So, this time a direct2video demo. Depili from Hacklab Helsinki contacted us a few months ago, with news that Assembly will have this ultrawide 7502x1500 bigscreen this year. The problem was that they had very little native resolution content for it. We of course said yes, epic big screens with higher pixel density than IMAX are something that our well-fed artists are filling with beautiful pixels almost every day!

Being quality-oriented organization, we of course wanted to try with uncompressed video first. For some reason it's hard to show 1GB/s bitrate video in year 2019.. A quick phone-call to our compression specialist Hi-Stack/HACKERS suggested usage of Apple Prores, which ffmpeg surprisingly supported. After a quick 3fps compression session (Lol @ external USB3 SSDs in year 2019 right?) we had something that looked fairly okay. It decoded to three 4k outputs at 60fps, and looked crispy.

This distribution package here is the binary for Microsoft Windows. Demo was coded / recorded on GNU/Linux, but most demoscene people hate freedom so we don't see point in including the binary unless there's some media backlash. Any half-decent gpu should run it okay. Output stage of the pipeline scales 7502x1500 internal buffers to the desktop resolution. Downscaling doesn't have any fancy filtering, so it might alias a bit. :-D

Use B/N/M keys to see parts of the framebuffer with 1:1 pixels.

Yeah yeah yeah, the years roll by but demos still suck. Go walk in the forest while you still can.
