Q: We're not interested in capture, but transcoding to/from FFV1.Īlmost every codec that the FFmpeg libraries support: That's a very long list )Īnd others that are available as Video for Windows (VfW) codec. Since the majority of archives are still Windows users, we are hoping that making FFV1 more accessible to them also makes it easier for others to use FFV1 :)

Adding the desired features to VirtualDub will provide a useful solution almost immediately. On the other hand, VirtualDub is well known, stable and has been around for almost 2 decades now. This is a very good thing, but will still take more resources and time until it is finished, tested and stable for production use. There are plans by BAVC (and existing prototypes) for a capture application GUI for preservation that supports FFV1 directly as part of QCTools.

Institutions that contribute 1000 Euros or more will receive 1 month of free 1st level support.Īfter we've reached our funding goal, excessive funds will be used for further developing and improving the open source archiving ecosystem. Of course we are very grateful for every donation (or users helping out with testing on different equipment). If you want to support us, we humbly suggest 500 to 1000 Euros per institution, as we think this would be a fair amount for the work done on the related projects. Overall, we believe the community will benefit a lot from these enhancements.

Also supports: V210, H.264, ProRes, DPXĪll of these enhancements will be made available under the Open Source / Free Software license (GNU GPLv2).Īdditionally, those developments will allow for all features of VirtualDub and it's Plugins to be available for editing.Therefore we've teamed up with Anton Shekhovtshov: the developer of VirtualDub FilterMod (vdfiltermod) to fill in the missing bits and pieces.

Yet, there is currently no graphical user interface that is easy to use, supports all features of FFV1 and is designed for digital archiving. The number of institutions using FFV1 is growing and it is in the process of establishing itself as an open standard for long term preservation. All thanks to project-related funding (and volunteers). Since then, the ecosystem around FFV1 has also been greatly improved by applications such as FFmpeg/ LibAV, QCTools, MediaConch, etc. The result was "FFV1.3" (FFV1 version 3). One example is the lossless video codec "FFV1":Īlthough existing since 2006, its widespread adoption was not until we've raised funding to test and improve it for long-term-preservation.

You can download Virtualdub2 for free (=CentOS), but if you want tested versions with support you can buy subscriptions (=Redhat) from us. Therefore, we now offer a "Redhat/CentOS"-like model: It is already used in production since July 2017 by some sponsors without problems.Īlthough the crowdfunding only reached 2/3 of its goal, we still wanted the improvements to go back upstream.

The development of the "Virtualdub FFV1" version is completed and stable for more than a year now :) UPDATE: Current Status (November 11th, 2018) This is a fundraising campaign for adding a long desired missing puzzle piece to the ecosystem of FFV1:Īn application (for Windows, based on VirtualDub) that allows not only to capture directly to FFV1, but also transcoding to/from other popular formats with an easy to use graphical user interface (GUI).
