hi
anyone uses the "new" apple intermediate hd codec ?
ive played around it with several formats on my mbp 2x2,33 ghz/4gb
and on my macpro 8x3ghz/8gb/x1900xt. here are my subjective results:
with the 8core ai really rocks, i can play files 4096x768 without drops
which never really worked with pjpg before !
also on the mbp it seems to run smoother, although the cpu usage seems
to be enormous since the fan is always on full power during playback
and the mbp gets really hot in seconds !
it seems to be a good alternative to pjpg, especially with enough
cpu power. you can access every frame with this codec (not like h264)
so its possible to jump,scrub,play backwards.
and it compresses to very small files with excellent quality !
so, does anyone use this codec already for m8,and whats your experience?
regards,
mike
