[QUOTE=Mingebox;44482684]Pretty obvious it's pronounced "Web'm". "Web-em" is for casuals.[/QUOTE] Dude, it's pronounced "weebum". Rhymes with "sebum". [editline]7th April 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=Electrocuter;44481999]Unfortunately it doesn't loop, I'm guessing it's because Facepunch doesn't auto-play them. garry please[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure they used to auto-play, or at least play on hover, and people got annoyed with that because of the audio. 4chan bans files with audio so auto-play works there.
I've never heard of this Webm format before but hot damn this is such an improvement except you have to manually play the files

[QUOTE=lavacano;44482714]iOS uses Safari, and last I was aware Safari took the h264 side along with IE.[/QUOTE] webm works on ios you just have to tap each individual video and you can't have 100 embedded on one page like gif
[QUOTE=nikomo;44483374]No, YouTube literally refuses to provide anything but 720p and 360p content if you're using HTML5 without Media Source Extensions. 1080p and 480p are unavailable if you're using HTML5, on YouTube, on Firefox.[/QUOTE] That must be a recent change then, because the only thing that originally removed quality options was disabling DASH playback. I was always able to get all quality settings before (but I only use 360p so I wouldn't have noticed if they went missing).
oh my god /gif/ can now be the greatest porno place ever
[QUOTE=POLOPOZOZO;44484221]oh my god /gif/ can now be the greatest porno place ever[/QUOTE] No lie, /gif/ is the first place I went after hearing this.
[vid]https://googledrive.com/host/0BxzpfeJvY4svV0ZIVldmMTUxYWs[/vid] I converted a 1080p gif I made to webm and the size went from 28mb to 5mb.
[QUOTE=POLOPOZOZO;44484221]oh my god /gif/ can now be the greatest porno place ever[/QUOTE] /gif/ is dead. Long live /webm/.
[QUOTE=Why485;44483482][vid]http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/15133164/20140405_141952.webmsd.webm[/vid] From last weekend's air show. It's a flyby of a P-51, P-38, and F-22. Webm is pretty nice. Apparently this doesn't work on Firefox? I have no idea why.[/QUOTE] Hey, you were at Sun n Fun? I went there sunday for free since my work had a tent ( two actually). And all these videos seem to be running smoothly on this single core x86 windows tablet i just picked up.

And all these videos seem to be running smoothly on this single core x86 windows tablet i just picked up.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I was there most of the day Saturday. It was pretty great and I saw a lot of things I hadn't seen before. The F-22 demo was amazing.
[QUOTE=aussiedropbear;44483691][VID]http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/4unxw4r4nsilbsq/facepunch-is-gay.webm[/VID] 2.92MB[/QUOTE] This is where you see that high framerate + a bit of motion blur = fucking awesome (motion blur also helps compressability a fair bit)
[QUOTE=.Lain;44481491]and i just realised you can save them, fucking awesome. now i just need an image viewer with webm support and i'm set[/QUOTE] Irfanview supports webm. [editline]8th April 2014[/editline] [vid]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5805916/Images/webm/armrang.webm[/vid] I love making these, so easy too.
[QUOTE=nikomo;44480715][vid]http://img.nikomo.fi/1396898985122.webm[/vid] I really hope WebM gets more popular now, this is awesome. Also, no fucking Flash when playing WebM, that's the major benefit, I still haven't bothered to find a way to make YouTube videos that are embedded on websites use the VLC browser plugin instead of Flash, but I have it setup for YouTube itself, and it's great on this low-end Linux-running laptop.[/QUOTE] I've had to turn Flash off when browsing Facepunch, trying to play any video instantly freezes my browser.

[video=youtube;blSzwPcL5Dw]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blSzwPcL5Dw[/video] Relevant to the topic (webm has inter-frame compression)
Hopefully WebM finally gets widespread support, it would have been nice to have APNG be a stepping stone to it, but the Blink/Chrome developers are lazy bastards. (Also, APNG is best format)
WebM avatars please
If anyone is using XMedia Recode, can you take a picture of some ideal settings for high quality but with a 3mb limit? I see super high quality shit a lot but I can barely make a 4 second video look mildly good.
Some more vids/new gifs Footage of Mario Kart 8, 60fps, 3.10MB. [vid]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16364552/webm/kotaku_5527.webm[/vid] [URL="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16364552/webm/KZSF_HIGHTBITRATE_H264.webm"]And also Killzone Shadowfall 1080p, 60fps. It's 16.5MB. I didn't try hard to make the size low but this is about half of the whole clip, and that was 500+ MB.[/URL]
[QUOTE=mchapra;44482616]This one? [VID]http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/29209413/1396797079340.webm[/VID] [editline]a[/editline] nvm, i'm dumb and didnt notice you said the exact time.[/QUOTE] How come when I play Battlefield I easily get 60+ fps, but it never looks as smooth as this video?
[QUOTE=Why485;44483482] Apparently this doesn't work on Firefox? I have no idea why.[/QUOTE] They used to, but Mozilla changed something a while back and now unless the site specifies some shit about MIME types, you can't embed webm, dropbox doesn't specify it so you have to open the video manually
-snip nvm-

[QUOTE=rakker;44485571]How come when I play Battlefield I easily get 60+ fps, but it never looks as smooth as this video?[/QUOTE] because it does.
webm avatars pls Maybe then I could get something that looks good and is longer than 2 seconds long
[QUOTE=rakker;44485571]How come when I play Battlefield I easily get 60+ fps, but it never looks as smooth as this video?[/QUOTE] motion blur probably got added in
WebmTube when
[QUOTE=kaze4159;44485577]They used to, but Mozilla changed something a while back and now unless the site specifies some shit about MIME types, you can't embed webm, dropbox doesn't specify it so you have to open the video manually[/QUOTE] Mozilla and Chrome just can't get along, both have their own preffered formats, and ways to go about things. If Blink and Mozilla would just support Animated WebP and/or APNG, and worry about WebM support later; it would be great.
Edit: WebP is stupid, "Animated WebP" even more so. [QUOTE=kaze4159;44485577]They used to, but Mozilla changed something a while back and now unless the site specifies some shit about MIME types, you can't embed webm, dropbox doesn't specify it so you have to open the video manually[/QUOTE] Yeah, you actually have to specify it's a video, sites were claiming they were text files or applications and expecting Firefox to play them anyway (Because Chrome did) Relying on the browser to guess the format only leads to issues (Like how IE would execute JavaScript in text files), but server admins love to be lazy.
