OK, here's a first draft - I left it running to proced a file that I
could potentially share with people. I'm clearly not going to copy
17 GB to you! :)<br>
<br>
wget this file (I would advise against looking in a browser):<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.plug.org.au/video/2011/IPv6-talk-1pass-slower-28.mp4">http://www.plug.org.au/video/2011/IPv6-talk-1pass-slower-28.mp4</a><br>
<br>
It's 245,184,261 bytes. Then if you have time and want to make it
better, send me an SSH key and I'll get you on to Av2 - the "Brad
Cambell" AMD64 box we got together - its now installed and comes in
at just over 4000 bogomips - dual core, 4 GB ram, 75 GB SCSI disk. I
can copy the DV file on there, and you can use whatever tools you
want to filter & process this file!<br>
<br>
If no one can be bothered, then the file I have becomes the final
copy and we move on! :)<br>
<br>
Things I noted;<br>
<ul>
<li>The new camera we bought does seem to flicker a lot in the
resulting video, as we noticed on the night. Don't know if it
needs maintenance on the camera (perhaps contact the
manufacturer)? Tim, how did you go with disabling demo mode, and
anything else you've discovered?</li>
<li>Our audio does still suck. As does the copy Gary had (I had a
listen to a sample). </li>
<li>The LinuxOutlaws podcasts talks about buzz on using on-board
audio inputs, and recommends using a USB audio input so that
your line in isn't anywhere near the laptop power circuit.<br>
</li>
</ul>

file to my little Revo box, and he's happily encoding using
Jason's magic command line from an earlier post. I couldn't
get the hqdn3d filter to work, so I dropped that one and
proceeded. It's currently processing at 3fps; given 118k
frames, that's 11 hours until it completes this encoding to
MP4 (it's not a fast box being an Atom, but it can sit there
doing it all day while I try and work).<br>

The filters depend on how the video comes through, the hqdn3d
filter is good if there is low light (and therefore the image
is a bit grainy), otherwise it's best without it. Generally
the yadif (de-interlace) and unsharp (sharpen) filters are
good though.<br>

I'd recommend quitting the encoding so that you can watch it
and ensure the quality is OK (for some reason i can't play the
files unless I quit and it writes something special to the
file - dunno). Finding the sweet spot "-crf" for the
lighting/conditions etc... I think 28 is the starting point
but may need lower if there is more action and especially
check the slides are readable.<br>
