And if Stallman is too distasteful, then read the late Tom Wolfe's essay from the 1986 edition of Popular Mechanics, "Land of Wizards" where he also rails against US intellectual property laws. All these intellectual property laws stymie development, not just in technology, but in other fields too. Richard Stallman has a book called, 'Free Software, Free Society' where he writes about open standards and how proprietary formats take us to dead ends like this. If it's legalese, then there is nothing they can do. If it's easy for the developers at Blackmagic, hey why not do it? But if it's too difficult, then they cannot really be blamed. So MTS just shows "MEDIA OFFLINE" on the Linux side. There is some footage from a second camera person using a Canon camera, on some shootings, his codec MOV is H264-MPEG-4 AVC (part 10) AVC1Īnd my main codec for shooting is MOV H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part 10) (avc 1)Īll three of the them don't play video on Linux, but the MTS one for Resolve on Windows will be video but now Audio. Videos with the MTS extension, I suppose that is Panasonic's avchd but the codec info in VLC says that is Codec H264-MPEG 4 AVC (part 10) (h264) When I look up footage via VLC, and go to TOOLS and 'codec info', I get: it's therefore more than unintelligible, that linux users do not get just the same support to use the typical en/decoding solutions on this particular platform - although, the actual customers would still have to take care about all the necessary licensing demands just like on the other operating systems. royalty claims are not applicable in all countries, they obviously do not legitimate most of the practical usage scenarios of h264 en/decoding of an application like davinci resolve on those two commercial platforms neither.
