| Martyste Tendertail | 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. |
