So I wouldn't be surprised languages had speed differences, and since we can't skip them anymore...
Martyste Tendertail
Nice idea to look at the files
Martyste Tendertail
Any other way would have been way too slow to figure out
AdrienTD
Yeah, also the audio compression used is IMA ADPCM, which apparently compresses the audio "4 to 1", dividing the size of uncompressed 16-bit sample audio by exactly 4.
AdrienTD
Thus the filesize should be pretty much proportional to the audio length.
AdrienTD
I'm not exactly sure though.
NoTeefy
Adrien I would suggest you to just record in the mkv format
NoTeefy
you can crop/rearrange and do other stuff with the container afterwards without the need of a new encoding^^
NoTeefy
you might wanna take a look at MKVToolnix. There are other simple programs that handle mkv containers but that one‘s probably the best from a programmers perspective. You can also use any commands over the command-line 👌🏼
AdrienTD
cool, I will try using MKV instead next time
AdrienTD
For this run I used FLV
NoTeefy
yeah the other big plus is that it won‘t corrupt your recording if something goes wrong during the record itself
NoTeefy
or atleast it shouldn‘t (not sure if OBS uses the fail-safe implementations on the mkv containers)
AdrienTD
yeah, FLV also doesn't corrupt
NoTeefy
that‘s true but mkv has even more advantages. You‘re not limited by anything, you could pack unlimited amount of audio tracks into it, also subtitles and whatsoever
NoTeefy
it‘s basically like a .zip as a video container and it implements all of the nice features other formats/containers should have had implemented for a long time already
NoTeefy
It‘s just the most advanced and dynamic one together with its little child webm
AdrienTD
But does MKV take more space than FLV?
AndreofHazel
@AdrienTD Perhaps but only by a little bit.
AdrienTD
Just did a test, there was no difference indeed.
