• Please help me figure out what kind of av port is this, need a cable to connect to a videocapture device. Thanks.

  According to the manual the cable is a Samsung AD39-00119A. However, even if you find it you shouldn't use it. Video captured over composite cables is low quality. For MiniDV tapes you should use the top port on the camcorder which is a Firewire port. You need a 4 to 6 pin firewire cable and a Firewire PCIE card. I believe it may also be possible to go from Firewire to thunderbolt by using a Firewire 400 to... Source: 11 months ago

• Converting MiniDV to Digital

  If you're on Windows, you can add Firewire to a desktop via a PCIe expansion card - Startech make good ones. Capture can be done with Premiere or WinDV. Source: about 1 year ago

• How can I capture video on my computer with Sony DCR-PC 100 and FireWire?

  Yes, you can. On Windows, you can use WinDV or Scenalyzer to capture through FireWire. Source: over 1 year ago

• Enforcing VEGAS Video Capture to only capture DV tapes as 29.97i

  I think what I would do is try one of the other DV capture utilities. It's not like the quality is going to be any different - the results will be identical. The question is: do any of these still work? Well to my utter surprise, the WinDV site still exists and the software does apparently work on at least Windows 10. So I think I'd try that first.

• FFmpeg 7.0 Released

  The fact that Handbrake doesn't expose the same features as the ffmpeg CLI tool is frankly irrelevant. It's not just relevant, it's the whole thing. They asked for an ffmpeg GUI and someone recommended a GUI that doesn't use ffmpeg and doesn't do what ffmpeg can do. Ffmpeg can not only rewire channels, it can stream video, capture video from the screen, capture video from a tv tuner, overlay text etc. Also... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Week 13 Project Phase 2

  Hello everyone, welcome to week 13. This blog we are going to pick an open source software and locate the SIMD code from the source code of the software and then determine the SIMD code usage in a certain program. For my blog, I choose FFmpeg. FFmpeg is a cross-platform framework to record, convert, and stream video and audio, it provides an easy way to convert video and audio to other formats.

• I HATE NITRO I HATE NITRO

  Ffmpeg is a free (GPL) program and library that does pretty much everything video-related, from recording to editing. It has some learning curve for things beyond just converting a file 1:1, but as a library, many programs such as OBS, Blender, Shotcut, Drawpile and KDEnLive implements it for tasks such as rendering and recording videos out of them.
