Hey guys... I did a run yesterday which happens to be a PB.. but sadly the timer didn't split about 15 minutes before the actual end of the run, so I think I'd have to retime that run. (Also, the timer still was running but doesn't stop at the end, sooo is it even necessary to retime? :S) So yeah, well i though, easy, just download the Highlight and edit a timer in with some editing program.. Now I have a freakin headache^^
So first, I'd have Camtasia Studio 7, I downloaded the highlight which happens to be an .flv file which isn't supported..
Alright so I convert it with some program.. kills a ll the quality of the video.
Also adding a timer seems to be not that easy, I though I just could add some kind of stopwatch or what ever, but google tells me I should record a timer and add that video, so I'd have to record a damn 1hr 15 minute video of a timer? Seriously there has to be a better way.. I'd rather do another run than go though that stuff again...
So I guess I'm not the first who had to retime a run, how did you do it?
The video would be here if anyone needs to see http://www.twitch.tv/muxu96/c/4966230 (Also hitbox processes the highlight since yesterday..?... oh my)
Thank you in advance
Cheers :) o/
EDIT: Alright did it now.. was a good way thanks moon! :) Hope this doesn't happen again tho :/

Hum... haven't thought of that^^ Maybe I also could start the timer at 1hr before the splits stopped and if I can get it kinda synchron I stop it after the end?
Don't really know how exact they want it on the leaderboards..
Thanks tho, seems the best way to keep quality and is relatively easy^^
True.. Well maybe it would even by an idea to write some of this down on the submission page so people are clear about this.. Don't know for sure but I think I'm not the only one who didn't know about this :D
The reason I added it is that there's already a section about RTA, which might confuse people (?). Now, I would remove this entire section since it feels pretty obvious, but there's a reason I added it in the first place, so I'm kinda hesitant on doing so.
I'm not sure, I think it's useful for ppl like me who are pretty new and don't know stuff like that.. but maybe I just didn't inform myself enough in the first place^^ Otherwise.. maybe a little Speedrun FAQ for standard knowledge like this would be enough? :)
