Mirillis in Action! - Updates, Sweepstakes, new Video of the Week.

Hello Dear Fans,

few things happened since our last entry. And we promised to keep you updated as fast as we can. So here's some info you should know or you already know if you follow us on twitter or you are a fan on our facebook page.

First of all we released a minor update for Splash PRO and Splash PRO EX includes MKV stability fix, Japanese user manual added and some Japanese translation improvements. You can download newest version from below:

• Splash PRO EX 1.12.2 - http://mirillis.com/en/products/splashexport.html
• Splash PRO 1.12.2 - http://mirillis.com/en/products/splashpro.html
  

Or if you have enabled "Check for updates" in your "General Settings" you should already get a message that new version is available for download and will be ready to install after download is finished. All upgrades are free and there's absolutely no charge for them. Please have in mind that this only a minor update, we are planning a major soon to fix other things that bother you. If you have any suggestions what we should change in next update feel free to contact us via support@mirillis.com.

Second of all, and this is a great news if you have not already purchased Action! - probably the most advanced desktop and gameplay recording software. We started on our Facebook page a sweepstakes. Each Saturday we are giving away one Action! activation key for Home use.

The way to win Action! key is really easy. Go to our Facebook page and click on the Sweepstakes icon or directly click this link: Sweepstakes page. Like our page (if you haven't already), fill out the form and press Submit button. Voila! You have entered our weekly sweepstakes.
The Sweepstakes begins on each Saturday of each month at 12:00:01 AM GMT+1 and ends on the next Friday at 11:59:59 PM GMT+1

Don't worry if you missed or didn't win in the first Sweepstakes. You have always a chance to win in next one, but to increase your chance of winning in our weekly contest invite your friends to the game. The more the merrier. For each friend who you refer and will like our page and enter the Sweepstakes you will get one extra point in our Sweepstakes which increase your chance to win Action! activation key.

Already got Action! ? That's great, but wouldn't it be better if your friends could also record their gameplays and desktops? Let them know about our Sweepstakes!

The last thing I wan't to mention is that we selected next Video of the Week in our weekly contest. This VoTW goes to cerberiuse and his video from Sniper Elite where you can watch the way bullet goes from the rifle through the body. Enjoy.

As always we mention. Everyone can take part in our weekly contest. All you need to do is record your video with Action! software, properly tag it so we can easily spot it and highlight it. You can also send it to us via mirillis@mirillis.com.

See you in Action!

Mirillis Team.

Long time no see.

Hello Dear Fans!

"Long time no see" - British would say. It's been almost a month since our last entry. Here's the latest update and everything you probably know if you are our fan on facebook or follow us on twitter. If you are not, go and become one fast after reading this entry :)

This entry is about few things. First and most important of all is that we launched a Japanese version of our website. You can view it here www.mirillis.jp. With this launch, our support is now also available in Japanese language but only through the website www.mirillis.jp. The usual e-mail support@mirillis.com is still only in english.

Another sundays behind us and another Video of The Week are selected for our weekly cycle. Since we couldn't reach a contact with the authors we skipped part where we quote them about their experience with Action! software.

As the fifth Video of the Week, we have selected video recorded with Action! by aknakukac96. It's a gameplay from the new Angry Birds: Space Edition. His PC specification while recording the video wasPNY 9800GT @650/950Mhz - Intel E2160 @2.8GHZ - 3GB DDR2 RAM - Asrock P5B-DE Motherboard - Logitech Cillstream gamepad. Enjoy the video.

Sixth Video of the Week really impressed us. Bartosz222 did a really good job making this clip. Here's the video he made:

Latest video, fresh from this Sunday is a bit trick. You can guess it's either real life or Crysis game. The gaming future looks really bright with such a detailed graphics and models. We are looking forward to the next generation games. All credits for this video goes to its maker Barsathebest.

As you probably know, everyone can take part in our weekly contest. All you need to do is record your video with Action! software, properly tag it so we can easily spot it and highlight it. You can also send it to us via mirillis@mirillis.com.

Video of the Week #4

Hello everyone!

As you probably know, few weeks ago we started a new cycle called Video of the Week on our Facebook page. Every Sunday we pick one video from youtube or sent by our users to us. This week we found a video that make our crew laugh a bit :) All credits go to Wouter and his video catching bug in Battlefield 3. Here's what he said about that bug "I was minding my own business, when suddenly my left wheel hit the ocean and I started bouncing! It was like the ocean was playing badminton, and I was the shuttle :D I managed to capture the final moments :)"

Under the video we present you what Wouter told us about his experience with Action!

Hi!
First of all: I'm a big fan of your products, as I have bought every single one of them :)
One of the main reasons I use Action to record video's is that it hardly has any impact on my computer. With other recording tools the framerate is slown down noticeably even with a nice intel sandy bridge 2600k cpu. 

I usually record with 30fps in Action because the files remain a descent size that way. I do have a 2TB drive, but this way I can record a lot :)The resolution I record is 1920x1200, the full resolution of my monitor. To send the movie to youtube I used the build in youtube (HD) tool in Action. I selected the high quality setting and used the highest mbit/s (7 I believe).

At the moment I might have a sandy bridge and 16GB of ram, but my videocard is still an nVidia gtx260. I'm looking for an upgrade, perhaps the new GTX680. It's just that I'd rather have the GK110 chip instead of the GK104 in this card. 

Because I still have a gtx260 I have Battlefield 3 running on low settings. I manage to reach 60fps easily, and I like to keep it that way: I rather have a high fps than fancy graphics with low fps. 

Thanks for choosing my video!Wouter

Hello again,

Another Sunday is behind us and another Video of the Week has been chosen on our Facebook page. This time it's a gameplay from first mission perspective in Need For Speed: The Run recorded by blueburnHD with Action! software.

Windows ® 7 Home Premium - 64 bit.
Intel ® Core ™ i7 - 2600 (3.3 GHz).

We switched to Facebook Timeline for Pages.

Hello fans.

At the end of February Facebook launched Timeline for Pages. It didn't take long to see how much potential it gives for corporate commercial brands and companies like ours. So we didn't hesitate for a long time and decided to follow the trends. Our Facebook Page is now adapted to new Facebook look, which will be mandatory for each page on march 30th. We decided to switch it in advance because of our fans. We wanted to give you opportunity to adjust to our new look earlier than March 30th. Additionally, together with the new Facebook Timeline start, we launched two dedicated tabs for our page.

First one, green icon with white play button, is the Video Tutorials tab where you can find all the tutorials made by Mirillis Team. This is still work in progress, but currently you can watch two basic tutorials for Action! First is Mirillis Action! basics - about HUD in desktop recording mode where you can learn how to setup your HUD and configure all the settings that goes on with it. On the second video Mirillis Action! basics - games, desktop and desktop region recording overview you can learn all about Action! basics such as setting up desktop region recording and learning about three different recording modes.

Second tab called Support Desk is dedicated for our users who find troubles while using our software. Clicking on blue icon will open a Facebook tab with our support form where you can describe your problem and send a ticket to our support staff who will contact you with solution to fix your problem.

We think that these two are the most important for our fans and should be highlighted as first two. The rest tabs you can view by rolling up the menu, simply click the arrow down right from the blue Support Desk tab.

So as you can see, we are changing. We h ope that these changes will receive a positive feedback from our fans, because you're are important to us. We are always open for suggestions, so do not hesitate to contact us.
