I spend half my year directing concerts, but it seems I might not be needed anymore!
;^)

One song, 12 cameras, edit it then watch the playback of your cut.

Have fun!

[quote="sahonen"]The other possibility is that since (I gather from your user name) you're in the UK and the site is in Japan, you're not getting very good bandwidth... In the US we've got fiber running straight from California to Japan, but it's a bit harder for the interwebs to reach the UK from there. As for a disc-based version of this, I bet it could be done as a DVD/Blu-ray special feature.[/quote] You're right - I am indeed in the UK, so I guess my bandwidth from Japan may not be too great. Pity.

[quote="sahonen"][quote="UK_TD"]Mmm... nice idea, but the picture I get for 'TX Out' is extremely blocky and lo-res, to the point of not really being able to see what's happening at all. This is the case whether I select normal or high quality video - and I'm on a 10Mbps cable link, which does deliver that speed consistently.[/quote] If you switch it from "switching mode" to "viewing mode" it gets a lot better... Click the "switch" button down in the lower left. It probably has to do with having to buffer footage in advance. In switching mode it has to buffer all 12 streams, while in viewing mode it knows which single stream to buffer, so it can throw more bandwidth at it.[/quote] Thanks for this - but it doesn't seem to make any difference in my case whether I'm in "switching mode" or "viewing mode" - the main picture is still unviewably blocky... oh well. A shame there's no option for downloading the streams onto your hard-drive, and playing them out from there. About 18 years ago the organisation I worked for had a primitive version of something like this that allowed you to try cutting a soap on 3 or 4 cameras. This used a laserdisc attached to a PC, and, for its time, was pretty good. Imagine what could be achieved on today's PCs?

That was really awesome! I wish you could see the edits created by other users though... You can see the "rainbows" created by their shot selections, but I can't figure out a way to actually bring them down onto the timeline to view them.
