      That isn't true. You think so only because you have heard these information before or you're kind of acquited with it even if you didn't fully get it. I, for example, understood everything in the capture codec almost effortlessly, I know what bits and pixel means and everything. But when he started talking about frames, I totally zoomed out.

    A quick explanation/visual(think audio bit depth) of how colors are "summed" would make this incredible video even better. THANK YOU!

    • @BandH
      @BandH  5 лет назад

      With 8-bit video file formats each color channel will have a variation of 256 shades per channel. The resulting combination of 256 shades each of red, green and blue means that there are 16,777,216 (256 x 256 x 256) possible colors. When you move up to 10-Bit you have 1,024 shades per channel, which when multiplied in the same way equals 1,073,741,824 possible colors.
      Thanks!

    Just a clarification, on a Canon camera while recording, All-i is the intra frame and IPB is the inter frame compression?

    • @BandH
      @BandH  3 года назад +2

      Canon has added two compression formats- Interframe (IPB) and Intraframe (ALL-I) in the new generation mid and high-end EOS DSLR featuring DIGIC 5+ Digital Image Processor.
      IPB and ALL-I are essentially different methods of compressing movie files. There are varied benefits to using either IPB or ALL-I compression configurations. Videographers can choose the compression format base on shooting subjects and post production need. >Mark

    • @BandH
      @BandH  8 лет назад +2

      Gross or RAW bitrate is the total number of physically transferred bits per second over a communication link, including useful data as well as protocol overhead. RAW bitrate will vary depending upon the camera or recorder or its available settings. Please contact us via e-mail if you have additional questions: askbh@bandh.com >Mark

    • @welshsteve2009
      @welshsteve2009 5 лет назад +2

      Ummm, maybe a little disambiguation going on there Bojan Dancuo?
      CODEC in video terms is Compression/Decompression where data is compressed to create reduced and more manageable file sizes before being decompressed for playback.
      However, CODEC in terms of transmission/streaming (Code/Decode) may include encryption of the data for security or the transformation of data (e.g. analogue signals to digita signals).

    Nit picking. A codec cannot be compressed. A codec is the algorithm that is applied to the video/audio signal coming in. It's the data that can be compressed using a codecs compression algorithm, when present.
