if you have similar card and experience slow h264 encoding... also see next mail for ffmoeg patch serues (not sure if Cingg can benefit from ffmpeg patches...) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: *Nicholas Rush (@NicholasRush)* <gitlab(a)gitlab.freedesktop.org> Date: Saturday, December 25, 2021 Subject: Re: mesa | VAAPI H.264 encoding is slow on Polaris vs. HEVC and Windows AMF (#3540) To: randrianasulu(a)gmail.com Nicholas Rush <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NicholasRush> commented on a discussion <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/3540#note_1201025>: Wow, everything works as intended now, thank you! 1080p60 now works(tested in obs with 10,000 bitrate) on rx580.

EXPERIMENTAL: blu-ray lpcm profile + gui
by Andrew Randrianasulu 21 Dec '21

21 Dec '21

well, me and gui not quite get along... (see new layout of 'create bd' window..) but... it seems to work? you can choose profile (out of two) and it will appear in rendering window..

tsmuxer gui
by Andrew Randrianasulu 21 Dec '21

21 Dec '21

Attempt at utilizing tsmuxer depending on checkbox in BD creation window. (tsmuxer should avoid whole loop mounting/unmounting root requrement.. and support more features like HEVC muxing, arbitrary delay/chapters..)

14 Plugin GUIs improved
by Phyllis Smith 21 Dec '21

21 Dec '21

Today's checkin includes 14 plugins with improved GUIs to add Tumbler Boxes with current value now visible and ability to type in a specific desired value. Modified plugins are: - alpha + Reset button was added - brightness - huesaturation - linearBlur - polar - radialblur - rgbshift - sharpen - unsharp + hard to use Dial switched to the more consistent slider bar - wave - whirl - yuv - yuvshift - zoomblur Thanks to the Anonymous Contributor for this useful, more consistent, and desirable presentation for these plugins. This was very tedious work.

Is SD and HD 422 Video Capture obtainable with V4L(2)?

With reference to Adam Wilt: https://www.adamwilt.com/DV-FAQ-editing.html#transcoding > I-frame-only MPEG-2 is said to be comparable to DV format compression > at the same bit rate.

Linux drivers for Kona LHe plus?
by Andrew Randrianasulu 19 Dec '21

19 Dec '21

Hello. I am currently poke code of Cinelerra-gg {0} (fork of Cinelerra-HV {1}). Our software (Linux-only, even if you can try to compile on Windows or FreeBSD) tries to be quite high-end NLE with support for 32-bit floating point data path. On your product page https://www.aja.com/products/kona-lhe-plus I see "Supporting macOS, Windows and Linux, KONA LHe Plus offers cost effective simple connectivity for a range of workflows." yet on your (?) driver page https://github.com/aja-video/ntv2-v4l2 I can't see this specific card listed. Does this mean current (hopefully v4l2) drivers for Linux non-public/proprietary? Please indicate if I can forward your reply to our public mail list (cc-ed), or should I paraphrase it. {0} - https://www.cinelerra-gg.org/ {1} - http://www.heroinewarrior.com/cinelerra.php
