FixStars Realtime Cell Encoder Samples :)

They also gonna present a Consumer Encoder on the PS3 @ NAB see news (though they show only ~1 minute the problematic scenes aren't shown this way :P ) i wonder if they reused anything from x264 ;) (being very near @ OSS see yellowdog linux) you can also Online Encode something :D here (on the Cloud) (be aware upload speed is slow depending if your location is outside of Asia)

Checking it out, but not expecting a whole lot :) ~MiSfit

I have uploaded a video clip to do online encode, the video clip was used in the leadtek pxvc1100 test and convert to yuv i420 ( the file size is 1.08GB @_@). performance: profile/level: hp 3.0 b-frame:2 slice:4 1000kbps fast 29.80 s 1500kbps fast 30.56 s 2000kbps fast 29.31 s 2500kbps fast 29.03 s 3000kbps fast 31.10 s 3500kbps fast 29.70 s 4000kbps fast 30.41 s CodecSys Trial VBR HP3.0 Y-SSIM (avg,2230 frames) 1000 kbps 0.942234318 1500 kbps 0.958717494 2000 kbps 0.966834899 2500 kbps 0.971830425 3000 kbps 0.97554094 3500 kbps 0.978308054 4000 kbps 0.980634944

Jep it looks really interesting vs a GPU solution the Cell is really made for this :) if this really works out the PS3 could recive a major bump up in Sales after it's Quality and usability gets confirmed in June :) but you shouldn't forget it needs to beat x264 on a CPU :) 1.2 realtime can also easily done with x264 @ i would say lower power output and to what i saw Codecsys has no AQ yet so it seems not in the state of HVS enhancements x264 gone through the years (not even wanna talk about missing Psy-RD or a similiar concept like Ateme and Mainconcept have also developed). Though i guess using the PS3 Cell should have some more Encoding Power then a SpursEngine consumer card :). So Fixstars Encoder is still a smal Child that maybe has alot of Power behind it's back but the Quality is what counts for most and here i see lack of development time on Fixstars side to compete with the other solutions yet :) Unless they buildup the core from x264 then i guess they could in no time also port all the HVS stuff over to it and then it becomes really interesting :D It's funny to see they using MPC-HC on that Presentation :P i guess they also lurk arround Doom9 and look @ x264 development alot ;)

that's a little crazy :P how much power that consumes together geez :P you could use that PC alone and save alot of Power with using x264 with the right settings also this doesn't look very advanced to me @ all. though there is another tab mybe their some HVS settings are hiding :)

It's all about quality@perf, quality@watt, and quality@1U.

Dark Shikari: Can you give us some hardware info? CPU, mainly. Just curious :)

<- uses the pro encoder core (which hopefully sometime finds it way into badaboom)

I tired codecsys CE-10 with my copy of bladerunner blu-ray. How do you get it to do the audio (5.1 AC3 in this case) file as it only seems to do .wav. It encodes the 1080P FAST but with no audio.
