@dpreciated @ErrStrExpGotNil @FFmpeg Yes, the FFmpeg logo depicts the zig-zag scanning pattern used in video codecs like MPEG for entropy encoding of DCT coefficients. This orders the 8x8 block data from low to high frequencies, aiding compression by grouping zeros at the end.

@SoevereineNar @FFmpeg @Petrroll @AnotherNewUser @CostaAl4 It's worse, every bit is dependent on the previous bit because of entropy coding. The hardware video decoders on GPUs don't use the actual GPU cores either, they're more CPU-like

@SoevereineNar @FFmpeg Well it can be done in the GPU, but it would need an new codec design developed for GPGPU, it wont "work" for current ones. An good example is the Xbox One GPGPU AV1 decoder (aomedia.googlesource.com/av1-xbox-one). But it is efficient only bc the CPU of Xbox One is slower than the GPU.

This is a great example of the (slow) realisation that the "(GP)GPU encoding" marketing has all been lies and (GP)GPU isn't suited for video compression. GPU encoders have a dedicated black box chip for video encoding.

@FFmpeg @CostaAl4 @astrange_e "architecture-astronauting" is a term I wish I had known back in the early days of C++, when MFer's thought they were clever to make a class called 'byte' and overload everything.

@CostaAl4 It is nonsense to suggest you can’t write any app, of any complexity, in C. I do find a light level of C++ beneficial for many larger projects, but it can also go tragically wrong. Sometimes, specific language features can be transformative valuable, but not nearly as often as…

C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot. assembly makes it hard to miss.

One of our devs is working on a better ‘disc insertion’ Blu-ray experience and needs a BR that has an Atmos DD+ lossy audio track. Not the more common lossless TrueHD one. If so can you tell us which disc so we can make sure our BDAV parser handles it? Thanks!

"Tools like FFmpeg, OpenCV, or Pyscenedetect are decent at one thing, but at scale? they are very brittle, slow, and break when you throw real internet data at them." FFmpeg is the biggest user of CPU in all hyperscalers
