This patch is inspired by two GH2 patches: LPowell's Flow Motion and Balazer's Cake.
The key features are:
1) All I/P/B frames are the same quality. You know, Panasonic uses worse quality for P and B frames.
2) Use GOP tables to control max average bitrate, much better than frame limit etc., for optimal quality and stability.
3) GOP 6, I-B-B-P-B-B-I. I always feel 15/12 is way too long but 3 is too short and cannot take the advantage of B frames.
4) Reliable 4GB file spanning.
5) Video plays fine in camera.
6) No compatibility issues with video editing software.
Fully tested, no crash yet even under the extreme conditions such as fast panning from very dark to very detailed, very bright areas. Average bitrate is about 45Mbps, Class-4 works fine, but class-10 is recommended for reliable 4GB spanning.
Attached setc.ini has been fully tested, not a single failure; sete.ini has some small changes for more standard 90/72 GOP length, should be even more stable.
Image quality and motion smoothness are simply superb, incredible for a $200 camera, I've never seen such sharp video from any GF2. I'm so extremely happy that I donated to VK right after I watched this:
