Very nice :)
-
Whoa, Zozo! :-) That is very cool! Is there an avi/divx version?
-
We can ask the video owner (gutlessyogi) to send us the original avi version. Shall I write him or has already anybody written him? At any case I have saved the flv file and attached it to this message.
(Is the word already correct here in my sentence?)

hi i was the AD at the agency making this ad. I have it as a transfer from VHS to vob files on DVD disc. I helped launch it in the UK and was involved with the company . there was a 64k version too.

Ohh. That is great! The ad is very cool! :-) Thank you.
Do you have an Enterprise, by the way? ;-)

It's great! Can you publish the DVD version on anyway? (upload to ftp or copy and send DVD or etc)
Do you have other Enterprise materials?
Your agency also produced the printed commercials for the Enterprise?
-
Excellent advert - hadnt seen that before !!
If you do have that and the 64K version as a vob and cant upload it - happy to pay for a copy and shipping costs - im in the UK anyway !!
Cheers (and welcome to the site)

hi if one of you sends me an email with your physical address I will burn a dvd and post it to you. You can then do what you like with it.
I have no further materials unfortunately. You could try contacting the agency, Lowe, In London and speaking to someone in TV production or press production; I doubt they kept the originals. The creative team who conceived the ad were Mike Stephenson and Derek Apps. They were a well known top creative team. Mike is now a commercials director I think. If you track him down he may have a better quality copy on U matic or similar. The client was Mr Mirpuri, an Indian entrepreneur with an import/export business in the East End of London who thought this new PC thing was a good way to make money!! He acquired the franchise from the makers. They went bust fairly soon on this one as the IBM PC stormed the market soon after.

Rick,
Thanks very much for the offer - much appreciated. I will send you a PM with my contact details - let me know how I can cover your costs.
Regards,

This is VERY cool.
Too bad the youtube version has the sound distorted (or is it intentional?)
how large are the ripped DVD files? Is it a full DVD (4 gigs?)?
is it possible to host it somewhere?
I'll send you my physical address in a pm. Let me know how you'd like to have your cost covered.
-
I just got an email from gutlessyogi that one of you guys will receive the DVD.
I'd be happy if someone could host it somehow!
thanks guys,
-
Guys,
I received the DVD and I've uploaded the .dv files to the FTP site on Friday.
They will need converting to something smaller/easier to view though !!
Zozo - are you looking into converting them?
Cheers

It is a Machintos .DV files, I searching the best converter for these.
Anyone are expert in Mac videos? Any help are welcommed!
-
I'm a Mac user.
DV files are usually MPEG2 files (not mac specific).
I could convert the files for you (e.g. to quicktime H264 mpeg4), if you send me any info where to get the files from.
try this google search for DV to xxxx conversion (http://www.google.nl/search?q=converting+DV+files&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a)
<-- I'm in the office at the moment ;-) usually there's Mac OS X there.

You can find the commercial in the Videos folder of the Download (in the menubar) section of the site.
Thanks to everyone who helped in that!
-
it may be my measly office laptop, but the video and audio aren't very good.
there's still stuttering (like the youtube one) and the video seems to drop frames as well?
I'll try tonight at home, maybe that'll be better.
Is the source not very good maybe?
-
The original .DV files now available from the Downloads.
Can you try it to convert?
-
I'll check tonight.
-
I just downloaded and tried the .dv files, but they have the audio stuttering as well.
So, I can assume the source is "corrupt"?
Are these the actual source files or is there a real DVD with a VIDEO_TS folder with VOB files?
-
Marcof,
Clip plays fine for me - are you sure the stuttering in the voice is not intended? Its "Max Headroom" - a 1980's character (was supposed to be a computer malfunctioning) - so the stutter in voice is how its supposed to be.
Cheers

Just to confirm this: That's Matthew Frewer doing the voice-over and he did indeed play Max Headroom. Compare with this YouTube clip. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEPq0FvFm3g)
