These may be temporarily going down in a few days
Apparently the host I'm using doesn't allow you to host videos for some fucktarded reason, so most likely I'll move these videos over to 4x4beat.com. This will take a few days so be patient while I move these over.
IIDX BGA Archive
There's not any actual site, but there you have it. It should be easy enough to navigate.
Each video is 100% untouched from when it's been ripped to ensure the highest possible quality for each video. Also, no audio is included with any of the videos.
Under Progress.xlsx, you'll find a master list of games that have their videos ripped, as well as which game each video on the site comes from and some other information that's more for my benefit to make updating easier.
There are a few videos missing, but I wouldn't hold my breath for them, because they're mostly substream/2nd/3rd videos that were never on a CS version and it seems very unlikely that I'll ever come across a substream/2nd/3rd AC video CD in the near future
One other little notice, the LR2 video tutorial says to resize the videos to 256x256. This is the native resolution LR2 uses for videos, but if you want to use the videos for other purposes, the actual aspect ratio is the extremely arbitrary 203:208.
Super-special thanks to SaxxonPike for his BeMedia Suite, especially the riplist function that made this process a whole lot easier for me
How to add videos in Lunatic Rave 2
Unfortunately, it's not a quick or easy process, involving not only cropping/resizing the videos, but also adding them to the BME files. So don't think you can just grab all the videos and everything will work automagically, you'll have to put some work into it.
Firstly - you'll need
VirtualDubMod
After that, the process is basically the same for every video, with three exceptions.
The following videos have a slightly different processes that are detailed at the bottom of this post: Alternate instructions #1:

1. Open the video file in VirtualDubMod, then go to Video > Filters
2. If the video has any extra black space around the edges, first we have to crop that out. Click Add... and choose "null transform". Highlight the null transform filter on the list, and click Cropping...
3. Move the slider along the bottom until you get to a frame where you can clearly see the black borders. Then, adjust the offsets until the video fits perfectly in the frame.
If you're dealing with a video that has empty space on the lower left and lower right corners, make sure not to crop those out.
If your video is letterboxed inside of the actual IIDX video, make sure you don't crop off any more than you need.
If your video has four smaller versions of itself in the left and right borders, make sure to crop those out as well.
Once you're all set with cropping, click OK.
4. Now we need to resize the video to the correct aspect ratio used by LR2. Click Add... and choose "resize". Resize the video to 256x256. If you want, change the filter mode from "nearest neighbor" to "Lanczos3" for a slightly better quality image, although you really won't be resizing enough for it to make a huge difference. Once you're all set with resizing, click OK, then click OK again to get out of the Filters menu.
5. Play with the slider at the bottom a bit to make sure your new video looks alright. Once you're satisfied, go to File > Save As... At the bottom of the Save As dialog, in the Video frame, click the Change button.
This is very important, you DO NOT want to save your file as an uncompressed AVI!!! If you have the hard drive space, I suggest picking a lossless codec, otherwise, go with a decent lossy codec. Once you've picked your codec, go ahead and save your file!
6. I highly suggest moving your newly-converted video into the same folder as your BME files for the song. Now we have to add a command to each BME file telling it to play the video. Open the BME file in Notepad, and add the following lines somewhere in the file (I suggest below the #WAV tags):
Code:
#BMP01 video.avi
#00004:01
Obviously, replace the name of the AVI file with the video you're using. Most of the time the video starts on the first beat, but you may have to play with it if it's off. To change which measure the video starts on, change the #000 to a higher number (it starts at measure #000 and supports up to measure #999)
Make sure you add those lines to every BME file in the folder!!!
8. Time to test it out! Fire up LR2 and play the song to make sure the video came out OK.

These three videos were taken from 6th Style CS and were designed for its music video mode, therefore the videos are in the wrong aspect ratio and we need to do this a little differently.
1. Open the video file in VirtualDubMod, then go to Video > Filters
2. Click Add... and choose "null transform". Highlight the null transform filter on the list, and click Cropping... Set the offsets as follows:
X1 - 40
X2 - 39
Y1 - 2
Y2 - 4
2. Now we need to resize the video to the correct aspect ratio used by LR2. Click Add... and choose "resize". Resize the video to 256x256.
