MEETING TIME, who is here?
17:00
Bertl
is here ...
17:01
se6astian
any news to report Bertl?
17:02
Bertl
only that I finally got to setup the HDMI cable tests ...
17:02
se6astian
ah cool, how are they?
17:02
cscar
joined the channel
17:02
Bertl
had to rearrange my test setup because the cables are way to short ;)
17:03
se6astian
ah
17:03
Bertl
well, they are about to run, just finished the setup ;)
17:03
se6astian
ah, right
17:03
se6astian
ok
17:03
se6astian
hi cscar!
17:03
Bertl
so no results yet, but will be available shortly
17:03
cscar
Hi all (sorry, phone call)
17:04
se6astian
so quick updates from me, did not have much time as I was abroad for a film project the last 3 days
17:04
se6astian
had a VC last thursday with Greg to try and revive the website revamp
17:04
se6astian
small steps there, improving content, adding illustrations, images, etc.
17:04
se6astian
fine tuning structure here and there
17:05
se6astian
adding footage
17:05
se6astian
in a more prominent way
17:05
se6astian
manfred received the laser cut sample but no report about a test cut yet
17:05
se6astian
I assume you also got yours Bertl?
17:06
Bertl
yes, I received the plastic postcard ;)
17:06
Bertl
didn't get to test cut it either
17:07
se6astian
right :P
17:07
se6astian
cscar: any news from your side?
17:07
se6astian
do you want to share the first sample footage you captured already?
17:09
Bertl
there is sample footage?
17:11
se6astian
I saw pictures only
17:11
se6astian
vup/anuejn any news from your side?
17:11
se6astian
BAndiT1983 ?
17:11
vup
ah right
17:12
vup
not a lot to report
17:12
vup
pretty busy most week
17:12
vup
but I hopefully just pushed a commit that fixes the a / b frame synchronization issue in the recorder: https://github.com/apertus-open-source-cinema/axiom-recorder/commit/d078e67dd88e65398a2a5879c85e282123fce8fc
17:12
vup
it works for my test data
17:12
vup
but testing on hw is still tbd
17:13
vup
that pretty much it from the
17:14
se6astian
thanks, will test soon
17:14
se6astian
cscar: still on the phone?
17:14
cscar
No, just back.
17:15
cscar
I've finished the bookkeeping and did the tax returns for the last quarter of 2021.
17:16
cscar
And I've been busy with the beta ;)
17:17
cscar
I'm expecting parts for a power converter from 12v to 5V tomorrow or Wednesday.
17:18
cscar
The connector seems to come from Shanghai so I'll solder something myself in the meantime.
17:19
cscar
Plus, I'll try to get everything together for a RAW recorder this week.
17:20
se6astian
great
17:20
se6astian
what recorder hardware did you choose?
17:22
cscar
Well, that is my main question. It seems the Lattepanda Alpha 864s would still be the best option. But if you'd like me to try out something else (probably lower priced?) let me know.
17:23
se6astian
well any laptop would work if it has usb3 and fast SSD
17:23
se6astian
NUC as well but mobile power supply is a challenge there
17:24
se6astian
19V
17:25
cscar
Yes... V-mounts usually provide around 14.8V
17:26
se6astian
would need another DCDC converter
17:26
se6astian
the laptop has the battery already built in
17:29
cscar
And let's keep the form factor in mind. It would make sense if it would fit well as an attachment to the axiom enclosure.
17:30
se6astian
then lattepanda alpha it is
17:32
cscar
Yes, I guess so
17:34
cscar
BTW, I posted my first axiom still life on social media: https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=10217878412106190&set=pcb.10217878412586202

17:34
se6astian
lovely!
17:35
se6astian
can you send me a full res/uncompressed image for the website of these both please
17:35
se6astian
as this is perfect for the website content improvements
17:35
cscar
Actually the tidiest corner I could point the camera to to do some color tests ;)
17:36
cscar
Sure!
17:36
se6astian
then please film the most packed corner next :D
17:36
cscar
:D
17:38
cscar
That's it from me for now.
17:42
se6astian
right, thanks
17:42
se6astian
anyone else with topics/ideas/questions for the meeting?
17:42
cscar
Last thing: I'm making notes from my beta workflow. Perhaps it would be good to make a short version of the manual, like 'basic steps'. At first it the info could be overwhelming while the basics are pretty straight forward.
17:43
cscar
A quick setup guide for example.
17:43
se6astian
good idea
17:43
se6astian
a quickstart guide
17:44
se6astian
do you have a wiki account?
17:44
cscar
Great. I'll work on that and share my thoughts soon.
17:44
se6astian
good!
17:46
se6astian
then MEETING CONCLUDED, many thanks all participants!
17:47
cscar
Bye!
