q-Pochhammer Symbol Identity Is this identity or an equivalent one already referenced in the litterature? In particular, is it even true?
${\frac{\left ( -1 ; e^{-4\pi} \right) ^2_{\infty}}{\left ( e^{-2\pi} ; e^{-2\pi} \right) ^4_{\infty}} = \frac{32 \pi^3 \left(\sqrt{2}-1 \right )\sqrt{2^\frac{1}{4}+2^\frac{3}{4}}}{\Gamma^4{\left(\frac{1}{4} \right )}} \simeq 4,030103529...}$
It appears in relation to a particular elliptic function.
Similar identities also arise in this post
Thanks in advance,  
 A: The equality is indeed correct.  It follows from identities in Ramanujan's notebook.
First notice that 
$\left(-1;e^{-4\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{2}=2\left(-e^{-4\pi};e^{-4\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{2},$ 
so we are trying to prove the identity
$$\frac{\left(-e^{-4\pi};e^{-4\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{2}}{\left(e^{-2\pi};e^{-2\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{4}}=\frac{16\pi^{3}\left(\sqrt{2}-1\right)\sqrt{2^{\frac{1}{4}}+2^{\frac{3}{4}}}}{\Gamma^{4}\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)}.$$
The right hand side many be cleaned up further, and written as 
$$\frac{32\pi^{3}2^{\frac{1}{8}}\sqrt{\sqrt{2}-1}}{\Gamma^{4}\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)}.$$ 
Now, since $1+q^{4}=\frac{1-q^{8}}{1-q^{4}},$ the left hand side is
$$\frac{\left(e^{-8\pi};e^{-8\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{2}}{\left(e^{-4\pi};e^{-4\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{2}\left(e^{-2\pi};e^{-2\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{4}}=\frac{\left(e^{-8\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{2}}{\left(e^{-4\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{2}\left(e^{-2\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{4}}.\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ (1)$$ 
On page 326 of Bruce C Brendts “Ramanujan's Notebook Part V” he shows that
$$\left(e^{-2\pi}\right)_{\infty}=\frac{\Gamma\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)}{2\pi^{\frac{3}{4}}}e^{\frac{\pi}{12}}$$
$$\left(e^{-4\pi}\right)_{\infty}=\frac{2^{-\frac{3}{8}}\Gamma\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)}{2\pi^{\frac{3}{4}}}e^{\frac{\pi}{6}}$$ and  
$$\left(e^{-8\pi}\right)_{\infty}=\frac{2^{-\frac{13}{16}}\Gamma\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)}{2\pi^{\frac{3}{4}}}\left(\sqrt{2}-1\right)^{\frac{1}{4}}e^{\frac{\pi}{3}}.$$
Combining these three together in equation (1) yields the desired result.
Remark:  You could have proceeded in a different manner by noticing that the denominator is (almost) the Dedkind eta function.  The product can be written as 
$$\frac{\left(-e^{-4\pi};e^{-4\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{2}}{\left(e^{-2\pi};e^{-2\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{4}}=\frac{\eta(4i)^2}{\eta(i)^4\eta(2i)^2}.$$  
Indeed there are many ways to write this product, another I stumbled across is $$\frac{\left(-e^{-4\pi};e^{-4\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{2}}{\left(e^{-2\pi};e^{-2\pi}\right)_{\infty}^{4}}=\left(\frac{1}{\vartheta_{4}\left(e^{-4\pi}\right)\vartheta_{4}\left(e^{-2\pi}\right)}\right)^{2},$$  where $\vartheta_4(q)$ is a Jacobi theta function.
