Should get to Dev's around 1PM tomorrow with setups. Anyone else driving in, be warned there's a small detour all day tomorrow at the Kirkwood/Carling overpass.

Hey Dev, does it matter when people show up? I was thinking about coming over at 11:30-12, unless that's a problem.

Nope, it's a new feature.

Which one? The screen-centring move? Maybe I'm wrong but it just seems like a ghetto version of magneto's attraction that only works when the opponent is full-screen.

Yeah, by itself, I don't think it's a very good move. Or at least, it seems more of a mechanic to get in than out. With Peacock and Squigly, I'm thinking of calling the assist, then doing a teleport to see if I can get mix ups. It's gimmicky as shit but I wanna see what I can do with it.

As an assist, you might be able to use it to re-center your opponents during combos?

It's a brand new mechanic, I'm sure something crazy can be done with it.

EDIT: Screw that, solo Peacock is way more interesting now.

I have to run some errands this morning. I should be back by 12:00, but there's a chance it'll be a bit longer. There's nobody else home, so I'd rather not leave the door unlocked. You can text me later if you want to check when I'm gonna be back.

Looks like we're back to two setups. Any interest in playing the Skullgirls beta on my laptop?

Posted

I'm going to move my desktop to a more usable location for the day, for Melty and Skullgirls beta. Also, my errands took way less time than I expected, so I'm back already.

Anyone looking for an external capture card? I'm selling my AverMedia Live Gamer Portable (1 month old) for 150$.

I think MSRP is around 180$? (not including tax + shipping fee). I have the receipt and it comes with everything (retail box, accessory, cables, 3 months premium x-split card, etc).

Info below if you're interested:

I have Phil's allen key here. Also, somebody's USB dongle.

Pretty sure its mine. Been looking for it for a while though I could've sworn I left with it.

Oof, this is super tempting...

Can I test it out first?

Okay so several people PM'd me regarding the LGP, sorry I couldn't reply right away I just came back from work. I'll try to answer them here instead because wall of text.

1. Why I bought it

I got the capture card to mainly record/stream PC games.

2. Reason for selling/Why I don't want it

It doesn't support my monitors resolution which is 1920x1200 (16:10 aspect ratio). To be more precise I can get it to work, but it's a hassle and there are black bars on every side of the screen so it's really shitty. This was only the case with PC capture & streaming, my PS3/360 worked fine just like it's supposed to even if was recorded using my 1920x1200 monitors.

Here's a screenshot of my desktop monitors in case you don't believe me: http://i.imgur.com/HlEscpp.jpg

On my laptop everything works fine with both PC and consoles since it's a 1920x1080 resolution (16:9 aspect ratio a.k.a "FULL HD").

For reference you'll get the best result using 16:9 aspect ratio monitors or laptops. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Vector_Video_Standards4.svg

These are the resolution LGP officially supports:

Standards

Resolution Input/ Pass-through:

640 x 480 (60p), 720 x 480 (60p), 720 x 576 (50p), 800 x 600 (60p), 1024 x 768 (60p), 1280 x 720p (50p), 1280 x 720p (60p), 1280 x 768 (60p), 1280 x 800 (60p), 1280 x 1024 (60p), 1360 x 768 (60p), 1440 x 900 (60p), 1680 x 1050 (60p), 1920 x 1080 (50i), 1920 x 1080 (60i), 1920 x 1080 (24p), 1920 x 1080 (25p), 1920 x 1080 (30p), 1920 x 1080 (50p), 1920 x 1080 (60p)

Capture:

640 x 480 (60p), 720 x 480 (60p), 720 x 576 (50p), 800 x 600 (60p), 1024 x 768 (60p), 1280 x 720p (50p), 1280 x 720p (60p), 1280 x 768 (60p), 1280 x 800 (60p), 1280 x 1024 (30p), 1360 x 768 (50p), 1440 x 900 (30p), 1680 x 1050 (30p), 1920 x 1080 (24p), 1920 x 1080 (25p), 1920 x 1080 (30p)

Note:

[1] Upscaling is not supported

[2] Live Gamer Portable does not work with 1920*1200 monitors.

^I usually read the specs before buying something but I felt really lazy that day.

3. So then why didn't you return it?

15% restocking fee + didn't want pay the shipping all the way back to vancouver + store credit only.

4. Is there anything wrong with it?

No, if there was I would have RMA'd it right away.

5. Can I test it first to see if it works/before buying?

Yeah it's all good, but it'll be easy for me if it was at HQ (when it's open) or at Gonk meetup.

Yeah of course, I just posted a wall of text on SRK and was going to post this here but you beat me to it.

Some other important stuff I forgot to mention.

- I'll be selling the capture card to whoever offers me the $ in person first (it's best this way).

- If you're worried that the device is going to shit itself shortly after a few days of use, don't worry I got you covered. LGP has a 1 year manufacturer warranty so if there's any hardware problem you can contact me. But please don't break the thing intentionally in case you change your mind right before the warranty expires hoping that I'll do something about it (I'll punch you in the dick if you try to pull this sort of thing).

Yeah, I'm pretty sold on it just on the idea of a USB/HDMI capture. I just wanna try it so that it works with my laptop or desktop.

I'm not sure about HQ availability because of Bluesfest but I definitely wanna grab it this week. Is that possible or am I facing tough competition for it?

Yeah the competition pretty fierce, I just woke up cause of text message from James saying that he'll be coming to pick it up in couple of hours.

Double posting because I'm the scumlord of Ottawa.

Scott, I need you to try something for me. For Skullgirls SDE, run Fortune, Cerebella and Parasoul or Filia with DP assist online and tell me how that goes. I suspect you will be laughing the entire time you play.

Anyone else playing the SG beta?

Heh, yeah, that would work well. Bella's DP is underrated too. It doesn't hit as far in-front but it is easy to combo off. Ran with that a few times with Squigly's cr.HP as a ghetto Cerecopter. (It's even easier to pick up from, but doesn't work as well versus incoming or off throws.)

Moi.

EDIT: Also, will you have the new furniture?
