Masures video codec (Split)

Post by AF »

Masure, why did you post in a format like mkv? Either way the videos borked, it caused my work computer to BSOD twice, the first time Ive ever seen a computer at work BSOD.

You exude an aura of computer failure with regards to video.

Nope, just commenting on the fact that you have issues of some sort or another with pretty much every single video posted here :P

VLC bluescreening sounds very much like a gpu driver issue.

Mkv is an efficient container for video/audio streams.

A comp at work should be use to work and I'm not responsible of its failness concerning video playback.

And no I won't post my videos on noobtube.

Videos should be encoded in formats that as many people can view as possible, its common sense lol.

For example, it is arguably easier to upload to you tube than it is to ftp it and get the link and put it in the post. Then it can be viewed everywhere even mobile phones! There's also vimeo etc, and god forbid, avi + zip files!! Or even xvid/divx!!

For all you knew, I could have known about a fix for that but couldn't see the video and thus never knew. Bug reports should eb as helpful as possible!

xvid is a very common video codec; if you can't play it your computer has issues.

No. People should be able to view videos in a good format. Standards shouldn't be defined by average people mediocrity.

mkv != xvid

Perhaps but we do not live in an ideal world, in such a world, everybody would need only a single codec for an omgwtf uber high quality low filesize format. Until then formats such as xvid/divx or youtube/web videos are the way to go.

MKV is a universal container.
Masure's video's codec is xvid.

I'm glad you agree with him?

VLC has its shortcomings. Use kmplayer and be happy.

I know about the mkv format, and my statement still holds mkv != xvid, and in future I wont be uploading to youtube. I would recommend you focus on solving bugs rather than attacking me in future.

You were the first (and the only one) to point the video format out when people were discussing about issues solving.

Stop clutching at straws, I don't care.

MKV rocks! Either the splitter is causing bluescreens, which I doubt, or the video codec which is unrelated to the container.

I wish more players played mkv rather than throwing errors as soon as they see the file extension
