Downscaling and Colorimetry
Hi Don, I have a question regarding the "Colorimetry" field reported by your tools. As I understand it, HD (720p+) video uses BT.709, while SD video uses various standards, depending on the source format. DGIndexNV will report e.g. "Colorimetry: BT.709 [1]*" for HD, where the star means BT.709 is as...

Bye bye AIO cooling, you won't be missed
Wow! Either I'm feeling elation from being moose approved, or I've located a new supply of upsidaisium! 8-) I will be checking out the Linux version. I'm still plodding along with my trusty Windows 7 Haswell and GTX 760 rig, but I know it won't last forever. I have no plans to use Windows 10/11 in t...

Bye bye AIO cooling, you won't be missed
Hey Don, long time no see! I went with Noctua for my CPU and case fans on my current rig, and it was a great decision. They're so quiet, especially compared to my old Dell that sounded like a jet engine all the time. :lol: It looks like you'be been busy since I last checked in. :o I suspect Boris wa...

Re: PAL to NTSC telecining
What about if you omit menus? BDMV has many arbitrary restrictions that don't apply to stand alone video files, e.g. the low consecutive B-frame cap.

Re: PAL to NTSC telecining
Yikes, thanks for that bit of information. I always buy the UK DVD/BD for PAL shows, because I'm not confident that the NTSC conversion will be handled properly, and I want the original video format, anyway. I wasn't sure if this was necessary for BD, because the standard should allow them to just u...

Re: PAL to NTSC telecining
Unless you have to target DVD-Video as your output format, I don't think there's any reason to do any of this anymore. HDTVs support all framerates regardless of region, so if you have a Blu-ray player, you can just leave the video as 25 fps and burn it to a DVD-R in a MP4 or MKV container and play ...

Re: PAL to NTSC telecining
Yep. The audio matter is more complicated these days, too. In the past you could usually assume that the audio had just been slowed down from 25 -> 24 fps, thus changing the pitch and tempo, so you could simply speed it up to 25 fps again to restore the pitch and tempo. These days it's possible to f...

Re: PAL to NTSC telecining
I actually encountered the "other" way of doing it some years ago. You can tell it's not very common, because mkvtoolnix wasn't able to handle it properly by default, but Moritz Bunkus was able to fix the bug after I reported it to him. What you do is slow 25 fps down to 25000 / 10001 (24.975) fps, ...

Re: DGDecomb
The radical solution is to get government out of it completely; let private enterprise fund things. I would argue that this would cause the opposite of the desired effect. The least reliable studies are funded by corporations with a vested interest in specific outcomes. If corporation x funds a stu...

Re: DGDecomb
It wouldn't be too slow. I just haven't implemented it. Do you have a clip that clearly shows its advantage? I'm afraid not. I've just read the Decomb manual, which says things like: If your telecined source material is NTSC 3:2 pulldown, you can enable pattern guidance, which can make the field ma...

Re: DGDecomb
Is that because it would be too slow? I usually enable pattern guidance on Telecide when I know the material is of a particular type. It seems like a worthy option to keep, IMO.admin wrote:DGTelecide does not support pattern guidance.

Here's hoping for native Linux versions once Windows 11 proves to be so full of spyware that nobody will use it, thus forcing us all to look for a different OS.

I've been given to understand that sites designed for displays of reasonable size and resolution don't work well on a phone's tiny screen. The formatting is probably broken, and you probably have to scroll way more than you normally would to get anywhere. I would also surmise that with the push to d...

It would allow users to post on the forum from their mobile devices.
I don't really see the point, since anybody who wants to use your tools must already own a PC (generally with an nVidia GPU), so they're guaranteed to have a way to access the forum already if they use your software.

I would suggest leaving the DGDecNV forum the way it is, but create a sub-forum named "DGDecNV Plugins" or something like that where you can put threads to discuss all of these secondary filters that rely on DGDecNV.
