16 May '25

forum https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=176091 it says those LUTs should be usable for ffmpeg's lut3d and therefore for CinGG? github (each *.cube can be several mb's big) https://github.com/FranceBB/LinearTransformation author says they were verified on professional equipment... list includes PAL and NTSC variants for rec. 601....

I tried to add AVC-Intra 100 output profiles
by Andrew Randrianasulu 08 May '25

08 May '25

But not sure if I did this correctly. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVC-Intra says for AVC-Intra 100: AVC-Intra 100: nominally 100 Mbit/s, size of each frame is fixed CAVLC entropy coding only. All formats are High 4:2:2 Intra Profile, Level 4.1 4:2:2 chrominance sampling frames are not scaled and yeah, this French-language pdf actually says the same: https://web.archive.org/web/20110720215759/http://www.ficam.fr/upload/docum… 50M 100M Standard MPEG-4 part10 AVC/H.264 Profile High 10 Intra High 4:2:2 Intra Level Level 3.2/4.0 Level 4.1 Resolution 1440x1080 / 960x720 1920x1080 / 1280x720 Sampling 4:2:0 4:2:2 Bit rate 54Mbps 111Mbps Block size Y: 8x8, C: 4x4 Intra Prediction Y: 9mode, C: 4mode MBAFF Yes De-block filter No Slice/frame 10 Entropy coding CABAC CAVLC so, I looked up ffmpeg cmd line https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/3597 ffmpeg -v info -i /mnt-data/backup4/vol0/export/CUHK\ 2014-1/V017b.mov -vcodec libx264 -intra -pix_fmt yuv422p10le -vb 100M -x264opts avcintra-class=100 -x264opts colorprim=bt709 -x264opts transfer=bt709 -x264opts colormatrix=bt709 -threads 4 -acodec copy V017b-ffmpeg-git-avcintra100.mov Huh, said I and entered those params in opts file, actually in two files (mp4 and mov containers) mov libx264 cin_pix_fmt=yuv422p10le flags -global_header keyint_min=0 x264-params=keyint=0:colorprim=bt709:transfer=bt709:colormatrix=bt709 avcintra-class=100 bufsize=100000000 level=4.1 mp4 libx264 cin_pix_fmt=yuv422p10le flags -global_header keyint_min=0 x264-params=keyint=0:colorprim=bt709:transfer=bt709:colormatrix=bt709 avcintra-class=100 bufsize=100000000 level=4.1 both for progressive content, for interlace you must add some more flags: https://lists.ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-user/2017-January/035049.html -flags +ildct+ilme -x264opts interlaced=1 Also, there is still lack of (GUI) user notification if file writing failed due to NO SPACE on device :} FFStream::write_packet: write packet failed. file:/dev/shm/avci_new.mp4 err: На устройстве не осталось свободного места FFStream::encode_frame: encode failed. file: /dev/shm/avci_new.mp4 err: На устройстве не осталось свободного места FFStream::flush failed :file:/dev/shm/avci_new.mp4 err: Операция не позволена Render::render_single: Session finished. ** rendered 273 frames in 85.585 secs, 3.190 fps Render::render_single: Session finished. ** rendered 273 frames in 85.485 secs, 3.194 fps Render::render_single: Session finished. ** rendered 273 frames in 82.176 secs, 3.322 fps Profile sort of assumes you set project to some supported resolution, framerate, etc, otherwise libx264 will fail with console error message..... I found some talk about AVC-Ultra, there even was patch for x264, but it was not merged: https://mailman.videolan.org/pipermail/x264-devel/2015-September/011412.html Also, I think sound must be uncompressed, but I'm not sure.

offtopic: Quantel boxes
by Andrew Randrianasulu 25 Aug '24

25 Aug '24

Because I monitor mame WIP thread I saw some news about Quantel Paintbox emulation in MAME (0) and then I randomly followed some links to other Quantel systems Like HAL (basically like hardware compositor) http://dexterslab2013.blogspot.com/2018/03/quantel-hal-video-compositing-sy… 99 layers of SD images or video, up to 15 min storage on 20 disk array! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4k15hpeGzBA if you have half of hour you can watch this demo from 1997. Biggest thing so far for me? We are free to use old-fashioned optical effects in front of real camera too :) (0) - https://forums.bannister.org/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=120292&page…

New release update
by Phyllis Smith 19 Jul '24

19 Jul '24

October 2022 end of month new release AppImages now available. This includes a fix for a minor ffmpeg 5.1 security flaw that Andrew discovered and made us a patch for. Full release notes at: https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/releasenotes.pdf . ************ October Release Notes update ****************** *Security flaw in FFmpeg 5.1* was discovered and Andrew forwarded the patch for us to use. A *Direct Copy speed-up* has been added for EXR and PPM sequences that Andrew found. Tiny corrections and addition to Cinelerra_factory presets and plugin.opts. Newer versions of Ubuntu require an additional package install for *bld_prepare.sh as Goat found*. The Manual has had another section added, *Alternative Views of Overlay Modes*, which presents a more “real world” usage display of the overlay modes using a color/black & white gradient + video.

bug to feature.

https://www.dirtyfeed.org/2021/11/quantel/ I laughed so hard .... --- <https://twitter.com/randombler> <https://twitter.com/randombler> Alec Cawley <https://twitter.com/randombler> @randombler <https://twitter.com/randombler> В ответ @mumoss <https://twitter.com/mumoss> I was personally responsible for creating that effect. And it was all a mistake. The Mirage stored the shape “map” on a hard disk. And due to a bug in my software, it read a bit of uninitialised disk, which produced that effect. By the next day, it wasn’t a bug, it was a feature. Перевести твит 10:10 PM · 27 нояб. 2021 г. <https://twitter.com/randombler/status/1464672922124095496> --

Fwd: cingg vs gimp 2.10 compositing mode divide
by Andrew Randrianasulu 30 Oct '22

30 Oct '22

but should we blindly follow gimp ? Again, gimp tend to have bigger mode list ) may be right thing to do is leave some of our modes intact (they might be buggy but graphics art can utilize that, too) and add gimp/svg/oldcin compatible modes ? ---------- Forwarded message --------- От: Андрей Рандрианасулу <randrik(a)mail.ru> Date: сб, 29 окт. 2022 г., 18:43 Subject: cingg vs gimp 2.10 compositing mode divide To: randrianasulu <randrianasulu(a)gmail.com> I think you see, we are making black areas where gimp was making white areas... -- Андрей Рандрианасулу
