Baby Deltic Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 So what does it mean?? Regards John. I think it refers to the length of the out takes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
clecklewyke Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 If you're using Safari in an IMac running OSX as opposed to the smaller devices it's easy to get to full screen When you start the video click on the words 'You Tube' at bottom right (not on the tool bar but bottom right of the image) and that takes you to it running on You Tube then just click on the 'full screen' button at the extreme right of the tool bar. Thank you Stationmaster, this was helpful. (And they say Macs have an intuitive interface!) I have tried this and although I can get to "Large Player" I cannot set it to "Full Screen", in neither Safari nor Firefox, although I can get "Full Screen" on either of these browsers with other videos, including YouTubes. I suspect it is something about John's video that is the problem. Never mind, the video was pretty impressive even if not full screen. Keep it up, your Lairdship!

TheLaird Posted June 21, 2012 Author Share Posted June 21, 2012 Just had time to stitch another one together, with note taken of your suggestions. Here goes.... http://youtu.be/Wi5qzRvb-1Y Comments, good, bad, or indifferent, are positively encouraged. John E. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tom F Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 The sound systems are SWD ESUv3.5 on all the diesels. Speakers are either 40x20mm or 23mm round, nothing special. I do fit them in enclosures and ensure they are sealed with blue tac. Thanks for the response. It was your steam loco in the first video that got my attention, seemed particular clear and more realistic than some factory fitted steam sound decoders. Ideally I would like one loco of each class fitted with Sound on my layout. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is one of the most realistic yet. Speaker is a 23mm round fitted in the roof of the cab. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bibby Line Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 John, Many thanks for the update on the video updating software. Has produced very good results for you. Must also mean that you have got exposure etc spot on. Very interesting footage. Eddie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
clecklewyke Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Marvellous stuff, John, I can smell the diesel... Two points - 1. Safari crashed after I tried to return to the RMWeb window after watching the video on YouTube (still cannot get full screen, incidentally). This might just be my computer but I record it for Andy, in case anybody else has the same problem 2. Loved the flange squeal on the Peak. Could you get brake squeal on the 4MT? ian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to have used a lower resolution on the last upload as well. I too am experiencing lots of crashes and sql errors at present and very slow refreshes on RMweb. The Fairburn has brake squeal and flange squeal but I obviously didn't brake sharp enough for it to take effect!! Regards John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffP Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I'm loving this. It's just so satisfying to watch prototypical movements, instead of stuff just moving past the vantage point. However: you DO realise that you are going to HAVE to ring the changes of locos, unless you want everyone shouting at your locos when the same one appears again....just like we used to as kids. Well, WE did......"Oh, no, NOT "Great Northern" AGAIN!!!" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLaird Posted June 22, 2012 Author Share Posted June 22, 2012 Thats all for now folks! Ibiza is calling so Bradfield will be ceasing operations for the next week, will continue shooting some more on my return. Thanks for all the positive comments.

Mike J Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Enjoy your holiday John, I was at Playa Den Bossa earlier this year and had a nice break. At least the weather should be better than here, although I'm sure Bradfield in the rain would look extremely atmospheric, not to mention realistic.

Grimleygrid Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Excellent videos, John. Can we have some more when you return from holiday please?!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLaird Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 YES!! having escaped the blistering sunshine of Ibiza, we're back in soggy old blighty. In deepest, darkest Yorkshire the wheels are turning again. Normal service has resumed at Bradfield, the skies are still reassuringly grey with the occasional interlude of that Pennine speciality, liquid sunshine. And just to prove it, we have the latest episode of "the Bradfield Chronicles" to look forward to. This exciting episode continues the early hours theme, featuring the arrival of the St Pancras Parcels and the despatch of the Skipton Mails. Watch this space.... It is a lengthier clip than previous and is taking forever to upload so the link will follow shortly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodenhead Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 There's a bit a 1:20 that sounds like a loo being flushed lol - these sound effects are getting impressive. Joking aside, another exquisite masterclass in modelling/operation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

P.C.M Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Hi John, Superb video, I just love those working signals. The ground signal is just brilliant. The Peak and class 08 sound good too, are they the factory sound chips? Cheers Peter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve fay Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Super video myself and my 2 year old daughter just watched. It took her attention off the Disney channel for 10 mins, Praise indeed. Brilliant layout, its among my favorites on Rmweb Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
