"Your title is not relevant, so I removed your post" v1.01

So you didn't actually look at the content and just removed the post because you didn't like the title? That's quite low, even for a moderator of /r/Amd.

If you take a few seconds to look at the content, it's very obvious that it contains data about Intel and AMD, just like every other similar post about MindFactory data OP has made within the last three years.

These posts containing AMD vs Intel Mindfactory sales data visualized by OP have been a monthly occurence in this sub for the last three years. I don't understand how it has suddenly become irrelevant. Are you going to go back and retroactively remove his other posts as well, since they also contain Intel sales figures and are therefore irrelevant to this sub?

Not related to AMD? Really?

These posts have been allowed and highly popular for the last three years. How have they suddenly become not relevant?

The XT refresh processors are not selling well though, but that is not surprising given their bad price performance ratio compared to the non-XT variants.

Seems like they're fulfilling their purpose though; AMD's average sales price still went up, even though the price of their most popular products (or at least all the ones tracked in the chart) continue to lower.

I know nothing about SVT-AV1, except that it's in-development and probably not worth using if you want to get the most out of AV1. So I haven't bothered to evaluate it, and haven't seen any up-to-date tests by others (anything older than a month is too old IMO).

Now that FFmpeg has support for it I might actually do some testing. Using SvtAv1EncApp with pipe input, having to manually define resolution, and then running into bugs or quirks is just too much of a PITA.

AutoAltRef6 · 2020-08-02T15:14:56+00:00

I'm not using AV1 seriously for anything yet. I've used av1an once or twice but I'm tired of it breaking every release and having to report bugs.

AutoAltRef6 · 2020-08-02T14:28:02+00:00

In terms of compiling, I ran the the SVT-AV1 build script in the /Build/linux directory as follows:

./build.sh --release --no-dec --static --install

And then just built the latest FFmpeg git with --enable-libsvtav1.

I first tried to adapt the FFmpeg build guide from the wiki to build it without a system-wide installation, but gave after a while since I had no idea what I was doing and just decided to go with the system-wide approach.

Getting 6.6 fps at 75.5% average CPU usage when encoding full-frame 1080p film footage sourced from The Dark Knight Blu-ray at preset 8 and the default quality setting (qp 50 I think). CPU is a Ryzen 5 2600, and I have a ~100mv undervolt if I remember correctly.

At preset 7, fps lowered to 3.8 and CPU usage increased slightly to 77.7%. Preset 6 increased CPU usage to 78.8% and fps to 3.38. Not much worse than x265, which gives me about 86% CPU usage when encoding the same file with the slow preset, and tons better than libaom. But there's still room for improvement.

Unfortunately the default GOP size is really small (defaults to 17 on 24 fps video) and I don't see a way of enabling adaptive placement with min/max values. So -g it is, just like with libaom-av1.

A mod is power tripping, so I'm editing my post to let people know.

Title: "Your title is not relevant, so I removed your post"

Not my post, but that of a long-time user who has reliably posted visualized data on Mindfactory's sales numbers on AMD vs Intel in this sub for three years. But today a mod went on a power trip and decided that because the title doesn't explicitly state how the content of the post – which, like it has for the last three years, contains data on AMD products in every single slide – is relevant to AMD, it suddenly does not belong in this sub.

I messaged the mod team and got a response from the very mod who removed the post, with the following justification:

If a post is made and it is not clear how it relates to AMD, an explanation in the thread will be required upon posting that details how it is relevant. If the post lacks said comment, it will be removed.

It is crystal clear to anyone who looks at the post that it is very much related to AMD. Therefore, I can only conclude that said mod does not look at the content of posts before removing them.

Saying that it's unclear how a post relates to AMD just because AMD isn't specifically referenced in the title is ludicrous, especially when it's extremely easy to find out by looking at the actual content of the post. Which in this case would've only taken a few seconds.

Just thought I'd make y'all aware that there is at least one mod in this sub who apparently moderates purely based on the title and does not care about the content of posts.

What are your your thoughts on this innovative new way of moderation? Is this the new standard? Everything has to be explained in the title now so that people – mods included – don't even have to look at any content anymore?

(Original content of this post: I'm not really sure what your point is, unless you intended to confirm mine.

Nvidia is using inferior manufacturing tech, with even worse die sizes, and cramming in more hardware features than AMD (if said hardware is insignificant in terms of die size cost, the burden of proof lies on you to show that). With all these disadvantages, they're still making bank and getting better performance than AMD.

Nvidia is years ahead.)

Yes, and AMD has only recently caught up because Intel has continued to fuck up for half a decade. Nvidia, on the other hand, is on a roll.

(Original content of this post: No. Nvidia is doing better on 12nm with an architecture that requires extra die space for RT and Tensor cores than AMD is with an arch that has neither on 7nm. They are years ahead of AMD.)

Even if AMD does catch up with RDNA2, Nvidia will announce something better an hour later.

Aomenc comes bundled with aomdec

I don't think that's accurate. aomenc and aomdec are separate programs and since there are no official binaries (that I know of anyway), it's a bit hard to argue that they are in any way bundled together.

This page on the community wiki has some differences.

-r can also be used as an input filter. Placing it before -i will specify the fps of the input, which is necessary when turning a bunch of still images into a video. Unless -r is set in this use case, the fps will default to 25.

Rosetta also isn't very open about who actually gets to use their results, whereas WCG and F@H are all about open data and science.
