Best Letus35+reel-stream footage ever at DVinfo.net

Obin Olson · October 7th, 2005, 04:33 PM

it's going to take about 2 hours to upload, and it's using the bitjazz.com codec but this should be the best 35mmLetus reel-stream.com footage ever seen on the net...make sure you have the bitjazz.com codec installed to view, and the file is 148megs!

give it 2 hours to upload on our ftp

dv3productions.com/HD_dvx/Letus35_SHEERIVDEO.avi

let me know your thoughts! and don't harp on me for the "spot" in the image, it's only dirt on the glass ;)

Dmitry Yun · October 7th, 2005, 11:06 PM

Would love to see the footage but says error with the codec installed. Is there a way you could post a different codec please?

Obin Olson · October 7th, 2005, 11:24 PM

it's AVI for PC and you MUST have the bitjazz.com free PLAYER codec installed to view...

www.bitjazz.com

this is as close to a RAW HD file as you will get, the sheer codec is used for DI work on lots of stuff. it's great

Obin,
Looks like noone can veiw your clip even after installing the codec.

I am confused however, the clip in an avi, to play in media player, right? But the codecs on bitjazz.com seem to be for quicktime player. i tried playing the file in quicktime also but no luck.

Please give more info about installing and what player to use, we are very interested.

Thanks,
Wayne.

Well, the free reader is the only thing I can figure out to download. And that doesn't install on a non english Windows XP. The manual installation only mention how to installl the plugin into Quicktime. It looks as it's only the beta that supports AVI or?

Looks like a codec with lots of potential. Installs on Mac and PC. But can't play your movie after install. Maybe your encoding got screwed up (I can play the sheervideo stuff on their website OK).

I also just installed their encoder (20-day trial). My original file was 230 MB. After encoding with sheer, twice (2 different settings), it's now at 462 MB, and there's a huge gamma shift (not what I'd call "perfect" by any stretch.)

With H264, no visual change in picture, and file size went from 230 MB to 13 MB. Downside is, it takes a lot longer to compress. But that's because it does such a great job . . .

hmmm...well....h264 is mac only right?

Steven Fokkinga · October 8th, 2005, 11:55 AM

No, it comes with Quicktime 7, which is available on PC as well...

Can't get the sheervideo to play either... , but I would be interested to see it in a lossless codec, could you try to make a .mov in the sheervideo codec please?

Thnx, Steven

Obin Olson · October 8th, 2005, 11:57 AM

for the people that have installed the sheervideo codec, what happens when you try and play the file?
