Any news on the release of this?

[Romero]

No news. I had the video pretty much finished, only thing missing was/is the break scenes between rounds. But I got pretty much all negative feedback from the other two videos style of missing the beat meter (which was the same here) that I decided not to release this at least now. Maybe if I figure out some new way of doing it etc. I'll get back to it and release it then.

How about releasing it for those of us who prefer it without a beat meter?
I find them distracting and takes my attention away form the porn.
Upload it to youporn or something and send me the link.....please!

[Romero]

I'll see what I can do. Like I said, my approach with having no beats or beat meter in the T&J3 and H&C videos got pretty much only negative feedback. So I don't think I'll be doing this one or my next videos in the same way. So I will see what approach I'm gonna take in the future and see about finishing this one that way.

Releases will anyways be in torrent form also in the future.

I decided to release this "as is" since I got some requests.

Check the first post for links.

Is it possible for someone else to add a beat meter? I know nothing about video editing, but if it is possible, some people might want to just do the editing and others could pick up the beat meter bits.

[Romero]

It doesn't work quite like that.
The issue is not with video editing, but with the addition of beats to songs. You need to do that separately in an audio editing program, then export just the beat track, create the beatmeter from that in a separate program, then export the song with the beat track together and add the whole thing to the video.

So in short, no, you cannot add a beatmeter afterwards without a huge amount of work.

I like it without a beat meter, thanks for the up Romero, been looking forward to this my good man.

[Romero]

Thanks, try it before you call it good though

I'm kind of torn between quitting the video producing and continuing with it. I like the creative process and it's fun to play through the videos when testing them out. The beat thng is bumming me out though so I need to figure out something new if I'm gonna continue with this.

Maybe I'll start a new series and call it something different from Cock Hero, I guess there's no rule that says all of the videos made by everyone have to be in the Guitar Hero format. If I just let go of the beat meter concept I might as well try to come up with some totally (or even slightly) new game/challenge that could suit my video making skills. Or lack of thereof

For what it's worth, I loved it!!! I can take or leave the beat meter - it's rarely fast enough to get me to the edge, so I prefer these kind of vids.

It's got a fantastic amount of kink it it - something missing from almost all CH vids.

I'm still in hope that someone creative will do a pure Femdom one :)

Thanks so much for the hard work on this!!!

You have a nice selection of videos here, why did you decide to encode it as interlaced? Those jaggy edges deserve a special place in hell.

Also what kind of trouble are you having with the beatmeter? If you don't mind me asking.

[Romero]

The trouble is not with the beat meter. That I can do easily if I have a beat track that's in sync with the song. The problem is matching the beats. I tried doing it in my first 2 videos but found it way too time consuming for me. Since a couple of the new CH videos came out with nearly perfect beat matching I realized I'd never be able to do it even nearly as well. If the scene and music selection, video editing, title etc creation and everything else takes me x amount of time, the beat matching takes x times 5.

Some of the reason for this is the fact that I use Hammerhead to generate the beats (as it's the only one I have and the only one I know how to use) and it can only do exact bpm:s. Many of the songs I pick have a non-exact bpm (like 98.3 bpm for example) so I cannot stream a set of beats more than a couple seconds long at a time. Couple this with the admittedly bad skills I have with Audacity for the beat matching and the whole process is torture. And since I do this on my free time "voluntarily" I don't see a point in grinding my teeth in agony with it.

About the interlacing, I've got no answer. I used the same render settings as I always do (or at least I was supposed to). Might be that I had fiddled with some switches and not checked them properly. Like I wrote in the opening post I'm releasing this as is, which means that it's not actually complete. But since I'm pretty sure I'd never get down to recreating some of the problematic scenes, figuring out what to do with the beats etc. I thought just to release it like it was since I got some requests for it.

[LCatt]

Right on man, was just curious. I know what you mean about the beatmatching being a pain, that's why I stick to house tracks, they all have a 125 - 130 bpm and are fairly easy to beatmatch, nice work either way.

[Romero]

Yeah, I know it would be a lot simpler to pick tracks that have a computer generated exact beat to begin with. But it's kind of the same thing as with the scenes, I need to personally like it for me to get into using it in my stuff and I normally listen to other kinds of music.
