Glowstick Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 And another one... Why not take a chill pill tom? I bet me being a fairly new member and saying something like that would get me banned. Does the notion "Point of no return" tell you something? General stupidity on these forums pushed me far beyond it in the past. And no, I won't quit this board. I like it, I just can't stand a part of its population, being those are ****ing stupid and unable to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glowstick Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 I am a sysadmin that has to fix stupid peoples pseudo-problems at work, I'm always in a bad mood by default thanks to that. But my bad mood doesn't affect my standing to the type of folks around here that are always asking for the type of compression though it has been stated multiple times that it's generated content on whatever spot in this thread. I'm sorry, but my tolerance for part-time dyslexics is pretty low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jami_welch Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 okok before i get shouted at by tom id just like to say that i no its not being compressed and that wasmy mate typin a sec a go soz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwilson Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 (edited) Thanks to [saint dark], SMeK, LAD and Tom Servo for explaining how it works. I knew it wasn't a compression algorithm that made that possible (no compression algorithm I know of gets a 30000:1 compression ratio) but I didn't know what it was.

Glowstick Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 Creating an algo that does 30000:1 is pretty impossible. There have been multiple idiot companies that claimed 2000:1 and more codecs, yet noone ever delivered proof, they preferred to poof. Other people claimed to have a 3megs compressed archive of the whole WinXP ISO (*cough* Shotta35 *cough*), though it's mathematically proven that such lossless ratios aren't possible on random data due lack of redundancy. Don't start with 600megs of zeroes compressed to an archive, or else I'll smack you! Also lossy codecs dont allow unlimited gains, because you can't substitute data with nothing. There's always a minimum amount of data involved, however claiming crystal clear and sharp video with just 32bytes per frame for both video and audio is simply impossible, however some foolish dutch claimed to have made such a codec.

Coolme Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 correct me if I am wrong but basically that 64 kb was just a bunch of commands for the computer to create these image and sounds, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
