XEVE updats last week

[Selur]

Good to know, but not interesting unless it's part of normal ffmpeg

[i990049]

Anything that doesn't use '--sar 1:1' doesn't work atm. (https://github.com/mpeg5/xeve/issues/105)

LAV Filters Megamix 0.79.1-3 Free Download - VideoHelp
This LAVFilters with PotPlayer can play your EVC video encoded by Hybrid 2024.04.28.1

[Selur]

Nice. (wasn't encoded by Hybrid, encoded it during my command line test)
If you remind me at 27th of May, I might have some time to look into adding experimental support to Hybrid.
(proper support will only be available once it's in ffmpeg main branch, and thus the source filters for Vapoursynth, Avisynth and MPC-HC willl support it)

[Bartoloni]

oh nice! , just tried can be very very nice .. now. can be possible to do some tests and comparison from H264 MKV to the new format ...

[Selur]

Just had a look at xeve again an noticed:

-z, --fps [INTEGER]
    : frame rate (frame per second)

So no 23.976 or 29.97 fps.

[i990049]

May 27th is coming.

[Selur]

yeah, and from the looks of it I won't have time to add anything new to Hybrid, since tons of stuff is broken.

actually work?

For example using: '--cutree 1' results in 'command parsing error (--cutree)'

[i990049]

Just had a look at xeve again an noticed:

  -z, --fps [INTEGER]
    : frame rate (frame per second)

So no 23.976 or 29.97 fps.

https://github.com/mpeg5/xeve/issues/109...2133322363

[Selur]

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -r 30000/1001 output.mp4

That will only set the frame rate of the container, not the stream.
That is not a solution and not something I would add to Hybrid.
