Hi Ralph, could you please set up a area at xiph.org, where you mirror some of the test sequences, just to be shure that everybody talks about the same sequence ? The license issues are not too important, I think if we should be allowed to use 'free for non-commercial use' sequences for our tests. Perhaps it's a good idea to seperate things in 'free', 'free for test purposes' and 'probably not free in most countries, but interesting. Download this only if you are allowed to do so'. The videos should have a length of 5-30 seconds. For new tests I'd like a BSD-alike license. A major problem could be the file format. As far I have seen, everybody uses it's own file format for now. Perhaps it's a good idea to convert everything to .ppm's. I'd really like to see some 'real cinema action sequences' and music video alike stuff in the suite. - Holger __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

We have some DV and SVHS cameras here and I could certainly shoot a real-life sequence for you. Probably not ppm's but an old good AVI..... keep in touch. berk. * mailto:berk@nm.ru * http://ber.k45.ru * ICQ UIN: 49516372 * * The Go! operating system development: http://attend.to/go * --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'vorbis-dev-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

I was thinking mng, of course. :) But a series of png, ppm, or jpeg images would work too. -r --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'vorbis-dev-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.
