Would it be useful to anyone to have access to additional uncompressed 1080p content for testing and/or development purposes?

We've created some nice 30 second clips of 3d animation that will be published on our web site as compressed small flash video.

However if it can be of benefit to the community I can make the hi-res raw footage available.

Sorry for the late response, I just came across this post.
I, for one, am very interested in having access to uncompressed HD footage for the purpose of testing codecs (specially H.264 :D ).
Two questions also: do some or any of these clips contain highly moving background or are they mostly static?
And when could you make these clips available?
Many thanks in advance.

Cheers

P.D. I think this post is being wasted in this section as I am sure I´m not the only one who wants access to such content. I believe it would be much more useful (and much more appreciated) in the MPEG4 AVC, DivX or XviD forums.

Further down the home page are links to uncompressed 1080p frames, in PNG form, hosted at xiph.org. You can download them through BitTorrent for ease of use I believe.

I'm trying to get the 1080p PNG's as we speak through the .torrent but no seeders seem to be up :(

I might have to code up or find a program to download them from the file listing since the .torrent seems to be down. God knows i don't want to do it manually :P

Inventive,
You're correct that Elephant's Dream has footage available, but for me it was difficult to get via torrent, and still that's the only 1080p uncompressed content freely available I know - maybe I'm missing other stuff.

Skelsgard,
Ok good to hear it could be useful. I think you're right about being the wrong forum, I'll repost and answer your others questions about the content on the advanced codecs forum.

Thanks,
PG
