miltonandmichele Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 hey sports fans! i make Skins DVDs for my own personal use and for trading here and there. I wanted to get some feedback on whether you prefer DVDs with the commercials or without. personally, i prefer to leave the commercials in to preserve the entire broadcast. i love watching old games and checking out some of the old commercials as a kind of "time capsule". sometimes, i'm forced to edit out commercials so the game can fit on the DVD without over-compressing the video. i also split the game into multiple DVDs in order to encode at the highest possible bitrate. what are your feelings on this topic?? http://miltizme.blogspot.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shsu1 Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 I could go either way, but I like your take on commercials. I wouldn't mind if they were left in or taken out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roulette Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 I always prefer to have them removed. Games are long enough to begin with. With a broadcast, you can use breaks to get food/ bathroom whatever. But on DVD, pause it and come back. That's just me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finally Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 hmmm I can't believe I'm gonna say this but I think I would rather keep the commercials lol especially the superbowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miltonandmichele Posted June 8, 2006 Author Share Posted June 8, 2006 One option that i will explore as i convert my Skins games on VHS to DVD, is to remove the commercials from the game DVD, but save any interesting commercials and put on another DVD. personally, i love a commercial with a good jingle or one that's really creative. http://miltizme.blogspot.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebornempowered Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 My personal opinion is to give them the ax. That's just me though. With some games last year I edited the whole game to 28 minutes because I just made it snap to whistle. It's a great way to watch a whole game without taking up 2 to 3 hours of your life.

miltonandmichele Posted June 12, 2006 Author Share Posted June 12, 2006 leave em are you selling these DVDS?? Are they good quality? i prefer to trade DVDs. i can humbly say that my DVDs can hang, stride-for-stride, with any other "home made" DVD. i PM'd my list of Skins DVDs. i also have Georgetown Hoyas and some boxing if interested. always looking to trade... cool signature banner!

ncsuapex Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I used to want the commercials in.. I like watching old VHS tapes from the 80s and 90s that I recorded and seeing the old commericals and the old news clips during the commercials. Its cool to go back and see what was going on in the world during that game.. But now that I've got a bigger collection of games Im leaning towards just having the games on DVD, espically since it cuts the DVDs from 2 to 1..
