I see, but you don't have to be a complete asshole about it man calm down.
We'll be keeping the official encode on TVC. Sorry sonicpacker.
Did anyone besides the person who uploaded to YT make a hi-res "modern" encode?

It's comical that personal hate gets in the way of obvious proof my encode is objectively better. You people are a bunch of immature children, not to mention disrespectful to the author that gave you this potentially popular run. And Nahoc, the mods can ban me, but you can go fuck yourself. You should have nothing to do with the publishing of this run due to me being involved. You are trash and your ex-friends all think so. I don't care if this doesn't get the link changed or progresses towards it. You're a garbage human being.
Now to anyone with a fucking brain that has some power here, look at the fact that my encode is FAR superior (seriously, choppy frames AND the compression are absolutely ugly as fuck) and it's by the authors' request that it links to mine. That's all I have to say. And again, FUCK you Nahoc, you're disgusting.

We could take your encode and host it on TVC. That way we would be using an "objectively better" encode and satisfying the requirement that it be on the TVC channel.

We have a policy of linking to an external YouTube encode instead of our TVC encode on request of the author, as long as the external encode conforms to publishing standards (which the senior publisher approved). We'll still have an encode on TVC, but the external one should be linked. I'd like to know Nahoc's reasons for stating otherwise.
@sonicpacker: There are mature and civil ways to handle this. Swear-filled raging rants towards Nahoc are not one of them.
EDIT: Also, I replaced the link in the publication to sonicpacker's encode.

No need to wonder when you can just look at it. Not that this is something to compete/find offense over. I am simply using it as evidence for what the correct scenario for this situation would be, which is rightfully linking to my upload, as homerfunky requested.
This I've already done. Stop getting your panties in a twist over it.

If you read my last edit, I acknowledged it. I was simply clarifying why I brought the quality of feos's encode into question.
I wonder how your 43GB encode is so much better than mine when mine is 43GB as well! How did you encode it? Maybe by dropping every other frame (to make it effectively 30fps) you succeeded to preserve twice as good quality? If so, I really can still improve mine.
PS: I don't think null frames add anything to file size anyway.
If you both have the same key frames and the only difference is some missing B frames that are redundant frames, then there would be little reason for either a full 60FPS version or a version with less than 60 FPS would be that much different in size. Especially if rounding to the nearest GB.

Why are you being such an ASSHOLE recently? I mean Jesus man I thought you were a nice guy. I was just asking something politely and you literally bitch about it. What did the site do to you wrong?
When asking something politely, it helps to be polite. One cannot just pretend to be polite or say so later.

It was just curiosity and.... waita minute... how does this sound rude to you!? But it's not rude! It was only a question! Not retorical or indirect.

I'm gonna level with you here, Jerry. Can I call you Jerry? Because I feel like you've put me through something over the past few months.
There's no "discrimination" here, there's only a person who completely refuses to accept that they're the one instigating all this "discrimination" in the first place. I'd like you to sit down and just think about all the shit you've started since that little "discussion" about monetization you had with mindnomad. And yes, I said the shit that you started.
You seem to think that someone being hostile towards you is what starts all these arguments, since you clearly don't think your initial hostility is what's doing it. You completely lack the "common courtesy" that you just hypocritically accused dekutony of not having, and even your posting in this thread alone proves that handily. I find that first post hilarious, personally:

That's aside from the fact that the TVC encode is inferior to mine. Mine has the crop that viewers prefer (taking up the whole player), the FPS isn't choppy in random places throughout, and 1440p is superior to 1080. 60 FPS is also useless for this game (especially with choppy frames...). It also looks like my raw encode was either better or the "official" one is overcompressed.
To people that hate me: Please don't make this about me, Nintendo has this upload claimed because of the Dire, Dire Docks music, and homerfunky himself wants this change.
Let me break this down. You probably thought you had good intentions going into this, since this was a request that was made clear earlier in the thread. But could you have brought it up with any more of a God complex? You literally spent a paragraph saying "I DID THIS BETTER YOU FUCKING FRAUDS" and followed it up with "Don't make this about me". Technically no one had to make it about you: You did it yourself.
What could you have said to make it a little more palatable? How about something like this?
homerfunky has trouble with English and asked me to post about the publication link again. He said earlier in the thread that he wanted the site to link to my YouTube encode:
homerfunky wrote:

