    Ah, nothing really. Just some homework, and I've been doing a lot cooking and helping my brother keep the rodents out of our garden, as we seem to have no garden and lots of fat rabbits and voles running around.

    What's going on with you? :>

    Wow, Windows 8 Release Preview is better than I thought.

    Now the interface looks almost flat, even though it's still Aero. Just barely Aero.

    No more sudden performance hiccups while right-clicking the desktop Or flicker while switching tabs in IE. And sites look better simply because the unprefixed variant is supported for even more CSS properties, including the repeat omissions. Also stops screwing up the layout in VRIM. (Guess it's fixed) (now you only need to get rid of the favicon segregation)

    Basically, it works pretty well as a workhorse OS for me. Hmm...

    Also, it installs in less than half an hour.

    I miss the original Aero cursors, though. They all got replaced by flatter, blue-r equivalents.

    CSS gradient support now comes with support for "to" syntaxes!

    Rest in peace, IE7-era error page styling.

    There's also an option to make IE always restore all tabs that were open when you close an IE session, just like Opera.

    So liek, I'm considering installing Win 7 64-bit on my system to see if it makes any performance changes, and while browsing some stuff online I came across this gem of a question:

    "If I install Windows 7 32bit twice would that make it 64bit?"

    Now, I'm generating the 137 kbps videos. Aim: to beat your compression quality using whatever it takes.

    Mission failed, though.

    As for "The Browser You Loved To Hate", it compresses live action video even better.

    Seeing as they aim to halve even what H.264 did at comparable quality with H.265, I shudder to think of the day when a telephone line is enough for consistent 240p.

    It's like the folks doing the H.264 thing is doing some voodoo magic.

    As for encoding speed quality comparisons... starting from the fastest to slowest (lowest quality to highest) (one line for one setting)

    EGAD! Dear god, the macroblocking! So. Many. Poster-gradients.
    No more macroblocking. Hmm... But it's a tad blurry.
    Very similar to the one before.
    Still very similar to the one before, but compared to the second fastest, I can see that gradients are now more faithful. <!-- Point of diminishing returns -->
    More of the same...
  86. Twiggy
    May 21, 2012 05:40:02 AM
    Twiggy
    Albeit a bit glitchy (gradients stick), the video still holds up incredibly well at 848x480. And I'm using Medium speed encoding!

    The 1150, uh, 1374 kbps (Video CD bitrate), DVD resolution looks ace, of course. We've achieved over 1000%! You can stick 3 full 21-minute episodes on a single CD without switching discs. Come to think of it, at Video CD resolution and similar image quality otherwise (352x240 anamorphic / 320x240 square pixels), you'd be fitting in around... 12-15 episodes.

    I've seen your small version, and I think I'm a bit saddened by the lack of stereo audio. Then again, anything to keep the size down

    When I compress things to 480p using H.264, my target is Video CD bitrate (1374 kbps), because it'll look good enough to be transparent to original DVD. Any lower and we'd have more obvious macroblocking; more, and we'd be wasting storage in a sense.

    (Yeah, I seemed to have screwed up bitrate calculations.)

    Now, given the same 1374 kbps bitrate, I'm testing various encoding speeds, from the fastest to the slowest. I wonder how well the video quality holds up. To be honest, the "Placebo" speed seems to make almost no difference compared to medium speed. The entire comparison will be in another VM.

    At 424x240 299 kbps video, 32 kHz 64kbps audio, the trailer looks pretty great and the audio is still crisp. What warbling on audio? XD

    Next one I'm gonna try the "The Browser You Loved to Hate" video.

    H.264 is designed as a streaming format. Their definition of "streaming format", though, seems to include dial-up or bottom-tier connections all the way to professional video editing at 7K resolutions.

    By the way, the first time I used dial-up was when I'm already running Windows XP. (Windows 98 SE on my first computer had a massive system file corruption going on to the point that it won't even boot, so we decided to just ditch Windows 98, seeing as the computer exceeded the minimum specs for XP)
