[_] SotD in under 10MB AMM !AMM.FiWTOc 04/20/14(Sun)10:42 No.2356941
I was... intrigued by the Monty Pythons fitted into a 10MB flash, so I tried what I could do!
Behold! Shaun of the Dead (2004) in:
- Video: 128 x 54 h.264 @ 4Kbp/s and a whopping 3 frames per second
- Audio: 32Khz Mono AAC-HE @ 1Kbps (I think? There might be a lot of overhead)
The video was awfully near 10Mb, but thankfully DEFLATE took care of that (/f/ why no LZMA).
I added some crude seeking (unless I'm mistaken, there are 250 keyframes) and subs since that was
easy.
You can also right-click to save the FLV itself, but at least VLC has some trouble showing
anything, so use something else OR DOWNLOAD THE BD YOU MANIAC.

This is a very interesting idea, and while it definitely inspires me to question why moot
shouldn't raise the flash sizes beyond 10MB, it's incredible what kind of things can be created
despite limitations. Great work!

Thanks! Some credit to the anon who came up with the idea.
20Mb flashes would be absolutely fantastic.
While it would increase the amount of straight video-into-swf shit, you could do so much more.
Even 15Mb would help a lot.
But on the other hand, limitations give the lovely challenge.

This reminds me of the old videogame design and programming where people had to work with the
limitations of cartridges.
Fucking inspiring. Cudos to the guy that came up with the idea, I must've missed the Holy Grail
flash.

The first one, I presume? The encoding will take some time, but maybe an hour and a half?
Most of the stuff is already done.

I just had ffmpeg and wanted to see what all I could do.
Also, 'swftools', specifically 'swfcombine', can be used to do flash MX compression.
swfcombine -dz <uncompressed file input> -o <output compressed file>

What exactly did you use to make a progress bar and everything? I was just using ffmpeg and
really wanted these.

Subtitles are a nice touch.
Have you considered maybe doing the video as a series of images updated every few seconds,
instead of "5 Jagerbomb-O-Vision" ?

Seriously, what tool did you use for the seeking and the subtitles? I really want to know.

well at that point you might as well turn it into an audiobook

I coded them myself! The subs are parsed from real .srt subs which I timeshifted to fit the cut
movie.
Seeking the embedded bytearray (this is not your basic VP6 FLV on a timeline, you know) was a tad
harder since ffmpeg doesn't add the keyframe metadata by default.
>>2357014
I could drop the FPS down to 2, 1, or even less, but I'd rather drop the video altogether and
have proper audio since the quality won't be that great. And hey, fits the movie?
>> [_] Anonymous 04/20/14(Sun)12:28 No.2357020
>>2357018
Yeah, I did add keyframes when I did my rick roll and with 'big lebowski'. But I've found if you
don't need the scrolling, the keyframes just add size. But how did you LZMA them? swftools
doesn't do that.
>> [_] AMM !AMM.FiWTOc 04/20/14(Sun)12:34 No.2357022
>>2357020
Flash itself has DEFLATE or LZMA as the compression, but the LZMA compressed swf was rejected as
corrupted.
It's not the video keyframes I added (of course h.264 has those!) but the metadata where they
are; time and byte position. Seeking in the middle of a frame doesn't work; you have to land at
the keyframe.

also, it's cool and all. How did you get h.264 into the .swf? my build of FFmpeg doesn't allow
h.264 in a swf file.

It did take some time before I figured it out, but check out [Embed()], Video and
