I just finished a rough DVD of the Mega Man X1 and Mega Man X2 joint run by DeHackEd. It takes advantage of DVD's multi-angle capabilities with five video tracks of the run: one matching the video as seen in the AVI on this site (split screen), two featuring each game on its own, and two with one game taking up the entire screen with a picture-in-picture of the other game in the upper-right portion of the screen. Four audio tracks are featured, including a trip-enducing 4.0 surround sound channel with Mega Man X 1 coming from the front speakers and Mega Man X 2 coming from the rear, a "VCD" stereo track with Mega Man X 1 monaurally coming from the left channel and X 2 from the right, and one for each game on its own. I'm aware that there's a certain interest in DVDs of these runs in general, and once I polish this one up I'll get to work on the other "recommended" runs. I was merely inquiring as to the interest in this. I mainly made this for myself so I could show runs to people when I'm somewhere where only a DVD player is accessible (or reasonable to "watch" something on), and from what I can tell interest seems to be reasonable enough for this sort of thing. I have no idea how distribution would work, whether by torrent or by some sort of mail ordering system (or a combination of the two), but I would like to get a feel for the level of interest in this. Incidentally, while this DVD only has the one run, other discs would have substantially more runs, since they will not be multi-angle. I currently need to encode more heavily in order to improve the picture quality, but otherwise the end result is quite good.
Notes: The movie is encoded with interlacing at 59.94 frames per second. As a result the movie is about three seconds LONGER than it should be. There is no way to work around this and maintain reasonable picture quality, unfortunately. Also, since it's interlaced, it may not give reasonable picture quality on devices that don't support interlacing, such as some projection TVs or computer screens. This disc is designed with conventional television sets in mind. Similarly, the black border around the image is to avoid the "Action-safe" cutoff around conventional television screens.

Switching between these video tracks is done by pressing the "angle" button on a DVD Player's remote. It generally takes about five or six seconds to change.
