Also, all of the matches are from 6.0

I have about 80 more from a bunch of other B+ patches but I don't think I can view them anymore due to desyncing. Not that it really matters I suppose :p Gunna order the Dazzle tonight and hopefully I'll get the videos up by next Monday.

On average how long does a it take to record a match? (I imagine its just the length of the match itself durr hurr)
How big are the files on average?

Edit: What does dazzle save the videos as on your computer/does it even do that?
I'm looking at the reviews right now and all I see are people saying "Does exactly what it says it will do" or "This thing is god awful."

2nd edit: The more I research it the more I find people *****ing about how low quality the Dazzles are. haha

It's only low quality if you record as such. If you have the HDD space, you could make really high quality vids.

I can, the only reason why I don't is because of how long it'd take for upload to Youtube.

In this order:

1.) It is about the same length as the match itself, more-or-less varying depending on the program you use.
2.) The file sizes differ based on the quality you set the recording to. Obviously, the lower the quality, the lower the file size.
3.) Dazzle doesn't save the video footage, per se. It's a tool that converts video signals from your composite cables (or even S-video cable) to digital information that your computer can read. Think of it like a high-quality Webcam that connects to both the Wii and the computer. It takes a capture program like Windows Movie Maker or the program that comes bundled with a new Dazzle device to actually capture and save the video footage onto your computer.

That's what I figured so I went looking around for more information and all I found was,
Dazzle products only work with the .. it starts with a P i cant think of the name software, and that even then the Dazzle doesn't actually put anything on your computer it just write straight to a CD (which I didn't think was even possible?)

The software is called Pinnacle. And you can have it output an avi file. That's how I do it. It's pretty good quality.

Ok so I've been messing around with the Dazzle and it seems like on every video about 2 minutes into the recording it starts lagging. :-\

Any tips?

Make sure your computer isn't doing anything else. Pinnacle software is a resource hog. I ****ed up a few replay videos before I figured out I can't really do anything else while recording vids.

On the topic of Japanese Brawl+, Valuno has some videos uploaded from Nico.

I also watched a lot of the matches from the Guy/JCz set. From both winners and grand finals starting here:

A lot of good matches. Guy's Diddy really surprised me.

And also, some of my new vids are really good:

I can't stand watching videos recorded with a camera. I closed it the moment I saw it. Get a recording device. :p

You offer to do that, yet you wouldn't upload a measly 20 matches.

:(

Wait, how does Japan have the gold version of Brawl+?

Was the FPC ported to japan? If so, what about the Palies? D:

That diddy kong player from the first post is really good. I was quite shocked. Now I got to train with him to try and get the hang of how he played in that version which either looked like GSH2 or 6.0 due to the date of the tourney.
