Welcome to the next exciting Episode of Let's Play Final Fantasy II. In this episode we continue the failure quest that is the search for Firion's pants. But instead of talking about this in the destription I'll tackle the far more interesting topic of how I almost lost this video:

You see, my recording program sequentially records the video as it goes along, as well as doing much of the encoding. What it does NOT do while recording is indexing, and most players and editors, as it turns out, will not play an uindexed .avi. It is also worth noting that if you close the program while recording (or immediately after for a really long video), it will not index the video before shutting down.

I think you can see where I'm going with this.

To make matters more annoying, I ALSO forgot to save before shutting down, dropping me off just outside of the Cave of Mythril (Not actual Name) in terms of progress, terminating about 30 minutes of gameplay.

I've just got to say thank the Matrix for VirtualDub, as in addition to being great for fixing desyncing problems in Game-Audio, it also can re-index a damaged .avi.

Anyway, you'd better Enjoy this one!

...Because it nearly didn't happen.
