# extract one frame at the end of a video ffmpeg -sseof -0.1 -i intro_1.mp4 -frames:v 1 -q:v 1 intro_end.jpg
-sseof -0.1: This option tells FFmpeg to seek to 0.1 seconds before the end of the file. This approach is often more reliable for extracting the last frame, especially if the video’s duration isn’t an exact multiple of the frame interval. Super User -frames:v 1: Extracts a single frame. -q:v 1: Sets the quality of the output image; 1 is the highest quality.

There’s been no statements as to when Midjourney’s technology will start showing up in Meta’s products, or to what degree it will be baked into the company’s AI strategy.

Qwen-Image-Edit is the image editing version of Qwen-Image. It is further trained based on the 20B Qwen-Image model, successfully extending Qwen-Image’s unique text rendering capabilities to editing tasks, enabling precise text editing. In addition, Qwen-Image-Edit feeds the input image into both Qwen2.5-VL (for visual semantic control) and the VAE Encoder (for visual appearance control), thus achieving dual semantic and appearance editing capabilities.
PixiEditor is a universal 2D editor that was made to provide you with tools and features for all your 2D needs. Create beautiful sprites for your games, animations, edit images, create logos. All packed up in an intuitive and familiar interface.
The goal was ambitious: to generate a hyper-detailed 3DGS scan from a massive dataset—20,000 drone photos at full resolution (5280x3956px). All of this on a single machine with just one RTX 4090 GPU.
What was the problem? Most existing tools simply can’t handle this volume of data. For instance, Postshot, which is excellent for many tasks, confidently processed up to 7,000 photos but choked on 20,000—it ran for two days without even starting the model training. The Breakthrough Solution. The real discovery was the software from GreenValley International
Their approach is brilliant: instead of trying to swallow the entire dataset at once, the program intelligently divides it into smaller, manageable chunks, trains each one individually, and then seamlessly merges them into one giant, detailed scene. After 40 hours of rendering, we got this stunning 103 million splats PLY result:
Temporary Use: AI-generated material can be used for ideation, visualization, and exploration—but is currently considered temporary and not part of final deliverables.
Ownership & Rights: All outputs must be carefully reviewed to ensure rights, copyright, and usage are properly cleared before integrating into production.
Transparency: Productions are expected to document and disclose how generative AI is used.
Human Oversight: AI tools are meant to support creative teams, not replace them—final decision-making rests with human creators.
Security & Compliance: Any use of AI tools must align with Netflix’s security protocols and protect confidential production material.
Matrix-3D utilizes panoramic representation for wide-coverage omnidirectional explorable 3D world generation that combines conditional video generation and panoramic 3D reconstruction.
Large-Scale Scene Generation : Compared to existing scene generation approaches, Matrix-3D supports the generation of broader, more expansive scenes that allow for complete 360-degree free exploration.
High Controllability : Matrix-3D supports both text and image inputs, with customizable trajectories and infinite extensibility.
Strong Generalization Capability : Built upon self-developed 3D data and video model priors, Matrix-3D enables the generation of diverse and high-quality 3D scenes.
Speed-Quality Balance: Two types of panoramic 3D reconstruction methods are proposed to achieve rapid and detailed 3D reconstruction respectively.
Deepfake technology is a type of artificial intelligence used to create convincing fake images, videos and audio recordings. The term describes both the technology and the resulting bogus content and is a portmanteau of deep learning and fake.
Deepfakes often transform existing source content where one person is swapped for another. They also create entirely original content where someone is represented doing or saying something they didn’t do or say.
Deepfakes aren’t edited or photoshopped videos or images. In fact, they’re created using specialized algorithms that blend existing and new footage. For example, subtle facial features of people in images are analyzed through machine learning (ML) to manipulate them within the context of other videos.
Deepfakes uses two algorithms — a generator and a discriminator — to create and refine fake content. The generator builds a training data set based on the desired output, creating the initial fake digital content, while the discriminator analyzes how realistic or fake the initial version of the content is. This process is repeated, enabling the generator to improve at creating realistic content and the discriminator to become more skilled at spotting flaws for the generator to correct.
The combination of the generator and discriminator algorithms creates a generative adversarial network.
A GANuses deep learning to recognize patterns in real images and then uses those patterns to create the fakes.
When creating a deepfake photograph, a GAN system views photographs of the target from an array of angles to capture all the details and perspectives. When creating a deepfake video, the GAN views the video from various angles and analyzes behavior, movement and speech patterns. This information is then run through the discriminator multiple times to fine-tune the realism of the final image or video.
Sourcetree and GitHub Desktop are both free, GUI-based Git clients aimed at simplifying version control for developers. While they share the same core purpose—making Git more accessible—they differ in features, UI design, integration options, and target audiences.
sRGB: A standard “web”/computer-display RGB color space defined by IEC 61966-2-1. It’s used for most monitors, cameras, printers, and the vast majority of images on the Internet.
Rec. 709: An HD-video color space defined by ITU-R BT.709. It’s the go-to standard for HDTV broadcasts, Blu-ray discs, and professional video pipelines.
Why they exist
sRGB: Ensures consistent colors across different consumer devices (PCs, phones, webcams).
Rec. 709: Ensures consistent colors across video production and playback chains (cameras → editing → broadcast → TV).
What you’ll see
On your desktop or phone, images tagged sRGB will look “right” without extra tweaking.
On an HDTV or video-editing timeline, footage tagged Rec. 709 will display accurate contrast and hue on broadcast-grade monitors.
