Real examples here?
(discuss.tchncs.de)
Friend who is not a software person sent me this tweet, which amused me as it did them. They asked if "runk" was real, which I assume not.
But what are some good examples of real ones like this? xz became famous for the hack of course, so i then read a bit about how important this compression algorithm is/was.
sure? i tried 8bit transparent grayscale png generation and it turns out imagemagick produces images the kindle can display and ffmpeg fucks them up majorly and they wont show on kindle. ffmpeg is nice though.
FFmpeg is basically the only piece of audio/video conversion software in widespread use. Everything uses it under the hood. Microsoft Teams used it to stream your webcam. VLC uses it to play video. If you've ever uploaded your video to an online service to convert it to a different file format or codec, chances are the server that processed it did so using FFmpeg.
I have also noticed that FFmpeg kind of sucks at generating stills for reasons I'm not sure about though.
i know. i use ffmpeg for grading, keying etc in scripts...love it. but it is not good at stills.
