How does a video codec work?



What? It's a piece of software / hardware that compresses or decompresses digital video. Why? Market and society demands higher quality videos with limited bandwidth or storage. Remember when we calculated the needed bandwidth for 30 frames per second, 24 bits per pixel, resolution of a 480x240 video? It was 82.944 Mbps with no compression applied. It's the only way to deliver HD/FullHD/4K in TVs and the Internet. How? We'll take a brief look at the major techniques here.

OpenShot Video Editor Masks & Transitions Video Tutorial



Masks are used in video editing to hide (or erase) parts of a video. Similar to a green-screen/chroma key effect, but far more customizable. Effective use of masks require lots of planning, and are usually easiest with a stationary camera position, so you do not have to create a different mask for each frame. The following video tutorial walks through the process of creating a custom mask in OpenShot.

How to Rip the Timing and English Subs From an AVI File Using AviSubDetector



This guide is to show you how to rip the timing and English subs from an AVI file using AviSubDetector. This guide will not let you rip the timing and subs 100%. I think my method will let you get 90% accuracy. After that, you will have to do some manual work to fill in the missing blanks. This manual work will probably take you about 1-2 hours. Considering the program probably takes anywhere between 15 minutes to 30 minutes to do an episode and can do batch work, this should still save any fan sub group a tremendous amount of time. In the old days, when I did timing manually, it took me like 5-8 hours to do 1 episode. Now with a program such as this, it takes me like 2 hours max to do the timing for an episode. This need not be said but I am going to say it anyway. This program and guide will not help you if there are no hard coded subs on the AVI you are using. Accuracy might get lower if the subs are located on the actual movie as opposed to the black portion of the movie if the movie is in widescreen mode.

How to Use eac3to



Making the most out of eac3to involves using several external filters. These can be audio decoders and encoders or media splitters and muxers. As eac3to puts quality on top, it uses the best audio decoders available, but since most of them are commercial software, there also freeware alternatives (usually of lower sound quality though). Depending on what is the user's goal more or less of the filters below are needed.

How to record / rip from Hulu or any streaming video source



There are tons of programs, websites and browser plug ins that allow you to download videos from streaming websites like Youtube, Metacafe, Myspace, Hulu and others. Even though most of them work fine, some video providers, especially Hulu and Myspace Video constantly try to protect their content by encrypting their feeds, often making direct downloading impossible. In this guide we will use Replay Video Capture in order to record directly the video you are watching, a method that always works regardless of the source.

Blu-ray Disc standalone results/tests on DVDR of AVCHD, BD, FULLBD, CROPPED, HDAUDIO



THE TEST 1. For AVCHD, NEWBD, OLDBD, C1080, C720, DTSHD, THD you can download test samples from sendspace / mediafire (23MB) and burn the isos with imgburn. If burning to DVD+R make sure booktype is set to DVD-R. In order for FULLBD testing you need to process an original BD with BD-Rebuilder 2. Try playing avchd.iso, newbd.iso, oldbd.iso, avchd_aux.iso, avchd_strict.iso (results try to be as accurate as can be but aren't guaranteed) 3. If avchd.iso plays test avchd-crop720.iso, avchd-crop1080.iso, avchd-dtshd.iso, avchd-truehd.iso If avchd.iso doesn't play but newbd.iso plays test newbd-crop720.iso, newbd-crop1080.iso, newbd-dtshd.iso, newbd-truehd.iso 4. When testing FULLBD if it doesn't play with default output run the index.bdmv through goBD and try again. 4. Report what plays and what doesn't. In order for the the crop iso's to be considered playable they have to show a round circle centered on the screen and and no video artifacts. For FULLBD please report if there is any thing in BDMV/JAR directory. Thanks in advance. H.264 video only

How to Add Text Effects and Unicode Characters to MPEG-4 Subtitles



It has been an ongoing and frustrating problem for me to find a way to create satisfying, professional looking subtitles that will display with MPEG-4 files (DivX, XviD, etc) watched on a standalone DVD player - that is, subtitles with fully-formatted text effects, such as bold, italics, colours and, especially, Unicode characters (specifically, musical note symbols to signify song lyrics in the subtitles) - just like those of professionally-authored DVDs. It's taken many months of perusing dozens of forum threads, and much trial and error, but I've finally figured out a fairly simple and effective way to do it.

Using DGIndex



DGIndex is one of the most versatile and important tools available to digital video enthusiasts. As a standalone program it can give detailed information about MPEG-1 and MPEG-1 files, as well as demuxing and sometimes repairing them. As a preparation and analysis tool used in conjunction with AviSynth or other tools it's invaluable for working with MPEG-2 sources.

Youtube Upload, increase quality/control



The facts: at the moment you can upload an FLV1 Flash clip to youtube and have it pass under the radar unconverted. This saves a lot of time during upload, because you're uploading a lot smaller files. Saves suprises, as you know what you're getting before upload, and you get control over your content.

Stand-alone MPEG-4 (DivX, XviD...) Player Buyers Guide



Quite recently I went through the tedious process of researching the whole stand-alone player topic. Overall, there seems to be huge confusion over the actual technical features of these players and you have to scavenge dozens of Internet Forums for bits and pieces of unreliable information to aid your buying decision. Furthermore, Europeans suffer from a huge selection of players while people in the US have to choose between only a few available models.

MSU Lossless Codecs Comparison



The name of this video codec category declares full quality losses absence - the decompressed video stream should be completely identical to original. Output quality is same for all codecs. Absolute absence of losses is a very strong requirement, therefore it is often hard to achieve compression ratios above 3:1. Some of the tested codecs have an opportunity of work in "lossy" mode; it allows to reach considerably higher compression degree with rather small losses of quality. However, only "fully lossless" mode is considered in the current comparison. The only parameter of comparison is the compression level.

When I decided to get started with DVB, I was in for a rough ride. I couldn't find a site that told me everything I really needed to know, and so even though I already has a basic knowledge when I went to a store for the first time, I was still at the mercy of the salespeople. This is an attempt to give you some of the information I think might be useful to you, and which helps you to become a better informed customer.
