short music video

[Roni]

I started Nesdevving with no prior programing experience four months ago. I lurked the site, got all the info i could and set out with lofty goals which i am nowhere near accomplishing. But i amassed a large collection of .NES files that were all glitchy and some that weren't so i decided to compile some of them into a short music vid with some music i did on Famitracker.

OK i know this is like going to a skatepark and asking people to watch you ollie, but if anyone's interested, here it is:

Quite interesting, but glitched! Anyway, I *had* to add &fmt=18 because YouTube destroys video quality.

&fmt=18 ?

Yeah you can barely make out NES pixels on YouTube from a video i exported at 856x480

That's a cool little collection of test programs. That's good progress for 4 months starting from scratch, too.

I can hardly even watch the first programs I made, because they mostly only work on the earliest emulators.

Not at all, that's aimed at advertising for money.

- It's a trick to play in high quality on YouTube. You add &fmt=18 at the string end.

And for HD videos, &fmt=22.

Okay the fmt 18 trick works sometimes but not always, and why exactly 18 ? Or 22 ? I'd like a technical explaination here please.

There's some info here. I believe the thing "fmt" means "format", and the number is merely a format index. There are other formats available too.
