PTool v3.63d topic

    I noted the same things weeks ago and... I was nearly crucified :)

    http://bit.ly/sF8vP7

    Today I suggested for a more standard way to describe patches and... again. It seems that the forum became a little harsh lately.

    The traffic and post here grew up a lot and now information are buried under tons of post and the embedded search engine became useless so right now Google is your best friend but also google cannot perform searches per thread (at least I don't know how to do).

    Anyway there are two options: I'm a lame or there should be a bit of truth if some users are saying the same thing (slaves riot) :)

    I think that who spend a lot of time here testing and developing patches don't realize how it became difficult to orient oneself here now.

    Maybe I was wrong, but at the beginning, this wonderful project (I started with a GF1 on dvixuser) wasn't meant to be so elitist.

    Good night

    It isnt elitist. Ask decent questions and you get answers. Ask me any questions using PM about my patches. No problem.
  • B3GuyB3Guy
    The problem lies in people asking questions where they oughtn't. Not questions they oughtn't, just in places they shouldn't. This floods threads with irrelevant dialogue exchanges (like this one, btw) effectively making it harder to read the thread and get what it is about and how it has progressed. I say it makes it harder, not impossible. I joined several months back, and that was only after a LOT of reading. I asked questions only after trying to find an answer in the threads (I never use the search, I have read enough to know which threads might touch on particular subjects), and I only asked a question on a thread if it fit with the CURRENT discussion ongoing, otherwise, I pm'ed.

    Basically what I've got to say is, no offense, but learn to read forums. Don't go asking a forum to be something it is not, that isn't fair. Reading forums is different from other practices of gathering information. You have to learn the clues that indicate it is time to skim, and time to really read.

    Since I see that nobody has axed this off topic discussion here yet, there is now a thread for this to be discussed further (which I was about to create myself but was smart enough to LOOK FOR MYSELF FIRST in the "off topic" category). Someone else created it already, but didn't reroute this discussion that direction.

    You nailed it, jeffryalan. And in doing so, you've put in specific relief how GOOD this forum really is. Well said!
  • B3GuyB3Guy
    LOL @ "that topic is well known and has been covered extensively"

    yes, quite typical. It is important to note that many of the people in the NnD are using that space not just for those who "know the current state of the hack", but are using it to IMPROVE the hack. This is where these people work, do their research, consult each other. The above answer is given because they are not concerned with already covered topics, but with improving the hack. They're on the frontier, and letters from back home seem quaint.

    BUT I POINT YOU AGAIN TO http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/1644/wiki-discussion

    kindly cease and desist discussion of this subject on this, the "3.63" thread, lest the wrath of Vitaliy descend and move your comments, or worse . . . delete them. In fact, IDK why I posted this here . . . I'm really only making things worse at this point. maybe I like to get in @Vitaliy_Kiselev 's hair. :-)
  • driftwooddriftwood
    @Vitaliy_Kiselev Would there be any chance of providing AVCHD FPS setting for 1080i enabling to remove frame 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, etc... ? I would use this for the INTRA setting 1080i. Sortof test I wouldnt mind doing you see.
  • LittleDLittleD
    @longjohn

    Simple as that: you want them to spend some time on sorting, or on developing...
    Just try to keep up, it 's worth it.

    @jeffryalan

    The new firmware is not used with ptools yet.

    Read first post here: http://personal-view.com/talks/discussion/1656/gh2-v1.1-new-firmware-with-25p-discussion-topic/p1

    Spasiba!
  • cyfernoacyfernoa
    geehtwo I'm pretty sure this is a weak troll attempt. What is the point?
  • AthirilAthiril
    @Oedipax

    I meant 50i vs 60i, whether I should check the box (PAL<->NTSC) or not for 50i. etc etc. If it depends on the firmware supplied, or if my PAL camera is always PAL unless I check that box and it makes it NTSC. Does it stay NTSC, or does every hacked firmware updated change the 'base' setting of the camera when you check that.

    IE: Stock camera is PAL, tick PAL<->NTSC, update, is now NTSC camera, next update tick PAL<->NTSC and is now PAL again?

    @vit You did check that box that says "Don't brick my camera", right?

    With this site I am like a crack addict who ordered his crack in the mail and has to check it repeatedly everyday to see if it came yet. Godspeed Vitaliy cure me of this cruel addiction with the glory of the new Ptool.
