Videos of Releases and other ideas

I think a very cool feature for CSDb would be to allow maintainers to add links to YouTube videos created of the release in action. Not everyone has the requisite hardware to run all the releases, and for some getting VICE set up correctly to replicate the intended effect of the release can be a challenge. Being able to link to videos on YouTube would be super awesome when you are just casually browsing the repository of releases.

I think another cool feature for releases would be an NTSC/PAL flag. This would be a searchable field so that you can easily weed out unwanted results from searches.

I'd say:
only add more pictures etc if voting is shut off alltogether.
People judge demos/gfx by screenshots as is already...

@mr.Grumpy: For preservation only. How about tagging system maybe? No? Ah no... of course it's not IStockPhoto...

@mr.Enthusiastic: The current voting system makes no sense anyway so I guess adding more still images wouldn't break it.

I am gonna use the CSDB API (http://noname.c64.org/csdb/webservice/) and create an alternative CSDB – is this allowed? :D

I didn't know about this API. This has potential to allow a CSDb client for the 64. How cool would it be to search for a release from the 64, and then download it directly to the machine?

Posting videos will make people less interested in emulators and the real deal, and most of the watchers will not download the production, and it will not be spread, thus die. Forever. :P

I was thinking....

Maybe it´s a good idea to incorporate an emulator in the CSDb website? That way, people can check Pearls for Pigs ***ONLINE*** or play Last Ninja 2 ***ONLINE***!!!!

Now how cool would that be? ;-)

Whilst your at it, maybe incorporate Timanthes aswell!! And Photoshop...

No no, don´t thank me for my creative thinking: just remember to credit me for the idea!!! xD
