similar to: support for theora in xine

Hi, last week's thread about getting closer to a release fizzled out. The mailing list discussion and the TheoraTodo wiki item suggest the following are required for release: 1. freeze the theora logical bitstream format 2. complete the reference implementation tools 3. stablize the libtheora API 4. complete the documentation I'd like to suggest this as

With Theora having reached a bitstream-frozen status, and a beta1 release imminent, what are people's thoughts on the Fedora site about video applications in the desktop release ? This is the first time a royalty-free video codec is in a releasable and supportable state. Also, the GStreamer+totem stack should be a shippable solution supporting Theora very soon now. I'd love for it to be

I downloaded xiph.org's free theora-encoded movie called "honey", both the large and the small versions. I tried playing the small version on both a g4 450 "OS X" mac and a PIII 800mhz running WinXP. On both platforms I used VLC media player version 0.7.2 Neither one of these platforms could play the movie smoothly from the hard disk drive. There were several moments, that

Hi, Since a number of people are eager to try out the native VP3 decoder in xine, I have made a patch available, bz2-compressed: http://www.pcisys.net/~melanson/codecs/xine-vp3-decoder-patch.bz2 To work with this patch: 1) Get the latest xine-lib from CVS. Visit this page for more details: http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=9655 The module name is xine-lib, but you will also need

After a bunch of cumbersome testing I was able to transcode a Quicktime MOV file to OGG with theora and Vorbis. The method's a bit fumbly, but it works... It is automatable except for the initial audio decoding. Software used: Xine, oggenc, ffmpeg, ffmpeg2theora, oggzmerge Step 1: Get the video out of Quicktime ffmpeg -i infile.mov -b 5000 -f mpeg2video outfile.mpg Step 2: Get the video

Hi, would you be interested in a patch to support kate bitstreams ? Kate is a bitstream format for text data that can be muxed in ogg, here presumably alongside a Theora video. It can be used to carry subtitles, and several separate streams can be muxed concurrently (eg, for subtitles in several languages). More info about Kate can be found there: http://wiki.xiph.org/index.php/OggKate Note

hallo, is there any documentation available (or at least has any decision been made on this yet) what the system layer for theora will exactly look like? i guess it will be ogg, but afaik ogg itself is not very specific on how to pack different media format streams into one ogg stream, how to do a/v syncronization ... all the little details. on the other hand there is already such a

Hi, I recognize the main name behind CMML here :) Does the redesigning of CMML allow overlapping clips ? This is the main reason of my current ramblings about seeking. While karaoke was one of the initial goals behind kate, it is just a way the format can be used with (in fact, the format itself does not refer to karaoke at all, but styles and motions). At the moment, it is a fairly versatile

Hi, If somebody is interested in having a crack at this (and think's they have a reasonable chance of succeeding) then there is a dev kit up for grabs. John, we actually already have a LM9638 (1280x1024, B/W) image sensor interfaced to the board. There is a colour version drop in replacement. We also have a color QVGA TFT hooked up for video out. So a good demo system would be to capture

I have a few more questions about theora... if someone could answer or point me to a source of the information... Firstly in the header there is width and height parameters. Are these fixed for the entire file ? Is it possible for say halfway through the dimensions of the video to be changed ie two different size videos are spliced together ? If it is... does the header represent the first

I'm pleased to announce the alpha 3 release of the theora reference implementation. http://theora.org/files/libtheora-1.0alpha3.tar.bz2 http://theora.org/files/libtheora-1.0alpha3.tar.gz http://theora.org/files/libtheora-1.0alpha3.zip The main differences over alpha 2: The encoded image has been flipped to match the sense used in VP3, with the origin at the lower left.

I'm pleased to announce the official freeze of the theora 1.0 bitstream format. We wanted to reserve the right to change things if we discovered any issues during the documentation documentation phase. We haven't, so there's no reason to delay adoption any further. The files produced by the alpha-3 encoder constitute the baseline of the theora I format and will be supported by

Derf's from-scratch alternate implementation of the theora codec is now publicly available from our subversion repository. http://svn.xiph.org/experimental/derf/theora-exp/ This exciting new codebase promises superiour performance, and the encoder is capable of higher quality output than the current represenation, taking advantage of the bitstream extension we've added to the

Hi, So it took a little while to get here but VP3 through ffmpeg is finally starting to achieve viewable results. It partially works right now. Keyframes only. And monochrome. Oh, and the picture is upside down (something I did not realize about VP3 until I let it fly just now). Anyway, here is a picture of ffmpeg's VP3 decoder in action using xine:

I've just committed an image flip for compatibility with VP3 lossless transcode. Thanks to mau and derf for verifying that this was needed. It's a little hacky on the decode side; suggestions for improvement are welcome. Since this is a bitstream change, and we're still a ways from having a complete spec (which is the gating item for beta 1 and the bitstream freeze) we're
