Dear Customer, This Is a Small Introduction to Common Questions Regarding Video Replay and Mapping and the E:Cue Programmer Software e:cue control GmbH Im Dörener Feld 11 | 33100 Paderborn | Germany Tel. +49 5251 180 899-0 | Fax. +49 5251 180 899-29 www.ecue.de | [email protected] Dear Customer, this is a small introduction to common questions regarding video replay and mapping and the e:cue programmer Software: Basics: Container Formats – These hold audio and video inside the file. Since the container can hold various formats within it, you may need to install a codec that will actually allow the audio and the video that is inside the Container to play (or be “decoded”). The most common and also recommended container format for e:cue is AVI (Audio Video Interleave). AVI – The e:cue media player supports playback of AVI files, if your video doesn’t play correctly please continue reading. Video/Audio Codecs – Since the e:cue media player can “open” your files to see what is inside, the next step is to enable it to “decode” (or play) the audio and video. Dealing with codecs in Windows is one of the toughest things to understand for most people. Warning: Codec Packs The use of random “Codec Packs” is not advised. While a very few of them are built nicely, the majority of built by pirates who know little to nothing about what they are doing. Installation of any “Codec Pack” will almost guarantee you hours of extra work trying to get things fixed. Unless you know what you are doing and are looking to take support into your own hands, don’t install them. EXCEPT: The ffdshow codec pack which can be downloaded for free here: http://ffdshow-tryout.sourceforge.net/ Install the codec pack and make sure to check that ALL formats mentioned inside the installation dialog are checked to be decoded with ffdshow. Otherwise it won`t work. Restart your Operating System after installation. If you do want to use a different container than .avi, make sure to check out http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html#Dnload and download “super” freeware, which can convert ANY video into ANY other format for FREE. Check the support files on the erightsoft homepage for support and ”how-tos”. If you would like to “look” inside a video file to find out which codec has been used inside, check out “gspot” a video and audio analyzing tool, which is also for free. e:cue programmer video wizard related information: If you would like to map video to a matrix there are several things you have to think about: - Real Matrix Size (REAL amount of pixels that are going to be used) - Video Size (obvious) - Aspect Ratio (Ratio between X and Y amount of Pixels) The e:cue Programmer will ALWAYS resize the total amount of video information into the patched Dmx matrix size. Therefore it is always better to product video content in the real size of the matrix it will be used for. If that is not possible it is possible to choose the amount of X and Y amount inside the video wizards menu. This will CUT OUT the area to use of the video, e.g. if you choose Y Axis 30% min and 70% max., it will cut out the 29% bottom and 29% top amount of the total video. It works the same way with the X axis amount. The closer the video content is to the really used amount of pixels, the better. 1:1 pixel mapping is possible with the programmer although you have to adjust and test some settings due to the fact that the programmer interpolates the video pixels for better optical results. You need to readjust the internal renderer settings inside the show properties` ”video” settings and change the values to a X- multiple of the X and Y pixels in order to override the interpolation and therefore receive 1:1 pixel mapping. © e:cue lighting control JF 2009 www.ecue.de - An OSRAM Company .

  • Download Media Player Codec Pack Version 4.1 Media Player Codec Pack
    download media player codec pack version 4.1 Media Player Codec Pack. Description: In Microsoft Windows 10 it is not possible to set all file associations using an installer. Microsoft chose to block changes of file associations with the introduction of their Zune players. Third party codecs are also blocked in some instances, preventing some files from playing in the Zune players. A simple workaround for this problem is to switch playback of video and music files to Windows Media Player manually. In start menu click on the "Settings". In the "Windows Settings" window click on "System". On the "System" pane click on "Default apps". On the "Choose default applications" pane click on "Films & TV" under "Video Player". On the "Choose an application" pop up menu click on "Windows Media Player" to set Windows Media Player as the default player for video files. Footnote: The same method can be used to apply file associations for music, by simply clicking on "Groove Music" under "Media Player" instead of changing Video Player in step 4. Media Player Codec Pack Plus. Codec's Explained: A codec is a piece of software on either a device or computer capable of encoding and/or decoding video and/or audio data from files, streams and broadcasts. The word Codec is a portmanteau of ' co mpressor- dec ompressor' Compression types that you will be able to play include: x264 | x265 | h.265 | HEVC | 10bit x265 | 10bit x264 | AVCHD | AVC DivX | XviD | MP4 | MPEG4 | MPEG2 and many more. File types you will be able to play include: .bdmv | .evo | .hevc | .mkv | .avi | .flv | .webm | .mp4 | .m4v | .m4a | .ts | .ogm .ac3 | .dts | .alac | .flac | .ape | .aac | .ogg | .ofr | .mpc | .3gp and many more.

