NAB is by far the best show to sperg out at because you can go and just gently caress with all of the cutting edge A/V stuff that's super-expensive and would never be seen outside of a profesisonal environment. And then you can go out to the sat pavillion and get vendors to burn $50 in sat time on you just as a demo as long as you don't stand in front of the feed horn.

The audio guys have tons of dongles. The video software hasn't gotten that crazy yet.

Also, lol yeah i'm going to use Megui, need those scaling methods in AVISYNTH. Last I checked, Squeeze still only has bilinear scaling.

also, x264 is way better at making your files small compared to MainConcept

Its for a visually lossless master to play back on a PS3 in a theater, and to serve as an archive that can play across our network.

Nope it chokes on level 4.1 avc compliant files, just like macbook pros. Thats why the max bitrate is just shy of 40mbps as it craps out as soon as it spikes above 42ish

they say you cant see a difference with CRF 21 or lower buuuuuttt, I see it when there is high grain, or lots of fast moving stuff.

i see it.

i see it forever...

Also I wonder if they run these tests on uncompressed source and not just some already poorly compressed mainconcept encoded .mts

i've always wondered how the hell some TV DVD's, particularly older stuff like X-Files and Star Trek TNG, are so terrible at playing on devices, including the PC. the discs either don't read at all or they stop halfway through. i suppose the answer would be terrible dvd authoring, but I wonder how you could even screw that up in the first place. the only device I own which can reliably play those kind of DVDs is the PS3.

ive had trouble when trying to make those vcd things

1st season of family guy downloaded and you could fit 3xeps (about 200mb ea) on a cd with the vcd option which gave it closer to 800mb of data coz there was less checksumming or something so more room for bits


itd play back on dvd players, but usually no fast foward or rewind, you could skip to next file but itd also play back a bit jittery at times

Well yeah mode2/xa has no error correction because it assumes it will be in the content like in the mpeg1 stream on vcd
