New Hack Progress: Zebra stripes An amazing improvement: Zebra stripes showing the overexposed areas of the scene while recording video (not recorded in the real video file) Some Questions… – If an only-person effort made this almost possible (still not available for people’s use but already running properly) along with Onscreen Audio metering bar and […]
