    Ever since hearing these songs, I've had the vision of some AMVs in my head - some KH AMVs - that have been stuck in my head for two years. Now, I have the tools necessary to bring these visions to life, and I'm going around trying to find the necessary raw materials to make these videos.

    Unfortunately, unlike previously thought, KH-Vids.net just doesn't cut it.

    KH-Vids.net has a VERY good collection of Re:CoM and Re:RR Eng Dub cutscenes in the archive, but those are about the ONLY decent quality videos.

    I've found cutscenes from Kingdom Hearts 2, but I'm still lacking decent HQ cutscenes of Kingdom Hearts. Unfortunately, the KH2 archives I've found don't include battle videos, so I'm also looking for good quality videos of KH2 Boss Battles. (Specifically, the fights with Organization XIII - sadly, KH-Vids failed more miserably than usual here, as the only OrgXIII fight that even HAD download links were the fight segments against Xemnas.)


    Anyone know where I could find high-quality cutscenes from Kindom Hearts (1 NOT 2) and high-quality Org. XIII battles from KH2? Thanks in advance.

    The thing about high quality videos from the games is that to get really nice videos, you have to rip them directly from the game disc. With the proper tools this isn't too difficult a task (or so I've heard), and for many games it works great. But with Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2, the cutscenes are live action. They change depending on your keyblade, if you've got the treasure chests in that area, your drive form, etc. Therefore we have to use capture cards to get them.

    Re:Chain of Memories wasn't this way because you're always using the same weapon, your outfit never changes, and you're almost always in the same area when the cutscene plays (with the exemption of Destiny Islands and the scenes involving Organization XIII members in the rooms they hideout in). That's why they have better quality.

    That's at least my understanding of it, I haven't done video editing in years and I'm not a techie.

    But when I need images or I'm capturing images from cutscenes, I like having things with better quality than KH-Vids I go here. This stuff was captured by the forum member Crisp, and he got them directly from the game disc if I remember correctly.

    Edit: Oh, and the muffin man, your link isn't working. :] The one Shrooms posted has really nice Kingdom Hearts II scenes but imo the Kingdom Hearts I ones aren't that great, but whatever works for you is good. The download is going to take a while though, 'cause like they said it's 11GB and there's only 13 seeders.

    Well, I've actually found this pretty good site in my searches last night: http://kh13.com/

    The Japanese KH cutscenes seem to be good high-quality; the only quality loss seems to be some kind of delay in the capturing of the information being displayed on the screen. (Though I can tell there is loss, I don't suspect it will be noticeable in the end.)

    However, KH13 doesn't seem to have any Boss Battle videos for KH2. :( Does the torrent link contain any boss battles? (I'll probably try to download it and seed it later just to get another reliable seed - I've got more than enough room for a few extra 11 GBs; the real pain will be downloading that entire torrent to then act as a seeder.)

    EDIT: I think I *may* just be needing that torrent after all - it seems that from the KH2 videos I found, a very important slice of cutscene is corrupt - the section entitled "Axel's Last Stand" D:

    Yep. Looks like that torrent doesn't have any boss fights - it seems to be the same one I found for KH2 though, so it'll be nice to *hopefully* get some files which were corrupt in the .zips I downloaded.

    Anyone got any idea on those boss battles, though?
