ffmpeg2theora - BAD keyframe interval

From the source code, "ffmpeg2theora" by default puts the value of keyframe interval at 64 (for one-pass mode) and 256 (for two-pass mode).

No video is transcoded well.

After experimenting with some values (while having a lot of pain with blocky OGV outputs), according to my experience the default value should simply be 16, for either pass.

It doesn't matter whether you have VERY HIGH video-bitrates. If you have these default values for keyframe interval, your videos will have pixelation.

Sigh!

LZW implementation with Qt5

One simple implementation ... just for fun ...

Please refactor as you like ...

Open file with Unicode name

It turns out to be rather simple ...


void f(wchar_t const*p){
char l[0x1000];
memset(l,0,0x1000);
wcstombs(l,p,0xFFF);
FILE*F=fopen(l,"rb");/*Open normally .. =D */

/*Et cetera ... */
fclose(F);/*Remember to close*/
}

My naming convention

I developed it because it really helps. To me, this is the ergonomics of coding. But, I have yet to demonstrate the same good results in other people's projects ...

A non-comprehensive non-formal guide:

[functions inside class/struct/namespace]
f- mutator, non-static, trivial
u- mutator, non-static, non-trivial*
g- accessor, non-static, trivial
k- accessor, non-static, non-trivial
s- mutator, static, trivial
w- mutator, static, non-trivial
q- accessor, static, trivial
x- accessor, static, non-trivial

*(requires calculation, might cause side-effect (such as (but not limited to - ) change of other member variables, change of global variables)

[functions outside class/struct/namespace] (Notice that it is virtually symmetrical with the ones above)
_f_- mutator, non-static, trivial
_u_- mutator, non-static, non-trivial
_g_- accessor, non-static, trivial
_k_- accessor, non-static, non-trivial
_s_- mutator, static, trivial
_w_- mutator, static, non-trivial
_q_- accessor, static, trivial
_x_- accessor, static, non-trivial

p- - parameter
l- - local variable 
-b- - of boolean type
-c- - a threaded function, which runs asynchronously
o_- - macro
_h- - throws exception

m- - member, non-static
n- - member, static
c- - member, const, static
t- - type
-t- - template
tu- - type, union
tv- - type, polymorphic
ta- - type, empty, non-instantiatable, used as an interface
-r- - recursive (calls itself)

[Computer graphics]
to- - type, polymorphic, tangible instantiatable object, obeys engine's physics
th- - type, polymorphic, intangible instantiatable object, defies engine's physics
tk- - type, component, not polymorphic

[Data type]
t1u - 1 byte, unsigned integer
t1s - 1 byte, signed integer
t2u - 2 bytes, unsigned integer
t2s - 2 bytes, signed integer
t4u - 4 bytes, unsigned integer
t4s - 4 bytes, signed integer
t8u - 8 bytes, unsigned integer
t8s - 8 bytes, signed integer
t4f - 4 bytes, float
t8f - 8 bytes, float
tpu - address, unsigned (size_t)
tps - address, signed (ssize_t)
t1k - 1 byte, character
t2k - 2 bytes, character (char16_t)
t4k - 4 bytes, character (char32_t)
twk - wchar_t
tuk - TCHAR (an ASCII char or wchar_t, depending on user's setting)
tSQ - t1k const*
tUQ - tuk const*
