DanielNegreanu 141 Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Hi guys, just a heads up, we worked out the "issues" we were having with the files on my computer and a bunch of my content will be released tomorrow. It will be a bit of everything including:A Heads Up match from the WCOOP$1-$2 No Limit Hold'em SessionThe Sunday Million From here on in, every week you'll get a new heads up video, some tournament stuff, as well as some cash. That, plus the video updates of actual live hands that we cut up, both with headphones and without. I'm tryin' y'all :-) Link to post Share on other sites

DanielNegreanu 141 Posted December 4, 2008 Author Share Posted December 4, 2008 Ok, slightly annoying y'all, the updates were supposed to be on the site today but the meaty stuff isn't up there yet. Apparently it takes several hours to upload the videos and they didn't get them up. I'm on it, though, crackin' heads and will this stuff squared away and the content should be more consistently updated from here on in every Tuesday. Link to post Share on other sites

DanielNegreanu 141 Posted December 5, 2008 Author Share Posted December 5, 2008 I was at the studio today filming some live stuff and getting on them about the content. They have assured me they'll get it done tomorrow and once we are past this little rough patch things will run smoothly from here on out and I won't look like a liar anymore! :-) We will get this right guys, we will. The stuff is ready and just needs to be uploaded at this point. He told me he could get the first heads up match up for sure, and then about 20 minutes each of $1-$2 NL hold'em video and 20 minutes of the Sunday Million I shot. Link to post Share on other sites

The holidays are what delayed things. I'm a total tech idiot, so they set it up at my house and then a guy has to come and pick up the file. Thursday was Thanksgiving and the weekend they don't work. I told them to come get it early Monday morning for a Tuesday release. They didn't get the files till Tuesday afternoon, As far as the process of them getting up is concerned, as you can see it is a very cool site in terms of being user friendly and they always make things look "nice." They also edit the long videos into segments. You are right, it shouldn't take all that long, but I had a good discussion with them today about how I'd like to roll out my content from here on out. I'm going to try to get out at least an hour of fresh content out myself, covering heads up, tournaments, and cash each week. The boys we are bringing on board seem motivated and there should be more than enough solid, fresh content coming out every week. In addition to that content, there will three video hands that we did, both normal and headphone hands a week. I shot some absolutely hilarious hands with Brad. Also, Josh just goes on stone cold tilt against Brad and some of it is pretty funny along with being educational! Link to post Share on other sites

Also, Josh just goes on stone cold tilt against Brad and some of it is pretty funny along with being educational!I hear it. Family + holidays delays everything (these are good delays of course).[tech talk] I know it takes more than what I simplified it to (but not much for recorded online). I know the delay is not mere uploading holding up your awaiting fans and students. I thought that would have been the reply - waiting for one of the tech guys to 'come over the top'. Sounds great with the live play and your analysis - one of the things that sold me on PVT when I first checked it out. I'm sure you have lots of donkey's willing to give up some buyins to get involved in your studio, and while i'm not a donkey (much anymore) I'll play one if you need heh Btw I think I have picked up on 2 tells with your online play. Stake me and we'll play HU (kinda like hellmuth's insurance eh?) Link to post Share on other sites
JCarver 0 Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 I can probably talk about the tech side of things better than DN can. They do have to watermark, edit, and process the vids, as you know - and that's about it for online, so it's a pretty fast turnover. Stuff can be prepared fairly fast, as long as they know it's coming in advance and aren't preoccupied with other projects. These guys do quite often have a lot of work on their plates though so sometimes there's a backlog of stuff which sometimes accounts for the slowdowns. Worst case scenario, the content is ready for publication within a few days. The live content requires quite a bit more of labor before it can go up, but I don't think you're talking about that.

The tech delays and hold ups have been due to corrupted files. The bugs have been worked out and the transition of uploaded content to PVT modules will be much smoother.So quit bustin his -----!
