Missing DDR Extreme US/Dancing Stage Fusion background movies

Hello.

There are some background movies that are exclusive to four songs in the CS releases that neither beware nor the people that ripped background movies from the arcade (AeronPeryton and pkgingo) ever brought to the community. Beware refuses to do it (I tried), and Aeron and Pkgingo have vanished from the internet.

The generic videos are;



Bubble5 (Bubble2 and Tunnel2 hybrid)
Circle12 (orange version of Circle7)
Dragon1 (orange dragon flying through the air movie)
Dragon2 (a blurred guy with a dragon flying around in the distance)
Dragon3 (the dragon fly by the guy and spins)
Taiqi4 (orange mixed version of Taiqi3)

Don't worry about providing subclips for any of the videos, I only need the original 6.



Lady21 (video of a girl fading in a reflective room)
Water4 (Water1 but with a barely noticable, but still there vine in the righthand side)
Wind2 (wind1 but with a moon effect)



Circle13 (blue light circles in a purple background)

(the video is gone but they appear in Rappers' Delight)

Circle14 (brown circles movie vaguely similar to the beginning of Circle7)
Lines6 (red stuff with a blue scanline)
Pentagon2 (a pentagon shaped shaft)

Additionally, can someone rip the visualization effects from MAXIMIZER to help remaster some botched recordings of the background script videos from 2004?



Thank you for your assistance.

Actually the girl that appears in the Theme from Enter the Dragon is a DDR character named Bass. you can't see her That clearly however.

Well, that's actually pretty cool foreshadowing. Bass (as I recall) doesn't appear until DDR Festival. :P

Anyway, my point still stands if 13 videos can still be ripped.

Given that AeronPeryton, pkgingo, and beware have disappeared from Z-i-V, I'm afraid to say that the task of ripping these rare background movies is unachievable. It seems as though we have lost the method these three users had used to rip the movies.

That method wasn't even shared publicly, to begin with.

Indeed we have.

@MadkaT Hey, do you know what videos "pspuka", "pssrha", "pswoma", and "pswomb" are?
MadkaT - 06/22/2017
Where are they from?
Cuzco - 06/22/2017
They're the only ones I haven't found source names for yet.
They show on the DDRMAX/DDRMAX2 discs.
MadkaT - 06/22/2017
I will check in my dumps
I haven't found anything :frowning:
Cuzco - 06/22/2017
Damn.
Thank you anyway.
MadkaT - 06/22/2017
Don't worry, there is not much info about the videos and their original names
Cuzco - 06/22/2017
Is Ultramix the only one you can see the movies on?

what do you mean
the only one that uses the original AC bgvideos, yes
the only one that uses bgvideos, no
MadkaT - 06/22/2017
I have been ripped all the ultramix series videos
So they preserve their original names

I remember you posting a screenshot of like, ring3 (jftrnb.xmv??) in a folder.(edited)

what i need is for someone to rip the data from Disney Channel Edition...
MadkaT - 06/22/2017
Yes, I can rip all the XBOX/XBOX360 series videos
The trouble is in PS2, I have tried, but I haven't found the right codec, like the pictures, konami used custom codecs to encrypt them
MadkaT - 06/22/2017
I've ripped the EX2 videos usin the PCSX2 emulator and some tricks to freeze the menu windows
But I can't in the gameplay screen
There are still objects that I cannot hide
Also for the Disney Channel mix, it is in a different format than the other mixes

Maybe someday Aeron/pkgingo will come back. I talked to beware about it years ago and he said he's not interested because of the whole "console-exclusive" thing. :s

Someday, these rare videos will be ripped. Let's hope for the best...
