Please add "Bits per Pixel Frame" as an indexable property

Post by santilli »

Currently I am indexing the properties Dimension, Video Bitrate and Frame Rate. With the result of those I have created a filter macro:

Code: Select all

add-column:a a:=$video-bitrate:/($width:*$height:*$frame-rate:) a-format:number.000 a-label:BPP
This way, when I type bpp: I get a new column with the BPP value of my video files, which I use to assess which ones could benefit from a re-encode to save space.

It would be extremely helpful if it was indexed as a standalone property so that i would not be required to use a filter macro, which also means I currently cannot have it indexed into a local database, and require me to go through the entire list of results to populate the column. Despite that, it works exactly as I need:

On the same note, it would also be really neat if we could format the values of each column based on its content, like different font weights or color depending on file size, or length, etc.

I have put on my TODO list to add Bits Per Pixel Frame.

bpp:
is an alias for bits-per-pixel:


On the same note, it would also be really neat if we could format the values of each column based on its content, like different font weights or color depending on file size, or length, etc.
Color filters are on my TODO list.
Thank you for the suggestions.

edit: use
a-format:0.000
for formatting.
