IDK how people can stand borderless monitors. Visual separation to reduce eye strain? Nah, who wants that?

Plorkyeran posted:what do border on monitors have to do with eye strain the border/bezel provides visual separation from the monitor's surroundings and whatever is behind it. ideally, the bezel should be matte black since your eye is drawn to lighter colors, and you don't want the bezel to compete with what's on screen.

pagancow posted:mjpeg gon give it to ya. COME ON somebody else did something similar a few years ago, but was trying to sell their new JPEG compressor as a standalone app. libjpeg, which is what literally every program and operating system uses for JPEG support, was written in the early-mid 90s, and there have been advances in image processing etc since then. google's new encoder is just using a newer method to determine what visual information to keep vs what to throw away.

OR the reason most HDR stuff looks oversaturated is because they crank the contrast and saturation when re"mastering" the HDR version because more contrast + more saturation = better, right?
|
# ¿ Aug 1, 2017 01:37 |

new movies might look good in hdr if mastered properly using a non-retarded standard that anyone bothers to fully and correctly implement, but existing stuff is just gonna use the existing masters but have the contrast, brightness, and saturation cranked up, whether it looks good or was the original intent or not.

who cares if it makes the black and dark areas of the picture washed out and milky, we want BRIGHTER lol because movies don't have rich, contrasty shadows anymore anyway. big budget movies use that awful, low-contrast, straight-down, overhead "overcast" soft lighting that still somehow looks overlit, so they don't have to work as hard to match the CG to the live action

meh I got the impression at the time that people in those days were doing it to ~Rebel Against The Hollywood System~. almost like a Dogme 95 thing but video instead of 35mm film. circa 2005 i went to a film festival where the head guy was all “We’ve got people sending in submissions shot on DIGITAL VIDEO!” like it was some big DiGiTaL ReVoLuTiOn thing, and not because it was cheaper and because a lot of newbie independents were lazy babies that whined shooting on film was So HardTM. there were a bunch of wannabes around that time who called themselves poo poo like Digital Filmmakers because they were totally Rebels and Revolutionaries and not just idiots without the budget to afford 35mm. IIRC and IMHO digital movie cameras didn’t start to not suck until they started making them try to be more than just high end video cameras. which started happening around the time the Panavision Genesis, Red One, etc. started to get on the scene.

digital video existed but it was really expensive and still looked worse than 16mm film. a digital video camera that allowed the same control over the image as a movie camera (manual focus, swappable lenses, manual exposure, etc) was way more expensive than renting a 16mm film camera and still looked worse. but none of these students were complaining about any of that. just that film was “too hard.”

George Lucas reportedly was booed at a DGA screening of EP1, after he said a lot of it was intentionally shot ever so slightly out of focus because he was already planning to shoot EP2 digitally & didn’t want it to look worse than EP1 in terms of resolution and detail. they didn’t go to shooting full digital until EP2, in 2002.

pagancow posted:yes but the reels were transferred to hdcam sr and those are the official masters. aside from a few special venues, EP1 was shown at all theaters as a 35mm film print. quote:Lucas was right that 1080p was better than film because a completely optical workflow for film means you get to barely see 800ish lines of resolution during projection with the best optical practices. what non-george-lucas source are you basing that on? if you’re counting “lines” as a light-dark cycle, like some people do/did when talking about film resolution, then 1080p only has 540 “lines” of resolution. quote:shooting 1080 and digitally projecting digital 1080 gives you 1080 lines. almost no theaters had digital projectors in 2002. EP2 was shown in most theaters on 35mm film prints made from the digital master. I remember reading the specs for a then-high-end digital cinema projector and IIRC its resolution was something like 1024x1024. a few people who’d gone out of their way to find a theater that was showing EP2 digitally said they could see the pixels because the projector didn’t have enough resolution.

Ocrassus posted:what’s the difference? make record louder to sell records, make tvs more ‘colourful’ to sell tvs. the loudness war was as much about dumbshit bands wanting their music to sound on the CD the same as on the radio as anything else IIRC. more loudness didn’t mean more sales (for the music). with motion interpolation and oversaturation introduced by your TV, you can just turn it off or get a better TV. the movie isn’t mastered that way. whereas with audio and the loudness war, if you cared about quality at all, welp, too bad, that’s how the CD was and probably how it was mastered. for audio, the equivalent of motion smoothing and oversaturation would be systems coming with lovely default EQ presets.

yes, I know that bayer patterns are a thing we have to live with and that they’re fine Most of the Time. but it seems that somebody would’ve put something like a foveon sensor in a digital cinema camera by now and at least tried to market it to VFX studios or whoever based on the increased color resolution, though.
