View Full Version : Seeking Video Partners (Any Expert Instrument, In Defense of Npeaen, Et Cetera)

What with YouTube and Warner Music Group cracking down on Rock Band videos in an increasingly aggressive, illogical and unnecessary fashion - and quality contributors such as Npeaen and jarr3tt88 being forced to abandon their original channels, create duplicate accounts and otherwise evade the hassle - I felt it was necessary to provide people with an alternative.

It is immensely important that video previews of DLC exist and that they be easily accessed and of a sufficient quality. How else are customers supposed to make an informed purchase, especially in the case of songs they're not familiar with?

Thus I propose a radical change.

First, we abandon YouTube and its frustration for an alternative...something along the lines of Vimeo, for instance, and its commitment to HD availability.

Second, we form a collective, a group of top instrumentalists dedicated to serving the Rock Band public by producing these videos in a timely and professional manner.

Third, we advertise this collective and cultivate support and good will from the community.

Fourth, we arrange a well-oiled, swift recording mechanism, enlisting people with a capability similar to Jarr3tt88RB's Hauppauge 1212 HD PVR to produce detailed, high-definition videos.

Fifth, we pair off in order to display the note charts of all instruments on Expert difficulty. Enforcing only two instruments per recording will make for a distributed workload and overall clearer and sharper videos with little screen clutter or business getting in the way of the charts.

Sixth, we repeat steps 3-5 ad infinitum until the powers that be at Microsoft and Harmonix attend to this themselves or until the flow of DLC ceases. Or maybe until the next Ice Age. Who knows?

I humbly seek partners for this venture.

Ah, I see you have a remarkable amount of DLC, Smurfy, and are a capable instrumentalist. Should you wish to continue, all we need now are two other members, the monetary resources to provide DLC to our entire group and capture card technology on someone's end.

Hopefully some of the more philanthropic members of the community will help ease that pressure, eh?
