when I uploaded these clips to youtube they have been squashed to a 4:3 ratio.

Ok it appears there is a diff between uploading wmv and avi files. I managed to upload the avi's without youtube changing the aspect ratio.....

Two of my fastest runs at Haunted Hills over the weekend:

I was experiencing exactly the same thing, it was only when uploading them that they were changed by Youtube.

I was then havign to convert them to .avi's using another program, then upload them. Pain in the arse :down:

Speaking of things being painfull. I bought a new Canon SD card video camera. It takes good videos but appears to use a .mov file format which my dodgy Microsoft video editing software fails to recognise. Any ideas what I can use instead?

I can't remember what it's called, and don;t have it on this new computer, but if you look up file converting software you'll find some that can convert it from .mov to .avi, then you should be ok.

I bought "Pinnacle Studio", wasn't too expensive and unlike windows movie maker runs all the input and output formats you would want (WMM does not support HD or widescreen on win64). Also easy to use.

The GoPro HD I recently got outputs in mp4 format.

I use Xilisoft HD Video Converter to convert them to regular mpg then use MPEG-VCR to cut out the bits I dont want then convert them back into mp4. The end result after the cutting and converting is a file that is about 10% of the original size.

    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
