FranceBB's LUT collection
by Andrew Randrianasulu 17 May '25

17 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.

arm/termux series (possibly broken on x86)

strangely enough, this patch series builds with dv-stuff correctly now.. no build/link/runtime errors.. based on git commit 9d54c23d957

proot on termux
by Andrew Randrianasulu 30 Sep '22

30 Sep '22

I have i386 debian 11 on my arm tablet now, but road to it was somewhat bumpy. debootstrap as provided by termux does not like --foreign option, so I tried modification of scrip commands found at https://github.com/sp4rkie/debian-on-termux/blob/master/debian_on_termux_10… (I have Android 10 tablet) $ debootstrap --variant=minbase --exclude=systemd --arch=i386 bullseye deb_11 but you need to set main repo here or create debootstrap/mirror by hand REPO=http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ unset LD_PRELOAD $ proot -0 -b /dev -b /sys -b /proc -b /system -b /apex --link2symlink -r deb_11/ -q qemu-i386 /bin/bash --login (for some reason my system need /system and /apex added to proot bind directories for qemu to function) this worked but ssl / ca-certificates were not installed, and coreutils for some reason needed re-install by dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archive/pkg.deb also debootstrap/debootstap script had termux pathes in it, so I edited them back for normal Linux/debian pathes after installing /etc/resolv.conf network/apt worked but building man page index was a bit slow.

Mesa3d va-api encoding MR
by Andrew Randrianasulu 27 Sep '22

27 Sep '22

So, few hours ago this merge request for mesa3d surfaced (I think it affects radeonsi AMD cards) --- why: to enhance va video encoding quality how: use va encoding quality_level interface, and provide default value and encoding quality adjustment options, so that users can finetune encoding quality and performance from va quality interface. There are 3 settings added: -- preset modes: speed, balance, quality they are using different encoding strategies -- vbaq modes: vbaq mode is using variance based strategy to improve the subjective image quality -- pre-encoding modes: Using scaled down input image for pre-encoding to have better rate-control reaction and consume more memory in the same time. Only preencoding-4x mode is enabled. --- https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/17994

FFmpeg 5.1 latest version included in August release
by Phyllis Smith 04 Sep '22

04 Sep '22

End of the month August release AppImages are now available for download which have the updated FFmpeg 5.1 version included. See the note below taken from the releasenotes.pdf file. I do not know if there will be any submitted changes next month so if not, there will not be a requirement to create new releases. I am hoping some developer out there will be motivated to add something new or make a change based on one of the requests in the Bug Tracker ! *GIT for Cinelerra-GG has the following changes from 08/01/2022-08/31/2022* FFmpeg has been upgraded to version 5.1 from 4.4 . 10 new Audio plugins included are: F_adecorrelate, F_adynamicequalizer, F_adynamicsmooth, F_afwtdn, F_alatency, F_apsyclip, F_aspectralstats, F_atilt, F_tiltshelf, F_virtualbass 12 new Video plugins includes are: F_blockdetect, F_blurdetect, F_colorchart, F_colorspectrum, F_grayworld, F_hsvhold, F_hsvkey, F_latency, F_pixelize, F_scharr, F_siti Andrew-R updated all of the ffmpeg-4.4 patches to ffmpeg-5.1. Andrea updated the Plugins text info and opts as well as updated the Plugins section in the manual. 17 new video render formats have been provided by Andrew for some infrequently used options so that there is almost a complete set. Included are: apng.apng, avif.avif avrp.qt, avui.qt, ayuv.qt, cljr.qt, r10k.qt, rpza.qt, v408.qt, y41p.qt, yuv4.qt ffvhuff.mov, flashsv1.flv, flashsv2.flv pfm.pfm, phm.phm, qoi.qoi – single frame

Deleting old libs from thirdparty/src
by Andrew Randrianasulu 28 Aug '22

28 Aug '22

If new libs work good enough ... /cinelerra-5.1/thirdparty/src/tiff-4.1.0.tar.xz /cinelerra-5.1/thirdparty/src/libvpx-1.11.0.tar.xz /cinelerra-5.1/thirdparty/src/libogg-1.3.4.tar.xz /cinelerra-5.1/thirdparty/src/libjpeg-turbo-2.1.0.tar.gz /cinelerra-5.1/thirdparty/src/libaom-v3.2.0.tar.xz And associated patches ... Also, I think we can remove old ffmpeg.git patches, and replace them with renamed copies of ffmpeg-5.1 patches .... It will work hopefully until some break in ffmpeg :)

Few new image profiles
by Andrew Randrianasulu 27 Aug '22

27 Aug '22

While I can't figure out why animated png fails ... Also, alias PIX does not work. I used ' thirdparty/ffmpeg-5.1/ffmpeg -encoders' output to see if there any uncovered codec, so I added few uncompressed video packers too ... May be it need range of frames and not just one? (I used single-frame rendering) Put those in ffmpeg/video folder (for source tree based single user build it will be in bin subfolder, but you can just put them in cinelerra-5.1/ffmpeg folder and they will be installed hopefully ...)

Kdenlive 22.08
by Andrew Randrianasulu 23 Aug '22

23 Aug '22

https://kdenlive.org/en/2022/08/kdenlive-22-08-released/ It now integrates with (unknown for me) vector animation editor, can load few more image and subtitle formats, might be faster due to parallelized processing and fixed vaapi/nvenc proxy clip creation.... Also bugfixes for transitions!
