#apertus IRC Channel Logs

and search

slikdigit: Yes something like that is plausible. Hence why it is critical to think through the logging side of applications

off to bed now ... have a good one everyone!

and the project format is xml so there's the possibility of converting to some standard EDL format

which... I guess you guys already probably know :)

Anything associated.

troy_s = PNG hater :)

cant do PNG, would be slow as hell

so the alpha tiff is just a plain tiff, or some extra metadata is necessary to treat it as mask channel?

danieel: Are you using it for lines?

also - is a lut common on 8 bit alphas? or we should aim for 16bits - its only for edges

but there is some water, so it is semitransparent

danieel: Sorry... This is for post then?

Bertl: Nope. Junk format. No one uses it. Don't care that they revised it.

danieel: Then you only need two formats. EXR and DPX. Keep your whole post pipe in EXR.

danieel: Once you are in EXR, at the head, stay there until the very end.

it is R3D for the video... that gets untouched, alpha is matched to it - so not sure how to call that input phase of post... but exr would do probably as well

the fact that many use it isn't any indication of the quality, no? just take GIF, which is probably the worst format ever (except for the microsoft bitmap format of course)

Bertl: No. No indication. Many say RGB is a colorspace. ;)

danieel: So you want to pull a key off water?

Bertl: So yes... Fitting example. :)

reference stills - like lossless

And if you are doing any sort of manipulation, that is what EXR was designed for. It extends well beyond that, of course.

*its

Brainer

(You could of course also go to DPX, then EXR as needed and leave untouched frames as DPX)

well compressible

Lossless yes.

EXRs can use three types IIRC.

As well as RLE and possibly others

That can certainly be an issue. You should design to your post pipe and make sure everyone understands it.

If all you have is a bunch of ProRes twiddlers, then you have to design to that.

No, but I am saying you are somewhat constrained by the others.

Oh yes. The joys of the cascading "Why!?!"

who do exr would merge the r3d an the tiffs to their packed exr

danieel you will like this on "Why" http://youtu.be/wMFPe-DwULM

The real issue is more complex

What are they comping in?

we do not care really, we create and supply the alpha data

Also note that the alpha is inherently bound to the RGB in an associated format. Hard to go back and forth without care.

there is no going back, the data is real world capture

sort of yes

if semitransparencies rate for complex then definitely

hello se6astian

it would be nice to see some random videos of different parts of the project.

developers eating a bowl of rice? :)

we will try to do more of this daily developer life in the future :)

davidak1: I'm currently eating my lunch :)

though cooking it would have been more interesting to film? :)

but you have to be quick, it's almost gone

+1 for an unedited video of the first Beta case being milled :)

off for a nap ... bbl

greetings from liberated greece :P

hello!

among other things. you disagree?

what are you talking about

back now ...

time for bed

good night!