That's it. That's all your post needed to be. No implications that the site is lazy or that the encoders suck or that people hate you for "no good reason". The error would have been corrected and everyone would be going along their merry way.
But nope, you had to slide in and boast about how superior your encode is for a good paragraph, then have the audacity to challenge people to not make any of their next posts about you. Shockingly, people complied! It's as if no one actively holds a grudge against you until you start acting up like a spoiled brat or something!
How coincidental, then, that you ended up doing that. Take your response to Nahoc: He merely said a simple, matter-of-fact statement with an apology. That's some serious restraint when talking to someone like you! And yet, you still take it as a personal attack when it was probably just an honest mistake. He said nothing directly or even indirectly attacking you, and your brilliant reaction was to bitch about how people hate you and follow it up with "FUCK you, you're disgusting".
What if someone else said the exact same thing? Would you still take it as a personal attack? Or are you entirely convinced that a small group of people on these forums are out to get you in literally every post they make? What if Nahoc or mindnomad or even me paid you an honest compliment? How would you react to that? Would it be with the same amount of vitriol lacing the rest of your responses to us?
You probably wouldn't have even gotten uppity at dekutony had he not rightfully called you an asshole for the way you responded to him, since I don't think he's wronged you in the past. You've got serious balls to accuse him of not having common courtesy after your recent posting in this thread, by the way. Is it common courtesy to attack people who are just making statements? Is it common courtesy to actively and malicious rage in your responses? Is it common courtesy to imply that you're doing things so much better than everyone else when that has literally nothing to do with the request you're being asked to help with?
Case in point, Bullfrog, you're not exactly keeping a good reputation in the slightest. People don't just "forget" all the attacks you've thrown their way without any provocation, and the only time anyone ever brings that up is when you've already launched into some spiel about how everyone hates you and how everyone's fucking terrible and disgusting or whatever. Clearing your posts doesn't mean they never happened. You can't just make all these angry posts and then expect people to forgive you at the drop of a hat when you can't even forgive people who aren't attacking you in the first place.
Let me just put it bluntly: If you stop acting like a whiny little asshole, maybe people will start liking you again. People don't like you because you're not like-able, plain and simple. No one will think you're a spoiled, stuck-up little shit if you don't act like one. You need to learn that your actions have consequences, and if you don't take responsibility for your actions, this is going to keep happening.
If you refuse to accept even the slightest bit of blame, then just leave like you promised. You've made it abundantly clear that you hate this place and that you think everyone here hates you, so maybe you'd be happier if you stuck to sites where people haven't yet seen the dark side you display here so prominently.
I look forward to you disregarding everything I say and calling me a troll again.

Nahoc caused a problem because of his personal issues with me. Mothrayas solved the problem. I deleted only what I said towards Nahoc, because as I said, there's no more problem. Obviously had it been someone other than Nahoc, I would've handled it differently. But his reply was out of spite and thinking he had power over something I wanted changed. I'm not okay with that but it's fixed now. Lastly, I don't need to call you a troll, you openly admitted it. Congrats on referencing totally irrelevant threads and your subjective view on them lol. Can we stick to SM74 and the publication? We were on the right track until your book.
The encode was made using mupen64's internal AVI capture, which I think is only 24-bit (from memory, been a while I've encoded).
Also, the pixelated aspect of the encode comes from a HQ4X filter, which I always thought looked ugly (my opinion). I don't see why your encode is "objectively superior", as feos' encode looks totally fine to me (not choppy, same resolution, uses jabo instead of glide64, but that doesn't matter for sm64 apart from the HUD).
Also, you stated homerfunky has bad English, yet his posts in this thread all look fine. I wonder why he is not posting more in this thread towards this issue. It just looks to me that you care way more about having your encode made official than he does. You've already had the views, sonicpacker, let tasvideos keep the consistency of having all the encodes on TVC from now on.

First, yes, I did grammatically fix most of what he said here. Secondly, as Mothrayas stated, the rules were followed and there's no reason not to.

Thank you for letting your jealousy shine through just a little more :) And while you're suggesting to make this thread less controversial, you could try not being the root of controversey. The problem is over and the movie is properly published. Let it be.
Edit: You literally backed out of judging this movie, how about you do the same now?

I personally take considerable issue if an officially linked encode is being monetized and profited off by others (via mutual partnership, or otherwise).
"But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him." - 1 Corinthians 2:9
Is it okay to link both encodes since they have different texture styles? TBH, I don't really like HQ4X filter either. It's just personal feeling, no offense here.

?
You are the root of the controversy. You blatantly attacked me with swearing regarding personnal issues with me.
The next post you beg us to stay "on-topic". I replied with informations regarding your encode, yet you still find a way to subtly attack me more by calling me jealous and whatnot.
It's true, I didn't judge this run because I didn't have enough time to watch it at the time, but that doesn't mean I can't have an opinion here. Also, you previously mentionned you would retire your posting on here; why are you still posting on tasvideos? Because you love drama and being the center of attention. And again, I'm not sure homerfunky even cares that much about which encode is used, lol.
"I replied with informations regarding your encode"
I'm guessing someone else wrote that third paragraph in your post, then?
