I know you have answered this question but I don't get that stupid get media program to work.
I got the files down onto my hardrive without any problems (nor any help), then I tried to install the prog, but it gave me some form where I was supposed to enter my number (i have gmd0007997 and gmd0007993) and password and then there was one more field which I think is where I should put a question or something. It does not work, whatever i put in the field it doesn't work.

I know I'm asking a lot now but if no-one knows what I'm doing wrong then would someone please upload the installed files somewhere so I can get them please!
If you do this I will rip the episode and put it online in div-x format for everyone to download or tell you how to rip it yourself!

PLEASE!!! I want it badly.

By the way, I'm not as incompetent as I might sound, this is not my fault but my evil computer, and also, I do believe that I'm the first (and probably only) Swedish Blame!fan ever, yay!

Thanks for reading

Sincerely

For starters, did you download "getmediawithblame" or "blame-addon-something" (can't rememeber the exact names)? I suggest you try with the first one anyway.

Don't you have to log in first/have a password???

I'm doomed!

After spending a couple of hours I got the program to work, but only for a while. The installation was completed, then when I tried to open the program it gave me some error message in Japanese. I've tried a bundle of times to download the program again and installing it but it doesn't work... It might be my computer that's gone nuts or something, but I don't see why it shouldn't work.

Well, if anyone wants to convert the episode in to div-x I'll tell you how to do it:

You're going to need Hypercam (and a div-x codec if you haven't got it)
http://www.geocities.com/bdshoreline/hypercam.zip

1. Open the window where you adjust soundlevels in windows (I don't know what it's called in the english version of windows) and choose that you want to record sound from either Stereo Mixer (if you have a new soundcard this should work) or Wave (if you have a crappy soundcard you should try this)

2. Open HyperCam (and register it with the serial that's included)

3. Go to the AVI file section and choose which codec you want to use (Div-x low motion is what I'd use)

4. Choose framerate (29.97 is standard, use lower if you have a slower computer)

5. Enable recording of sound

6. Go to Other Options and uncheck "record cursor"

7. Open getmedia and play blame, and pause it in the beginning of the movie

8. Go back to HyperCam and to the Screen Area section
and uncheck "show flashing rectangle...", then choose select region

9. Make a rectangular shape covering the window where the movie is being played

10. Press start rec in hyper cam and then press play in getmedia

11. When the movie's finnished you press stop rec. (if you don't get that by yourself)

Troubleshooting

-If the picture in the recorded movie is black or blue only, then you need to disable getmedia to use any hardware acceleration

-If the sound is out of sync you need to download Virtualdub in order to correct this.
1.Open the avi file in virtual dub.
2.Go to the video menu, and select "direct stream copy".
3.Video menu again and choose framerate, and select "change so audio and video duration match"
4.Go to the audio menu and select full processing mode
5.Go to the file menu and select save avi and choose a filename and destination

Good Luck!

If anyone finds this message helpful would you please consider to send me the episode in div-x since I can't get Get Media to work on my computer! I would be eternaly grateful!
I can trade you anything for it, I've got a lot of anime and manga and a fast connection. Please e-mail me if your interested in helping me!

if anybody actually ends up doing this, i'd be willing to host the end product on a ftp, hotline, whatever server. as long as things don't get out of hand..hehe. uh....unless someone else can spare the bandwidth on their webpage or some such....hehe.

I gave a try at ripping the BLAME! short for you (and for me also, as I hate get media) but it didn't work. All I got was 5:14 of black images and static on the sound. I'd love to help, but I don't know how to configure get media to do anything but play the blame movie as it is in japanese.

Ask krum how he took those screencaps, because if you can take screencaps you can record the screen with HyperCam. So he must have found out how to do it.

Thanks anyway for trying!

KRuM got the screencaps by pausing the episode at various places and hitting ALT+Print Screen. I'm sure any keyboard can do that...

Didn't know that you could do that. Well, I do still believe that there is a way to turn off the hardware acceleration. You can do it in realplayer and mediaplayer, and various of other software, so GetMedia shouldn't be exception.

If you try going through the menus it shouldn't be that hard to find. It looks the same in mediaplayer as in realplayer so it should probably look about the same in GetMedia too.
