Got SSA to work on Windows 7 64-bit

http://www.multiupload.com/8ZN8P4D09V

For some reason I needed a friend to send me his installed copy rared up. It works if I just unrar it, but it stops working when I move it to my Program Files (x86) folder. Weird! Anyway, that's how I did my work around to get it working.

And people have been asking why I want to keep using this program despite Aegisub. It's because I like SSA better for translating. It has better shortcuts for that purpose that don't exist in Aegisub as far as I know. Different programs for different purposes.

Substation Alpha on Windows 7 64-bit?

Anyone know if it's possible? I found the installer that lets you install it on 64-bit Windows 7, but when I run it it just hangs at the splash window. E-mail or PM me on the forums if you've got a solution. Thanks!

Really? Why did it take this long for Chalice to be added to Ganbaride?

About #TV-Nihon

Oh, one more thing (about OOO 26 and Gokai 5)

I forgot to mention that last week's episodes were the first ones that aired after they skipped a week for the earthquake and tsunami recovery. So in the episodes there was a frame around it where there was disaster information being displayed. So after every commercial break it'll start with the video in full frame, then the borders will appear around it, like this:

Earthquake pic

Our encoders worked really hard to eliminate the border so that you can enjoy the full video the way you usually would. But a side effect of this is that when the border is appearing, the screen will look jittery. This is just a side effect of the video zoom out, and there's nothing we can do about it. Maybe we'll rerelease it from the Blu-Rays when they come out

Diana Wynne Jones, author of Howl's Moving Castle, passes away

Howl's Moving Castle

This is pretty unfortuante, I really enjoyed her writing. In case some of you didn't know, the Ghibli anime Howl's Moving Castle was based on a British writer. I highly recommend reading the book if you enjoyed the anime, since it makes more sense and is just overall a lot better than the movie (Don't get me wrong, I love the movie too).

Howl's Moving Castle was also followed by two indirect sequels that take place in the world. Castle in the Air and House of Many Ways. I highly recommend that people check them out. You can probably find them at your local library.

Edit: Shadowneko has set up a forum thread about the matter

Kamen Rider IXA released

Kiva

So someone took the fansubs that we put out there with no strings attached, and cut them up to make a Kamen Rider show that has no present day stuff. This is infuriating!

No wait, I mean, this is hilarious. Good job to that guy!

Server Maintenance

Over the next week, I will be upgrading and moving around various things on the server, so the website may go down unexpectedly for a few minutes or so at times.  I will try to keep the downtime to a minimum and I will do upgrades that noticeably affect the website early in the morning (roughly 2-3 AM CDT (GMT - 5?)). 

As with the forums, they will be going down for maintenance between 2-3 AM CDT on Sunday, March 27 for anywhere up to an hour or two depending on how well things go.

Everything you read is true

Everything you read is a lie

Yes, they did air OOO and Gokaiger this week

Yup, they're back. But let's just keep in mind that it's still a country in recovery (For example, they still had five aftershocks in the last six hours). Also, some other fansubbing things might be affected, like Amazon Japan had to delay shipping my Precure Movie because of the damage to their shipping node.

But let's try to keep thinigs in perspective. Sure, it's an inconvenience for us, but what they're going through is really terrible. I couldn't begin to imagine how I'd cope if I were in one of the affected areas right now, y'know? If stuff gets delayed or they need to cancel some things, let's show some understanding for what they're going through.

On our part, I think the best thing we can do is to just not take the good things we have in life for granted. That stuff won't always be there, after all.

An art game for the Kamen Rider W Net Movies

W

So Cheetah and SilentWolfDog had a fun idea for the Net movies. In one segment, the actors draw something from memory and they have a contest to see who does the best (and worst) job. SilentWolfDog took a hand at it, and you guys can too.

So the rules are simple. Just draw the thing from your memory. Don't look it up, cause that'd be cheating. When we release the Net movies, just post the thumbnail and link to your picture in that thread. It'll just be for fun to see how well people do.

The drawing subjects are: [Money Dopant, Gene Dopant, Revolgarry, W CyloneJokerXtreme, Terror Dopant]

IRC chan

Just a reminder that we don't allow Guest or default Mib_12345 type names in the IRC channel. Pick a real nick before joining.

While I'm at it, try not to use colored text since you can never tell what background color someone is using. And it's an English language channel, so don't have conversations in another language while there. Thanks

Spot the girl

So we were playing a game in the channel. The game is, spot the girl among a bunch of Final Fantasy guys. It basically took 12 minutes for the channel to guess it. Good luck, you guys are going to need it. If you know the answer already from seeing this before, don't give it away. Cause that's just lame. It's more fun to see people fail at it
