In deze tijdspanne heb ik de mogelijkheid gekregen om in een boeiend domein aan wetenschappelijk onderzoek te doen. Dit is dan ook een uitgelezen kans om de mensen te bedanken zonder wie dit werk niet mogelijk zou zijn geweest. In de eerste plaats wil ik mijn promotor, prof. dr. ir. Rik Van de Walle bedanken. Dankzij zijn onuitputtelijke inzet is het Multimedia Lab als onder- zoeksgroep uitgegroeid tot een gevestigde waarde op nationaal en internatio- naal vlak. Deze omgeving vormde voor mij dan ook het ideale kader voor het behalen van mijn doctoraat. Verder wil ik mijn promotor eveneens bedanken voor de kansen die hij mij geboden heeft om mijn onderzoek voor te stellen op verschillende internationale conferenties. Het bijwonen van deze conferenties heeft me als onderzoeker, maar ook als mens, enorm veel bijgebracht. Ook mijn vroegere (Boris Rogge, Sam Lerouge) en huidige collega’s van het Multimedia Lab wil ik uitgebreid bedanken. Het was voor mij erg aange- naam in een dergelijke open en vriendschappelijke omgeving te kunnen wer- ken. Een aantal collega’s hebben grote delen van dit proefschrift heel grondig nagelezen.

  • Advanced Video Editing with Mpeg Video Wizard
    ADVANCED VIDEO EDITING WITH MPEG VIDEO WIZARD. Start the program. TO EDIT OUT COMMERCIALS: Click on the ‘Files’ tab and then the ‘Open’ icon. Browse to the file you want to edit. For the purpose of this tutorial I will be editing a program stream from Digital TV called ‘Johnny Cash’. A thumbnail of the file will appear in the project window on the left. To start editing, drag the icon to the ‘Input’ window. Using the keyboard is the fastest way to edit. Slide the progress bar along till you get close to the point where you want to mark a starting point for a selection. You can use the left and right arrow keys to move slowly to locate the starting frame. The up and down arrow keys jump through in large steps. You can press d to start playing and again to pause. Press s once to speed up the play and again to go super fast, once more to return to normal play. This also applies to the navigation with the arrow keys so when you have marked the start press s once to change to fast forward or twice to super fast forward and then use the right arrow key to move very quickly to the end of the area where you want to put a mark out. A short key of the left arrow key will take you back one frame at a time as you will mostly zoom past the spot where you want to finish. If you have been zooming super fast just press the s key again and you can move back at normal speed to fine tune the selection.

  • Vicbond007's Guide to Working with DVD Footage
    VicBond007’s Guide to Working with DVD Footage for Use in Anime Music Videos Copying a DVD Copying a DVD The first step to allow you to use DVD footage as your source, is to copy the DVD to your hard drive. Commercial DVDs are protected by a Content Scrambling System, abbreviated as CSS. CSS is a set of 5, 2-digit hexidecimal keys that are only supposedly readable by set-top DVD players, and DVD player software. The purpose of this scrambling code is to prevent you from directly accessing the contents of the disc on your pc, otherwise you could easily make a perfect digital copy by just dragging and drop- ping the contents of the disk to your computer, or decoding the video stream directly off the Figure 1: DVD decrypter version 3.2.3.0 detecting the presence of my laptop’s DVD drive, as well as the disc to an AVI or some other file format. fact that Wolf’s Rain: Disc 8 is in the drive. If you tried to decode the contents of a DVD directly off the disc, the picture would be unrec- ognizable and scattered with various pink and green boxes. If you try to drag the .vob files off the disc, in most situations, it will transfer, however the data will just be unreadable and appear corrupt. If you want to know all the geeky information about CSS, then you can find out all about it at the following address: http://www.alleged.com/mirrors/DVD-CSS/ The solution is to copy the DVD to our drive, and remove the encryption in the process.

  • Processing Videos for Use with ELAN
    Mar/2020 Processing videos for use with ELAN. Digital videos can be encoded in many different ways, with a variety of codecs and containers. Depending on the platform (Windows/Mac OS X/Linux) ELAN supports different file formats, largely determined by the available media player frameworks. Each framework supports one or more proprietary formats but also a few formats that can be considered to be more or less cross-platform. Although there can be good reasons to use one of the proprietary formats, we recommend to choose a cross-platform, “standardized” format where possible. In this document we present some recommendations for encoding MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and MP4 (H264) files for use in ELAN. Although MPEG-2 is not usually supported without installing additional codecs or plugins, we include it here because of its high quality. The settings presented here are general recommendations which don’t guarantee good playback performance on all systems, you might still have to experiment which settings that work best for your requirements. Note that this document does not contain any specific recommendation for video & audio files for use with The Language Archive. Although the encoding settings do produce valid video & audio files, one may use different settings to achieve the best quality for archiving. Index: 1. Recommended encoding settings for videos (mp4, mpeg2, mpg1) 2. Free software for processing media 3. Commercial software for processing media 4. Audio visualization in ELAN 1. Recommended encoding settings for video The following settings per encoding/format are general (tool independent) recommendations. Tool specific issues are listed at the end of this chapter.

  • Compression Tools
    Compression Tools As you have probably gathered by now, quite a lot of compression tools are available these days. This chapter outlines major multipurpose tools; interesting tools that are single-format or have special features for that format are covered in the chapter on that format. While the dream of “ the single tool that does everything ” hasn’t been realized, most compressionists wind up with a few go-to tools that work well with the sources and platforms they target. Generally, the broader the range of jobs you need to handle, the greater the variety of tools you’ll want to have to do them well. I ’m focusing on software-based tools for transcoding. Where products include live ingest or encoding I’ll call that out, but I am not covering live-only encoders here. What to Look for in a Compression Tool There are a lot of factors to consider in choosing a compression tool, and different factors will be more or less important depending on one’s needs. Class Different compression tools target different usage and pricing models, and what you need varies a lot depending on what you’re trying to do. I break it down into a few general classes, as described in the following sections. Consumer Consumer encoding tools are aimed at the casual users doing their own content. Increasingly these are web-based, not a traditional local app. We’re seeing a lot of adoption of free, open source tools for consumer transcoding, particularly for legally questionable tasks like transcoding from encrypted DVDs.

  • VCD Audio + Stills Guide
    VideoCD Audio + Stills A solution compatible with DVD players 1. INTRODUCTION This manual is a translation into English from the original Spanish document available in www.videoedicion.org and www.vcdsp.com, firstly published on June-2002. The procedure described in this manual is a modification from the one entitled VideoCD Audio: an alternative to MP3 CD compatible with DVD players, also available in Spanish in the quoted web. In that manual it was explained how to make a non-standard VCD with many hours of music, up to 99 themes directly reachable through menus, that could be played in many DVD. During the music reproduction the TV screen appeared in black (no image). The main feature added here consists in the possibility of associating a still picture to each music theme (or if you prefer, a music theme to each picture ;-). This will require more place in the CD so that there will be less room available for music, but it will allow you to display on the TV the scanned original CD cover, or any text or image you want, while listening to music. Anyway, the goal is to put several hours of music time in a single CD (from 3,5 up to 6 hours in an 80 minutes CD-R) compatible with (almost) any DVD player. This new method can be seen as the optimisation, for music and stills storage, of the non-standard VCD format called CVCD. When DVD movies are backed to CD you need to store a lot of video information and a comparatively smaller part of audio data.
