@cbrandin many thanks for your explanation of what can possibly happen in that situation. Its been bugging me for a while as to what actually happens, I thought the whole frame rate dropped. I had some shots I took with the 66M GOP3 that would display the same behaviour of breaking the max speed and saw some strange things in playback. Some of it looked quite beautiful, like some sections of the frame were slower or stuck for brief moments. The fact that it could just drop packets as you describe explains what I saw perfectly to me. I may recreate and use it sometime, as some of the shots had a great and peculiar quality.

All, sorry for not posting some of my tests I mentioned earlier. I've been freaking busy.
Here's the low level noise test I mentioned earlier. What I am finding with these high bandwidth settings, especially with reAQuainted, the low level data has finer data representing detail as it falls into darkness.
This produces finer more nature noise "like" a CRT raster scan. We are getting "closer" to the raw output from the GH2 sensor and converters.

@proaudio4
Thank you for testing specially, while you are busy! ;-)

BTW,Although I looked at and remembered these comments, isn't the result of this test compared by the portion of the B frame?

As for the portion of the B frame, I also recognize that a noise becomes dirty.
However, since the frequency where a clear noise appears compared with 12GOP since the number of the I frames of 3GOP is 4 times the 12GOP increases 4 times, although 3GOP is not like 1GOP, I think that a noise will be clear seen rather than 12GOP?
Although it is unavoidable that a dirty noise appears at a compressive relation unless it is 1GOP, I consider it that the composition made to balance with other elements is 3GOP.

I've found this strange thing, maybe it's just premiere but sometimes the reds go jagged, as if they were interlaced. It happens to strong reds / oranges with sharp edges.
I've had this on many patches, I first noticed it while shooting 720p50 and thought it to be some kind of interlacing going on (as 720p50 and 50i seems to be connected somehow). During yesterdays tests of Driftwoods latest work I encountered the same in 24p!

Any thoughts? This is propably the wrong topic for this, but I didn't know where to put it.

@bkmcwd

Nice movement! Could you supply a link to your diy steadicam instructions? Thanks.

Thanks for the latest patch, Nick. I'm going to test it out tomorrow.
Is there any way for U.S. users to get 720p/50p? I would like to use the INTRA settings for my 720p recording, alas my camera just does 60p ...

I've been testing Driftwood's 'AQuarius'.... but I am curious, can someone please explain to me why the bitrate was dropped by 6mbits for the sake of better "cpb_delay timing"? What is the advantage of better cpb_delay timing? Is it just more stable?

@pinger007
Thanks! :-)
Although the instruction of only gimbal part is in my YouTube channel, regrettably it is altogether explained in Japanese. :(

@soru
Thanks mate! ;-)
Although this patch needs some points to use since it has separated from the theory, supposing someone can use this "Outlaw setting", I will also regard it as not bad.

Which sandisk extreme ?... it matters

Hey guys! Is it possible to have a gop3 for 24L and gop1 for 24H - patch? - in one?

@proaudio4

I think its my card. It is uhs-1 but i cost only 29€
