similar to: NHW Project - some update

Hello, Again I thank very much the Xiph forum members for their help and consideration for the NHW Project, really.I also realize I was a little unfair with Monty as just saying that Xiph.org can totally give some web space to document and advertise the NHW Project is already a very big help, it gives credit to the project,...! But the reality is that the NHW Project is a nearly dead project...

I think Apple is somehow "attached" to the MPEG group. They control the "pools" too. Your codec sounds great. Google could -- if they wanted to -- use it but they have Web^M and webP. Look to Asia. Asus has just launched a new phone. ?? On Mon, Jul 9, 2018, 3:14 PM Raphael Canut <nhwcodec at gmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > I don't have advanced on the NHW

Hello Spork, Thank you very much for your great help! So ok, let's create a website for the NHW Project! Anyone who wants to help is very welcome! Do you want we start first with wix.com or rather from nearly scratch? I think from scratch would be better as we can really do what we want, but it will be a lot and lot more difficult to make... -I will send you a private email for the USB

Hello Spork, > If you want though, when I find some time, I can work on supporting a better command line parsing. Yes that would be great as my command line parsing is not good at all. > Does your codec compile under Linux? If not, that's something I can try to work on as well. I never tested my codec under Linux )-:, and so it would be also great to compile it under Linux.I think

Hello Ken, Many thanks for your reply! Yes, I very need to adapt the NHW codec to any image size.But actually it is the least interesting part, I don't think that it is that difficult (compared to creating high compression settings) but it is very boring, annoying... Really not the part that I prefer... For now, as I am jobless, my aim is to have "pleasure" with the NHW Project and

Hello, I don't have advanced on the NHW Project this past month, but I have definitely validated its characteristics and this new version. The NHW Codec preserves or enhances image neatness and sharpness, which translates that on good quality images the NHW Codec is globally better than HEVC, and on degraded (with blur, artifacts) images it is worse than HEVC because it lacks of precision. I

Hello, Just a quick note, some people told me in the past that I must adapt NHW to any image size else nobody will consider and use it.That's certainly right, but again I am working on NHW on my spare time and this task is too exhausting for me.Also, I feel now that it is useless, as I have read that in the very next months, the great AVIF and JPEG XL will be definitely adopted everywhere on

> How about macOS? Can you give us a build. I don't have a macOS environment so I won't be able to give you a build.But it would be also great to have a macOS version.I think now that many bugs have been corrected, and that the NHW Project can compile ok under clang and run ok on macOS. If a forum member, that runs macOS, could give us a build and first let us know if the code is ok,

Great!!! Do not hesitate to let me know if it works ok for you! Cheers, Raphael 2018-04-16 22:59 GMT+02:00 David Willmore <davidwillmore at gmail.com>: > That's great news!

Hello, I have tried to improve -l7 quality setting these last days without luck... I find that -l7 quality setting is not totally validated, could be better.For -l8 and very high compression, it is very difficult.I would like to do as HEVC that it is to say "cleanly" wash out the details and "neatly" preserve the contours, edges... which gives for me the best resutls at very

Also, don't forget the option I gave you Ralph, where you can have access to one of my VPSes. We can create a subdomain for free, but if you want something like nhw.com, you'd have to register the domain name yourself, which wouldn't cost too much money.... Then I can help configure it to point to your page on my VPS. I'll host it all for free. You'll have your own user

I don't mind at all. I imagine there are more people like me out there who have been following your work, but haven't said anything. I agree that a series of pages explaining how things work may lead to more contributions. At the very least it would lead to more people being better educated on how wavelets work in image compression. But, this is your project, if you don't have the

Hello, I forgot in my last reply that my DWT implementation can be speed up, for example I'm doing for now: for (;_X1<_E_;_X1++,_RES+=2) //dilatation { _RES[0]=_X1[0]<<3; _RES[1]=(_X1[1]+_X1[0])<<2; } then for (;_X2<_E_;_X2++,_RES+=2) //details { _RES[0]-=(_X2[1]+_X2[0])<<1; _RES[1]+=6*_X2[1]-_X2[2]-_X2[0];

Well, if you want to pursue a collaborative project, you need to attract others to work on it. Perhaps 'demo'

Hi Silvia, Thank you very much for your answer! Your opinion is much appreciated. Your advice is wisdom, but very quickly to rectify or precise my situation, I am finishing a 2-year job contract and there will maybe be a "vacation" period before the next contract (if I find one), so I would like to invest this time for the NHW Project, but that's right that image/video compression,

Raphael, Some 15 years ago I implemented limited functionality Theora in our cameras FPGA (it took me 6 month of hard labor), and then gave up - it is a very crowded space and it is difficult to compete with more advanced codecs. And for our other work we anyway need almost raw image data, so we are using JPEG-based JP4 format (https://community.elphel.com/jp4) that we originally developed for

Hi Andrey, Thank you for your answer.Actually, NHW is very low-power so I think it could be geared toward any hardware.But actually I don't have hardware skills, so NHW is not a real hardware project for now maybe? I agree with you that it is extremely difficult (for me) to build a community around NHW, I'm certainly very bad/underskilled at it.Any help is welcome! Cheers, Raphael Le