Wishmaster I will not cover how to decrypt. This tutorial will be in 2 parts: Part 1: Installing,setting up,and configuring everything needed as well as the configuring the encoder itself. Part 2: The actual encoding process. Theres alot of info. to cover so lets get started. Step 1: The Essential Tools & Utilities 1) Shark007's Codec pack (optional) If you plan on using WMC for playback, and wish to use FFDshow as the decoder, you will need the 64bit add on as well. However, for the purposes of MeGUI, only the 32bit package is needed. [Please Note] You do not actually need any 3rd party Codecs such as FFDShow or Sharks codec pack. Both DVD and BluRay can be indexed and encoded with built in codecs. Extracting BluRay video streams to MKV format is the easiest way to work with them. You will need Haali splitter for these MKVs but if using Shark007s package, it is included.. You will need it only if you decide not to use this codec package.

  • Codec Is a Portmanteau of Either
    What is a Codec? Codec is a portmanteau of either "Compressor-Decompressor" or "Coder-Decoder," which describes a device or program capable of performing transformations on a data stream or signal. Codecs encode a stream or signal for transmission, storage or encryption and decode it for viewing or editing. Codecs are often used in videoconferencing and streaming media solutions. A video codec converts analog video signals from a video camera into digital signals for transmission. It then converts the digital signals back to analog for display. An audio codec converts analog audio signals from a microphone into digital signals for transmission. It then converts the digital signals back to analog for playing. The raw encoded form of audio and video data is often called essence, to distinguish it from the metadata information that together make up the information content of the stream and any "wrapper" data that is then added to aid access to or improve the robustness of the stream. Most codecs are lossy, in order to get a reasonably small file size. There are lossless codecs as well, but for most purposes the almost imperceptible increase in quality is not worth the considerable increase in data size. The main exception is if the data will undergo more processing in the future, in which case the repeated lossy encoding would damage the eventual quality too much. Many multimedia data streams need to contain both audio and video data, and often some form of metadata that permits synchronization of the audio and video. Each of these three streams may be handled by different programs, processes, or hardware; but for the multimedia data stream to be useful in stored or transmitted form, they must be encapsulated together in a container format.

  • A Comparison of Video Formats for Online Teaching Ross A
    Contemporary Issues in Education Research – First Quarter 2017 Volume 10, Number 1 A Comparison Of Video Formats For Online Teaching Ross A. Malaga, Montclair State University, USA Nicole B. Koppel, Montclair State University, USA ABSTRACT The use of video to deliver content to students online has become increasingly popular. However, educators are often plagued with the question of which format to use to deliver asynchronous video material. Whether it is a College or University committing to a common video format or an individual instructor selecting the method that works best for his or her course, this research presents a comparison of various video formats that can be applied to online education and provides guidance in which one to select. Keywords: Online Teaching; Video Formats; Technology Acceptance Model INTRODUCTION istance learning is one of the most talked-about topics in higher education today. Online and hybrid (or blended) learning removes location and time-bound constraints of the traditional college classroom to a learning environment that can occur anytime or anywhere in a global environment. DAccording to research by the Online Learning Consortium, over 5 million students took an online course in the Fall 2014 semester. This represents an increase in online enrollment of over 3.9% in just one year. In 2014, 28% of higher education students took one or more courses online (Allen, I. E. and Seaman, J, 2016). With this incredible growth, albeit slower than the growth in previous years, institutions of higher education are continuing to increase their online course and program offerings. As such, institutions need to find easy to develop, easy to use, reliable, and reasonably priced technologies to deliver online content.

  • Which Image Format
    CASE STUDY Which Image Format PNG PNG (Portable Network Graphics), an extensible file format for the lossless, portable, well-compressed storage of raster images. PNG provides a patent-free replacement for GIF and can also replace many common uses of TIFF. Indexed-color, gray scale, and true color images are supported, plus an optional alpha channel. Sample depths range from 1 to 16 bits. However, the format is not widely supported in common image programs. AVI AVI stands for Audio Video Interleave and is currently the most common file format for storing audio/video data on the PC. AVI’s are 8-bit per image plane. This file format conforms to the Microsoft Windows Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF) specification, which makes it convenient for sharing the image sequence between computers. AVI files (which typically end in the .avi extension) require a specific player that supports. RAW A RAW image format contains minimally processed data from the image sensor. RAW literally means unprocessed or uncooked. RAW images must be processed and converted to RGB format if it is a color image. Photron however, does not limit RAW as a unprocessed image. The “Bayer” check box must be selected to save the RAW image as an unprocessed image. RAW images have 8-bits per image plane. RAWW A RAWW image format contains minimally processed data from the image sensor. RAWW images must be processed and converted to RGB format if it is a color image. Photron however, does not limit RAWW as a unprocessed image. The “Bayer” check box must be selected to save the RAWW image as an unprocessed image.
