Fourteen Monthsâ?¦

What can happen in just fourteen months? Let me tell youâ?¦..

Letâ??s start with deciding to create the most complete, high quality, MAME video set. Then letâ??s add a baby, company struggling then finally going completely under, job hunts, new job, and no time to spare. Add to that the hosting for this site went crazy this last year and the site ended up being retooled and relaunched. Now on the other end of that fourteen months I look back and do not understand why I even tried to make this set. And still I sit back with a big grin and realize I just completed a Video Preview Set with 7 ,435 video clips. EmuMovies just had itâ??s 3rd anniversary on March 19th and if I add up all of the videos I have made in those fist two years the total is 6,757. Every single video in this set was played and then hand edited for content, to create the most accurate preview possible. I am proud of this set, it is the highest quality video set that I have ever produced. Everything that I have figured out in the last 3 years about what would make the best set has been applied. Avg 30 sec files, actual gameplay with all the sounds and music, 3-5 sec of title sequence, cropping, artwork, and the files captured in such a way to make it perfect no matter the front end (HQ, SQ, Vertical, Horizontal).

To sum up the MAME Video Snaps are DONE, COMPLETED, IN THE BAG, WOOHOOOOO!!!!

I do need to say this, I have now actually played EACH and EVERY SINGLE MAME GAMEâ?¦. Oh my god, there are ALOT of really crap games. I would think to myself, â??this shit was actually in a thousand plus dollar arcade machine and people would play quarters to play?? WTF??!!??â? ;) Seriously though, everyone should try that just once, it will really sap your will :)

Seriously though, I hope everyone really enjoys this latest EmuMovies release, it has been my pleasure to produce it. Expect updates to the latest mame version shortly and updates for new versions regularly.

Effective immediately this set will be included on all DVD orders and has been uploaded to the FTP Server. The torrent will be made available May 1st 2008. I have decided to wait on the torrent release to give all the folks who have supported this site over the past year a little something extra for their support. I canâ??t say how much I thank the EmuMovies supporters out there. Itâ??s been alot of fun getting real hosting, and relaunching the new website this last year, and being able to open the FTP site with direct downloads has been a kick!

Fantastic!!! Your dedication to this project is nothing short of astonishing. I truly appreciate the work you have done. My cab would not be nearly as cool or as intuitive without your contributions.

Another big thanks from me, Circo - now that I've got a decent video card in my arcade machine, I can now actually enjoy your preview vids. Awesome stuff!

There seems to be some confusion about how to actually set up the MAME videos with different front ends. This is an article that I wrote that explains the all the directories and how to implement the videos with your front end. If any more detail's are needed I will work on something better. As soon as I have a day off I will finish the info's and stuff on my site.

Tom, you don't have to download it ALL over again, filezilla (ftp client) will resume if you just match the final directory structure on your hard drive.

Thanks for the link to the documentation! I didn't realize that GameEx resized vertical games to the correct resolution. That would explain why they get smashed when I preview them (I just downloaded the horizontal and artowork/full directories, so I guess I need the vertical too.

Thanks for the hard work Circo!

There will be continuous updates to the mame set, and will be easily accessable. Any missing or new games will be available for direct download since folks have been buying the dvds.

Dat for control?
