    Por si alguien quiere info sobre códecs de música, aprovecho a compartir esto que he escrito respondiendo a otro toot xD

  4. This is a clever & clear article about making a toy video codec. If you’ve ever been curious about how/why video codecs can make a video file smaller with/without some loss of image quality, check it out. medium.com/@rajaryan1492007/i- #coding #codecs #video_codecs #ffmpeg

  5. I depreciate when Fediverse instances convert attachments to WebP. I depreciate the adoption of WebP forced by Chrome in general. And I generally hate Chrome as a whole. Please don’t use Chrome if you can help it. :gutkato_trinkas_teon:

  7. Update: Problem solved, see social.tchncs.de/@jesterchen/1

    What do I do about "no video with supported format and mime type found" in firefox on linux? Many videos aren"t playing, while youtube works without problems.

    If I open the not working vids in chromium, there are no problems either. If I download and mplay/vlc them, no problem. If I download them and open them locally: problem.

    I"ve a fresh installation (including no prior profile dir), have installed betterfox, ublock - nothing different than my other systems. I simply cannot see some vidz. :(

    thewhale.cc/posts/handbrake

    HandBrake is a open-source tool, built by volunteers, for converting video from nearly any format to a selection of modern, widely supported codecs.

  10. 2/2
    • Track decode_fail, CPU% and engagement per cohort; serve more advanced codecs only where wins are real.

    Result: fewer painful upshifts on cheap phones, lower encoding spend, and better perceived startup for the majority. Worth a 1–2% rollout. 🚀🧩

Very useful #TestNumbers (for #UK #IE #USA #CA and #MX ) for testing all kinds of #telephones (from your #mobilephone to #VOIP and even any remaining #landlines) - they provide the same level of tests that #Openreach and other telcos have access to, you can check if #DTMF is working well and that #codecs or poor #network conditions aren't mangling the audio..

  13. finally back to editing the video, and I've now found that FFV1 mostly does not have hardware accelerated encode/decode on Linux yet (ffmpeg shipped major improvements last summer, but ffmpeg is not VLC or Kdenlive)

    that's too bad, because it's a lot more space-efficient than HuffYUV, but if my (fairly ancient) laptop chokes on 1080p30 playback due to using the CPU exclusively, I can't use it.

  17. Bluetooth codecs are a mess, right? AAC, AptX, LDAC... what's the difference and why should we even care?

    This article breaks it down so your audio never sounds like it's coming from a tin can again. What's your go-to codec for quality sound?

  20. Well, isn't this 'feature' interesting? HP and Dell are quietly disabling HEVC hardware support on some laptops, meaning your browser might just give you an infinite loading screen instead of video. Apparently, those pesky codec licensing fees are getting pricey.

    Are you affected by this hardware downgrade? What's your go-to third-party solution?

  21. Codec là gì? Tóm tắt: Codec (coder‑decoder) nén và giải nén video, audio, hình ảnh để giảm băng thông, lưu trữ và tăng tốc phát. Các chuẩn phổ biến: H.264, H.265, VP8/9, AV1 cho video; MP3, AAC, Opus cho audio; JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF cho hình ảnh. Chọn codec mở (AV1, Opus) để tránh phí bản quyền. #codec #tech #media #video #audio #image #công_nghệ #codecs

  22. También he visto que existe el contenedor mka, que es aún más multiproposito que .oga ¿alguien podría darme un buen ejemplo del uso de este?

  23. Una pregunta sobre codecs de audio y contenedores.
    Estoy ripeando música en FLAC a Opus y veo que Fre:ac me da la opción de meterla en contenedor .opus o en contenedor .oga, me imagino que el contenedor opus es preferido, aunque sea mimetype Ogg, así que la cuestión sería ¿usar opus u oga? y en caso de opus por encima de oga con que codecs de audio se recomienda .oga y pregunta bonus he bisto que se puede encapsilar Flac en .ogg ¿que usos tiene eso?

  24. 🎬 AV1 is supposed to make streaming better, so why isn’t everyone using it?
    @verge

    「 Netflix, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, and Meta banded together to develop video compression’s latest evolution: AV1. The companies say the video codec is around 30 percent more efficient compared to other standards like HEVC and the Google-developed VP9, allowing it to deliver higher-quality video at a lower bandwidth 」

  26. Have you ever encountered VLC unable to play a .mkv file when your machine is plugged into hdmi? I have this .mkv file that will play fine on my MacBook screen, but if I plug an hdmi cable into my MacBook to output to a projector, VLC just shows a black screen, even after restarting VLC.

    Thankfully I was able to get what I wanted playing over the projector from a different source and in a different format but I'm still really confused. #VLC #mkv #hdmi #tech #VideoFormats #codecs #mac

  28. 🎧 You Didn't Notice MP3 Is Now Free

    「 The MP3 format, once the gold standard for digital audio files, is now free. The licensing and patents on MP3 encoders have expired, meaning you can now include them in your applications without paying royalties. For software developers and audio enthusiasts, this might seem like a big deal 」

  29. Seeing more people online encoding in AV1 though way to many people still encoding H264. I guess the latter still ensues the greatest playback compatibility but feels very old tech (or is that just me?) #video #codecs

  30. FFmpeg, Ogg Vorbis, and FLAC are key technologies in the world of multimedia processing, each serving a unique purpose. FFmpeg is a powerful, open-source suite for converting, streaming, and manipulating audio and video files across various formats. Ogg Vorbis is a free, open-source lossy codec known for its efficient compression and high-quality audio, ideal for streaming.

  31. So Mozilla has apparently just reconsidered their stance on JPEG XL! That is, going from ‘nope lol’ to ‘rust ftw lol’. Which reads like a rather ungraceful turnaround, but it is a turnaround, so… kudos to Mozilla for correcting some of their wrongs! :gutkato_dikfingro_supren:

    (They say the requirement is for memory safety, which seems fair enough, but I do wonder why they needed three freaking years just to decide this was their main concern. Yay for efficiency, I guess.) :gutkato_flucerba:
