This might be a stupid question, but does the extension update automatically?
This is the rapid prototyping phase, and I don't really care enough to keep updating it manually every 3 hours.

Yes, Chrome updates extensions automatically. I have this extension installed since I'm a nerd who likes to keep track of that stuff.

I just found a irremediable flaw in this whole thing: I can no longer right-click on an animation file and select "search this image with google".
Fuck this.

It should, I don't believe chrome even lets you manually check for extension updates unless you switch something in the config.

How much of a problem does the CPU usage introduce?

jhahahahah YES
Screen cap. There's always a workaround.

magnificent.
I'm waiting for a retort from our other gi... webm master.
Yeah, but I have to upload it to the Internet for it to work; it's a pain.

How does everyone seem to get 60fps on the online video converter site? I try to make it 60, but it says it stops at 30 (unless another way has to be used?). Also, what's the best bitrate to do for best quality?
You don't have to upload it. Just take a screen cap, use paint to crop it and drag the image onto google's image search bar.

I don't know if it's the file format, the extension or the browser, but several of them aren't working for me. They're just black images; I have to refresh to make them work, and even then, it's not a sure-proof thing.
I didn't know this. I'll try it.

I am and it's got better image quality with smaller file size.
Can you point me to the ffmpeg VP9 documentation/tutorial?

Can someone explain how this differs from h.265?

GAF you guys are going to kill my laptop
off the top of my head (and some guesswork)
* no licensing issues
* faster, less CPU/GPU, lower memory (most likely)
At the expense of absolute quality versus h.265 though.

After seeing those woman in WebM I can't help but feel like we are flying to close to the sun.
Like we have found a new wonder drug only to find out 3 weeks later it causes your genitals to fall off.
its coming.. mark my words.
its too good to be true.

The GOAT.
I wouldn't really be concerned about hardware acceleration. It doesn't make much sense to say "h264 has all the hardware decoding, so we shouldn't use anything else".. for one, all the mobile hardware out there will sunset in as little as 3 years. If VP8/9 get a sudden push from a ton of content, the hardware will add support for acceleration and it'll be standard in a minimum amount of time.
For PCs, it'd just take a driver update to the graphics chipsets and now you have full hardware decoded VP_ video, and the next waves would have chips or whatever dedicated to decoding it.

And in firefox anyway, you can take a screen capture directly from the right click menu.
I'm still taking babysteps in FFmpeg (and I don't know much at all about video encoding in general) but here's what I currently use to get the absolute highest webm quality. So, basically ihavenoideawhatimdoing.jpg.
ffmpeg -i input.avi -c:v libvpx-vp9 -crf 0 -b:v max output.webm
-libvpx-vp9 = Encoding with the Google VP9 codec
-crf 0 = Constant Rate Factor lossless (use higher values for lower quality)
-b:v max (I've currently really no idea, but I think max outputs the highest bit rate possible, since it is very high.) Someone wiser please, lecture me on this.
That string produces 3x file size increase compared to the stuff I posted earlier with only a slight IQ improvement. But hey... it's the highest quality! Thinking of using crf4 or 3 from now on, though.

I'll ask this here as I don't want to create a thread about it and Google did not prove useful.
For the past two months or so, Chrome for Mac has been sporadically starting in full screen mode when I open it. Not always; it seems to be random, as I haven't noticed a pattern.
Does anybody have a clue as to why and how I can make it stop ?

This is completely broken for me, I get the sound and the first frame, but it doesn't play and the timestamp reads 5:25:00

It works for me. Not suppose to get sound idk. I am using VLC to convert this stuff, so it does something

Still busted, can anyone else confirm this? Or is it just me?

Same here.
And for some reason, quite a few webm clips on here show up as blank black rectangles. :/ Chrome here.

Same. Black screen, timecode skips to 5:47 when starting, can't pauze or otherwise interact afterwards.
Do they play when you open in a tab?
DirgeExtinction
Member
Nope. :/
Can you quote some of the broken ones for you? If they are from 4chan that would explain it, since the threads they get posted in get deleted after a while.
People don't quite get that and post links to them.
Using VLC gives these crazy timestamps.
I fucking love these URLs.
