PixelBlended Studios @ MomoCon 2017, May 25th-28th

Attending MomoCon this weekend? Want to hop on the AMV Train? Well, this convention has got a TON of exciting AMV events planned for you! Thanks to the hard work of PB members Kireblue and l33tmeatwad, as well as many other dedicated staffers, MomoCon brings you numerous events that can be found on its schedule.

Special AMV events that we would like to highlight include AMV Workshop, Friday, 2:30 – 5:30 pm, and AMV Arena, Friday, 5:30 – 8:30 pm. At AMV Workshop, people are allowed to bring in their laptops, or use desktops previously set up in the room, to receive 1-on-1 help from editors on their AMV projects. This could be an incredible opportunity to improve or simply be introduced to AMV making! Immediately after the workshop, AMV Arena will occur and will host various game shows with prizes while 4 editors battle it out to become the best there ever was!

We hope you drop by MomoCon’s AMV room often this weekend, and don’t forget that the AMV Contest will be held at Main Events from 4 to 7 pm!

See you there!!!

AMVtool’s PixelBlended Debut!

Big news! PixelBlended Studios is proud to announce that AMVtool is now included in AMVpack, our software package specifically designed for AMV editors. AMVtool is one, convenient software for encoding and recontainering! It is a GUI for FFMPEG that satisfies all your converting needs! In addition to handling almost all the formats that editors will use, it also helps out by automatically adjusting certain encode settings that are often incorrectly selected. Here are some of the features:

  • Available on Linux, OSX, and Windows.
  • Automatically chooses the color matrix based on the existing file or guesses based on resolution.
  • Easy button for setting up file(s) to be recontainered.
  • Queue for batch encoding.
  • Shows bit depth of the currently selected video stream.
  • Supports encoding of AviSynth (Windows Only) & VapourSynth scripts.
  • Supports encoding to various lossless and lossy formats, including but not limited to x264 & x265.
  • Supports multiple audio streams.

We are so happy to share this new innovation with you! We hope that it will make many editors’ lives easier. All thanks should go to l33tmeatwad and those who have assisted him through the software betas. Please try out the other applications available through AMVpack and check out our English AMV 101 guide at pixelblended.com.

Download AMVpack now and reap the benefits!
