Sox and mplex
by Andrew Randrianasulu 21 Jan '24

Canonical way to use mplex with lpcm sound seems to involve sox https://marc.info/?l=mjpeg-users&m=112004582102258&w=2 ==== 1. sox NAME.wav -t raw -x -s -w -c2 -r48000 NAME.lpcm 2. mplex -S 0 -f 8 -V -o NAME.mpg NAME.lpcm NAME.m2v === I also found at mjpeg-users list this utility that makes wavs into lpcm http://dvd-audio.sourceforge.net/wav2lpcm.tar.gz only 48/96 khz, 16/24bits stereo wavs are supported Also, this little table suggest there IS dynamic range bit in lpcm header https://dvd.sourceforge.net/dvdinfo/lpcm.html dynamic_range X 3 X High 3 bits of byte. dynamic_range Y 5 Y Lower 5 bits of byte linear gain = 2^(4-(X+(Y/30))) in dB gain = 24.082 - 6.0206 X - 0.2007 Y Also, according to this post 24-bit lpcm worked around mjpegtools-1.8.0 release: https://marc.info/?l=mjpeg-users&m=112912922124144&w=2 all this quite theoretical at this point, not tried it yet.

SD 16:9 missing among CinGG BD-Render Video Formats
by Terje J. Hanssen 19 Jan '24

19 Jan '24

According to wikipedia, 16:9 SD video formats are also valid BD-Video formats https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blu-ray#Video SD 720 × 480 29.97i 4:3 or 16:9[d] (anamorhic) 720 × 576 25i 4:3 or 16:9[d] The Create BD Format contains 720 x 576/ 25i/p and 720 x 480/ 29.97i/p Please verify if this these are SD 4:3 only? The wikipedia table lists only SD interlaced as valid SD BD-Video format If so, SD 16:9 interlaced are missing, while SD progressive are invalid?

according to my grep-fu this define not used anywhere, probably remnant from some cinelerra-cv era experiments in using ffmpeg for dv (today we can do the same directly) grep DV_USE_FFMPEG cinelerra/* grep: cinelerra/data: Это каталог cinelerra/filedv.h:#ifdef DV_USE_FFMPEG grep: cinelerra/i686: Это каталог grep: cinelerra/tests: Это каталог

mpeg2 hdv profile based on MLT profile
by Andrew Randrianasulu 16 Jan '24

16 Jan '24

attached just put where all other cinelerra-gg's video profiles live ... note, this is for progressive 25f 1080p HDV if you have mlt installed you can inspect other files usually in /usr/share/mlt-7/presets/consumer/avformat/hdv_* those profiles does not seem to carry interlacing info but I hope we for now carry it correctly ....

Anamorphic 16:9 SD Bluray
by Andrew Randrianasulu 16 Jan '24

16 Jan '24

so, it seems aspect_ratio not communicated currently correctly for this case but you can manually set aspect for ffmpeg video format to -> 1.77778/(720/576) = 1.42222 or SAR= DAR/PAR because ffmpeg really assumes we set SAR ! put aspect=1.42222 in additional codec options edit window. I'll think about how to automate it ....
