Re: [Debconf-video] Report from last week-end's single-user single-day DebConf Video sprint



There is a big step from Analog 480p30 to Digital 720p30 -- specially for technical slides which are full of text.

The step up from 720p30 to 1080p30 *is* better, however it is nowhere near the same perceptual quality increase of the previous step and it increases the bandwidth and processing power required significantly.

The step up from 1080p60 to 4k30 is unnoticeable for our presenting use case and the resources requirements are huge. We are much better investing in improving the audio quality.

FYI The Opsis could be used at 1080p30 if your projector supports that (It doesn't however support 1080p60 on the HDMI ports without a lot of hacks which I have not had the time to do).

I used to say the same about DV ("thats all we need") but after having seen several
cccongress videos in 1080p I must say, higher resolution *is* better.

Both for videos with many small details as well as for "boring videos" where you
only see the speaker…

So I can imagine doing DebConf videos in 4k by now :)
