# 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.
In photography, exposure value (EV) is a number that represents a combination of a camera’s shutter speed and f-number, such that all combinations that yield the same exposure have the same EV (for any fixed scene luminance).
The EV concept was developed in an attempt to simplify choosing among combinations of equivalent camera settings. Although all camera settings with the same EV nominally give the same exposure, they do not necessarily give the same picture. EV is also used to indicate an interval on the photographic exposure scale. 1 EV corresponding to a standard power-of-2 exposure step, commonly referred to as a stop
EV 0 corresponds to an exposure time of 1 sec and a relative aperture of f/1.0. If the EV is known, it can be used to select combinations of exposure time and f-number.
Note EV does not equal to photographic exposure. Photographic Exposureis defined as how much light hits the camera’s sensor. It depends on the camera settings mainly aperture and shutter speed. Exposure value (known as EV) is a number that represents theexposure setting of the camera.
Thus, strictly, EV is not a measure of luminance (indirect or reflected exposure) or illuminance (incidentl exposure); rather, an EV corresponds to a luminance (or illuminance) for which a camera with a given ISO speed would use the indicated EV to obtain the nominally correct exposure. Nonetheless, it is common practice among photographic equipment manufacturers to express luminance in EV for ISO 100 speed, as when specifying metering range or autofocus sensitivity.
The exposure depends on two things: how much light gets through the lenses to the camera’s sensor and for how long the sensor is exposed. The former is a function of the aperture value while the latter is a function of the shutter speed. Exposure value is a number that represents this potential amount of light that could hit the sensor. It is important to understand that exposure value is a measure of how exposed the sensor is to light and not a measure of how much light actually hits the sensor. The exposure value is independent of how lit the scene is. For example a pair of aperture value and shutter speed represents the same exposure value both if the camera is used during a very bright day or during a dark night.
Each exposure value number represents all the possible shutter and aperture settings that result in the same exposure. Although the exposure value is the same for different combinations of aperture values and shutter speeds the resulting photo can be very different (the aperture controls the depth of field while shutter speed controls how much motion is captured).
EV 0.0 is defined as the exposure when setting the aperture to f-number 1.0 and the shutter speed to 1 second. All other exposure values are relative to that number. Exposure values are on a base two logarithmic scale. This means that every single step of EV – plus or minus 1 – represents the exposure (actual light that hits the sensor) being halved or doubled.
