    Some of my recent uploaded vids on youtube came out looking what you described.

    The origionals were .mts format and I converted them to .wmv using Vegas Pro 8. Youtube uploaded the newly made .wmv files with no problem.

    You might be able to convert your files using something simple as Windows Movie Maker or virtualdub.

    No fucking wonder the top players make TE's come out like Water..I knew it was something behind that all along. Not to go off on this but i hate when companies slow games down for casual players.Damn so you can obviously see the throws coming in VF5 speed compared to Evo speed. Please show me more videos i want to know more about Evo.As i watch the vids i notice Evo has a better presentation than VF5.I noticed They do this thing with the shaky cam zoom in during throws that VF5 don't do which presents the game more dramatically. I know im talking too much but this shit is amazing honestly.

    There's two things I disagree with here and I'll say why:

    1. "It was a lot faster"
    One or two frame changes in punches hardly qualifies as "a lot faster" in my mind. OK, so throws were 8 frames compared to 12 frames in VF5, this hardly makes the entire game "a lot faster". Aside from the different throw mechanics (clash, etc), VF5 also has 0f throws so the point about throw speeds is kinda moot, IMO. VF4 allowed for fast successive crouch dash cancels which you can't do in our version of VF5, but I've seen glimpses of it in R. Regardless of how fast you can make your character spazzz on screen, I still don't think this makes the gameplay any faster.

    2. "No restriction in canceling movement"
    Excuse me? VF5 has way less restrictions in movement cancels than VF4. In VF4 you can only cancel a failed evade with one thing: a forward crouch dash. In VF5 you can cancel a failed evade with 4 things: a forward dash, a back dash, a forward crouch dash, a back crouch dash. Also, VF5 offers faster and more efficient lateral movement than VF4 with fewer inputs. Compare:

    VF4: [8][3][3][G][6][6]
    VF5: [8][6][6]

    Comparing to VF4, VF5 introduced more ways in which to cancel movement, coupled with easier/less input. Which game was less restrictive again?

    Wait a second now, people aren't making TEs come out (like water even) any different to VF4. Unless you're seeing something that I'm not? Multiple TEing hasn't been made any easier in 5.

    You make it sound like VF5 is being played underwater. The line I highlighted is pretty rich IMO. I don't know of anybody that can see and escape throws on pure reaction. If you can visually discern 4 frames (the difference between 12 and 8) then you have a gift.

    The new throw escape mechanic introduced in 5R is the yutori nagenuke (lenient throw escape) whereby you can simply hold a single TE for as long as you want and you'll successfuly escape that throw's direction. The application of this is you can be standing in a guard with a single TE already primed. But this has nothing to do with the speed at which the attacker is throwing, nor any magical ability to see-and-escape a throw on reaction.

    VF4 Evo was great, but let's not get carried away with nostalgia distorting the facts?

    The reason I said that, is that as far as I know, in VF5 there are few frames (like 5 or so) after movement inputs after which you can not cancel movement with anything even if you could input the command. In Vf4 there was afaik no restriction so you could cancel evade with CD with arbitrary speed.

    If Im wrong again I apologize, but this is what I meant by restrictions.

    Not to go off topic with this, but I hate when so-called vets go on a binge of rose tinted glasses and start talking shit. VF5? hell yeah it's like underwater jelly while stoned and the jelly is on drugs too!!!!!!!11!!ELEVEN!!

    If that's really true, was it to done to eliminate ARE? Would stair stepping still be possible though if that restriction was there?

    you see TEG alot more in VF4 because of the restriction.
    you can hardly do anything without a TE input after -3 (depending on character).

    i remember sitting at home busting out DTEGs at -10, ahh man those days.

    i guess it was just dicipline.

    The problem with VF4 as far I can tell, is that the old P/2P--Throw is even more effective that it is now.

    I know that's considered a staple move in VF system, but as we are often talking of making VF more approchable to the newcomers, I feel that this particular trick is somehow off-putting.

    I await the flames from the vets now.
