What you NEED to know before touching a video file

What you NEED to Know Before Touching a Video File

Hanging out in subtitling and video re-editing communities, I see my fair share of novice video editors and video encoders, and see plenty of them make the classic beginner mistakes when it comes to working with videos. A man can only read "Use Handbrake to convert your mkv to an mp4 :)" so many times before losing it, so I am writing this article to channel the resulting psychic damage into something productive.

If you are new to working with videos (or, let's face it, even if you aren't), please read through this guide to avoid making mistakes that can cost you lots of computing power, storage space, or video quality.

Correct TypeScript typing example for Redux Thunk actions
import {Action, ActionCreator, Dispatch} from 'redux';
import {ThunkAction} from 'redux-thunk';
// Redux action
const reduxAction: ActionCreator<Action> = (text: string) => {
return {
type: SET_TEXT,
text
};
};

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns                     on recent CPU
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns                     14x L1 cache
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns                     20x L2 cache, 200x L1 cache
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs 4X memory

Decodes a password from HeidiSQL. HeidiSQL passwords can be found in the registry. Use File -> Export Settings to dump all settings. Great for if you forget a password.
function heidiDecode(hex) {
var str = '';
var shift = parseInt(hex.substr(-1));
hex = hex.substr(0, hex.length - 1);
for (var i = 0; i < hex.length; i += 2)
str += String.fromCharCode(parseInt(hex.substr(i, 2), 16) - shift);
return str;
}
document.write(heidiDecode('755A5A585C3D8141786B3C385E3A393'));
