  • SLR Drive Vision and Future

The problem is supposedly SLR Drive doesn't do ai pass through if it's 4K h.265
I think it has to be av1 files or a lower quality h.265
That's at least my understanding because I uploaded a video and they said it can't be converted to AI passthrough for that reason
So does SLR Drive plan on fixing that or it is what it is?
I don't know if this is something we're allowed to ask on here but where do you guys find your videos to download in Av1? What is a good free site to get videos in that format?

Hairsational Yeah it did actually nuke the quality lol. I just found that one out the hard way when I actually looked at the two vids I made into AV1

    ameteala That usually implies that the AI pt in it's current state is not compatible with/unable to be run on that video I think, I've had that happen a couple times. What video codec is it using?

        svanir figured it out, reuploaded the video and first time i tried it told me res was too high, after that i got that ai pt request already made for the video, that`s why i couldnt find out why it wouldnt work.

          4 days later

          PeeTee I still have the one video I uploaded just sitting there waiting on AI scripts.

            How do we get more credits? I don't see a subscribe or payment option. I'm a lifetime member if that helps.

            DirrtyJuan I've been a loyal SLR customer for a few years so I'll add some good faith constructive criticism here:
            It's better to under promise and over deliver. They're tackling a huge project, likely with a small team and also likely that not everyone on said team is pulling their weight. I'd rather they give us a more realistic estimate than to miss deadlines time after time. Am I optimistic that SLR drive will be fully functional? Hell yes. Will it be within the given time-frame? Doubt it. But I'd love to be proved wrong!

                notontest For sure. Don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to it and have alot of patience (I alpha/beta test alot of games so well aware development isn't a linear path) but I'm not gonna pretend like the original ETA wasn't september last year.

                I'd rather they give us a more realistic estimate than to miss deadlines time after time.

                Thats why I'm just pointing out that saying definitively 'next week' can lead to disappointment when something comes up and blocks/delays release. From september, to october, to christmas, to early january, early february, should be next week, next week, early march, late march, early april... lol you get the idea 🙂

                  My buddies dad was a baller of a salesman. He said one of the biggest things that put him ahead of others was - under promise and over deliver. He said the other guys would promise the moon but would eventually not be able to keep that promise. Then the costumer would get mad.
                  He would tell them a date past what he could do and then call and say how hard they worked to get it done early. Bingo they loved it.

                  I don't even need AI scripts per se, I just want to AT LEAST be able to upload my own scripts to use with the files I have in Drive already. Not sure what the hold up is on that in particular...

                    svanir I havent read all your other comments but Im pretty sure you can already do this in DeoVR if you were not aware

                        svanir you can upload your script for any slr scene. Drive script uploads are in work
