MSU Lossless video codec - the best LS codec ;)

[DmitriyV]

MSU Lossless Video Codec published!

Giving the best compression ratio in the lossless video compression
field! (If any codec compress better - please send it to us!

This codec is intended for lossless video compression (used for saving master copies or intermediate rendering results).

The project is in beta-version stage. Good results in compression are already achieved, now working on codec's speed.

Free installer avalable from:
http://www.compression.ru/video/ls-codec/index_en.html

Enjoy!

If it's truly lossless, that'll rock the video world 8)

Please, check! Installer it's free! It also has a lossy modes but all comparison (and charts) was in fully lossless mode.

Very interesting. However, I tend not to support anything from Michigan State University. Sorry, an old "college thing."

It has built in Temporal denoising and Spatial denosing!

What that means? It means that (in theory) you can capture and at the same time filter what you capture.
My first tests show me results like the dynamic noise reduction ( value at 6 ) and 2D cleaner optimised ( Values 8 - 1 - 1)
Not bad at all!

The Medium compression reminds me Huffyuv ...
The High compression reminds me PicVideo after slighty filtering!

I wish to see the speed version of your codec. It's going to be 5 to 10 times faster. Now it drops frames like hell in my system (when use for capture)

On a P4 2.4 with 1GB RAM it dropped almost 300 frames in 10 seconds using either VVCR or iuVCR. None of my other codecs drop frames.

Maybe it gets its "best compression ratio" by not capturing 99% of the frames

Seriously, this needs to at least not drop frames in order to be useful.

I don't believe that they have in mind capturing the way we do...

Maybe the next version could do capture,but I don't believe CPUs less than 2Ghz will ever able to handle it!

I'm going to have to agree with you on that one. I've been transfering via fire wire with no dropped frames with DV quality. For me to give that up, you'll have to come to me when you have something.

Do I take any old avi file and test this codec with it? I tried in VirtualDub and it said it would take 49 days to render a 7 minute video. 1 frame every 2 seconds...
