[VEG] Finnish Grand Prix Helsinki / Ropecon - 27th July 2019

Direct video feed is now live at

Youtube claims this video is 10h:27m:49s on the Ropecon video page, but will only play the last four hours.
What gives?
edit: weird, it suddenly started working as expected.
Youtube magic I'm not considering for really long videos?

I noticed the same weirdness last night when I was trying to look for the feature matches of rounds 1-2.
I think the issue is/was that this wasn't a video as such but a livestream that at some point gets archived into a video, and some weirdness happens when its going through that transitioning period.

I know there are plenty of oddities with videos that have few views (like the 301 limit).
My guess is YouTube wants to preserve server load by not offering up that much data before they have to.

Either way, great footage! I hope more tournaments are streamed in the future. It should help grow the community for VtES.

It was a nice, snookery feel to the stream. And by snookery, I mean the fact that once you have a handle on the game, the game (and tabletalk) speaks for itself really nicely. Much like snooker.

Good cameras. Audio could've been bit louder.
All in all, 5/5 experience. Grats on Martin for the win!

I agree, the audio had a few issues.
A lot of background-noise and commentators being at the same volume as the players made it hard to hear at times. Nothing huge.
