Almost forgot...
I mentioned that with GVJ I playback megasize uncompressed w/alpha and that is awesome.
Unfortunately, megasize means multi-gigabyte files.
Resolume is not as forgiving as GVJ in terms of acceptable file formats.
I have done some initial testing of my megasize files but rerendered them with the DXV codec w/alpha
using resolume-3 for playback. The file sizes are wayyyyy smaller now - almost like H.264 file sizes.
My initial HD layering tests of resolume-3 and DXV codec w/alpha resulted in spectacular results - scary nice!
I plan to do further testing to estimate how "lossy" the DXV codec is... but again, so far, scary nice and fast.
I will forget about GVJ if I can do seamless switching/linking between clips... DXV is sweet and Resolume-4 has beautiful interface... I really want to switch to R4.
thanx for listening.
