How good is the video compression in vp3.2? For example, how does it compare (bit rate & quality) to mpeg1, mpeg2, Divx, real Video 8+, Windows Media, etc. etc. It being open source is nice and all, but if it can't be reasonably competitive then there isn't much point to it. I just haven't seen anything that compares vp32 to anything else. (Although to be honest, I haven't

i am SURE this is really simple.. and i am SURE i have read this a million times.. but i am not wiring this up in my brain correctly.. if i have a parent class that has fields: Podcasts id title description and a child class like: Episodes id podcast_id title description filename i can get the episode information all day.. but using the "Episode" class, can i access the

I''m having trouble trying to get this to work. How the heck do you get a polymorphic controller to work? Especially integrating it with a view? Let''s say that we have shows, and episodes, then comments. A show has many episodes, an episode has many comments. the route is /shows/1/episodes/1/ Now to add a comment to that episode, how would I do it? Let''s say that the

a couple points before I look at this too hard: "For VP3, since you can't do a constant quality encode" what? that should not be the case. Could be a QT-specific bug. Theora at any rate is certainly capable of doing constant-quality encode. This probably explains your standard deviation complaint -- VP3 is running a rate control alg, where the other codecs are just shooting for

Hello, An old theme just came up on the Wikipedia mailing list again : Wikipedia strongly encourages[1] using theora encoding, strongly enough that I don't think we currently host any other video encodings...[2] however, most users know how to make and edit and play mpegs, and find theora hard to work with. http://mail.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikipedia-l/2005-March/038244.html Perhaps the

Hi, I was just reading on Adobe Flash<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Flash>and the components which make it up: SWF, ActionScript, and FLV. >From what I've read, SVG is competing with SWF as the format of vector graphics in web design, while ActionScript is an ECMAScript like JavaScript. Hence, SVG + Javascript can provide an interactive, animated, open, non-proprietary web

After one day with wmv-Streams there are now also theora and vorbis streams from the 23C3 online: http://events.ccc.de/congress/2006/Streams There are still some problems with it but at the moment it's working. Regards Helmut

Hello. Excuse me in advance for these dumb questions. I used ffmpeg2theora to convert much videos. Now I would cut and/or merge them. How can I do it? Furthermore, in many cases the sound was desynchronized - I converted TS mpegs. I tried to add the sync flag with bad effects. How can I manually delay / anticipate sound track?

Hi, I held an introduction to Creative Commons last week. The Theora-encoded video (and slides) are available at www.romal.de . I had some serious problems encoding to theora. Is there a canonical way to convert mov and/or wmv to Theora ? I fiddled around whith ffmpeg2theora, but always got some out-of-sync-problems with audio and video. cu romal

Hello, I was wondering about the lowpass filter applied at the different quality levels. It seems that the 16kHz cut-off is still there at quality 3. I didn't really abx it, so maybe my mind plays tricks on me. :) Please can someone enlighten me what is used for -q0, -q1 and so on. (lame tells me whats used when encoding tracks) I know I shouldn't judge by bandwidth but I would like to

Hi, I was really interested in the java version of the same since I wanted to use it in my java application in a platform independent way. Anybody who have managed to use the java port to encode wav to ogg, this is only audio, can assist me to solve my problem. I have been looking at the code and the svn but no updates seem to be available. Some guidance on what could be the problem on the source

Hi. In the episode 74 <http://railscasts.com/episodes/74>, Ryan has a model "project" that can have many "tasks", and he uses link_to_function to dynamically add a field in the form for a new Task. In order to do that he created a helper called add_task_link. The code of the method is: # projects_helper.rb def add_task_link(name) link_to_function name do |page|

Hello, You guys might want to join this discussion. (And maybe some others too.) On the WhatWG mailing list, there's been a fury of e-mails about adding a <video> element to HTML5. They're talking about codecs and containers now. It might be helpful to have your representatives there. And help shape things. See ya ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Dave Singer

Dear R Helpers: I have a data set where the unit of observation is country-year. I would like to generate a new data set based on some inclusionary (exclusionary) criteria.
