RamonAtila Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 What is it called when people turn different colors like green and purple when you're watching a clip online like on youtube or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamonAtila Posted March 4, 2015 Author Share Posted March 4, 2015 It happens when ur watching a clip of something that was reecording usually. you have those scratchy lines at the bottom of the screen and then the characters flash green and purple for a split-second. usually it happens right before they cut away from the shot or when the character makes a sudden jolt of movement. I remember the scratchy lines from taped shows on VHS but I don't remember the flashing colors. I think that's an internet thing. It looks like the characters just teleported. I just wanna know what that's called. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Driver Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 No, it's because like all your other posts you perceive something that is insignificant and think you're shedding light on some great mystery and everyone else isn't high (except Tami) and doesn't care.

RamonAtila Posted March 5, 2015 Author Share Posted March 5, 2015 It isn't insignificant. In the future they'll look back on that stuff and the aesthetic of the flashing purple and green could mean a lot. That's what we do, we look back and find meaning in these things.

Driver Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Real answer--the frame rates of things vary-- video is 30fps, film 24, various HD formats vary in multiples of those rates depending on the intended presentation format. Often times downgrading footage for online playback creates artifacts. The most common comes from compression schemes that analyze a picture over time and recycle pixels that don't change. So a shot of somebody standing and talking would keep the pixels of the person active, but recycle the background if it doesn't change. When they move, the entire image becomes live again. Normally you don't see it, but if you downgrade the frame rate you often get a single dropped frame, or a glitch frame between those shifts. YouTube can playback some total crap frame rates, for years all Internet video was 15fps and a lot of amateur software used by casual video rippers still defaults to this, so artifacts are going to be worsened.

Lucas1138 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I was being a smartass, but after Ramon elaborated a little bit I was also genuinely curious. At first I had no idea what in the sam hill he was talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamonAtila Posted March 5, 2015 Author Share Posted March 5, 2015 Cool thanks, but what's it called though? I know you can do it on purpose. It's called 'pixel glitch effect'. But the name of when it happens as a real glitch is very important to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driver Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 It's a called glitch. Sometimes frame drop. Sometimes muxxing error. No one name cause there's several possible causes. So it's just a glitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
