Has anyone noticed this? I have a video made with Final Cut Pro, which I convert to .mov via Compressor. This .mov file plays back fine in Quicktime. But when I then use ffmpeg2theora to convert to ogv, the video seems to play back too fast compared to the audio (I'm using VLC 1.0.2, the latest I believe, to play back the ogv file, and I also have an app that uses the recently

Hi, I've now uploaded the preliminary documentation on the xiph wiki: http://wiki.xiph.org/index.php/OggKate Attached is the current source tree for the libkate library. The tarball also contains the patch to oggmerge (which you will need to apply if you want to merge Kate streams with Vorbis or Theora streams) and the patch to MPlayer to use Kate streams as subtitles. An example is

The Xiph.Org Foundation announces the release of Theora 1.0. Theora is a video codec with a small CPU footprint that offers easy portability and requires no patent royalties. While the Theora bitstream format was standardized in 2004 and our beta releases have been used by millions, this 1.0 release is an important milestone reflecting the maturity and stability of the Theora codebase.

I've heard this second hand and haven't had the time to confirm its vericity. Can someone confirm this is the case? If so, what were these people thinking? Removing support for the only video format that is sure to be installed in every Linux box somehow promoves the OS adoption? You get a WTF award LF, congrats. -Ivo

hi guys, i'd like to have your opinion on using ogm or mkv containers for theora videos. since you recommend ogg containers for theora and vorbis officially i've been insisting on using .ogg. but for example eightsoft put ogm instead of ogg for theora on the last build of "super" and i send an e-mail to them about this issue. and i didn't get the whole idea on the

Hello I would like to ask if it's possible to display Theora logo at http://ronja.twibright.com/sw.php I use Theora for automatically generated videos at http://ronja.twibright.com/3d/ If yes can I please have the master of the logo? I cannot use the small logo you have on the website. Thanks, Karel Kulhavy

Hello, I would like to add a introduction video (typically a title with fade-in / fade-out) at the beginning of an Ogg/Theora video. I generated this intro video in Ogg/Theora from a sequence of png files. I would need to do this in an automatic script, because I have many such videos to process, and without doing any re-encoding step (which would be very costly because my videos are huge). I

We are scheduling another meeting to discuss Theora matters. One of these was planned just a while ago, but it pretty much didn't happen. So let's make this one happen. Anyone interested in Theora or video technologies is welcome to attend. The place is #xiphmeet at irc.freenode.net, this Tuesday at 14:00 UTC. If you don't know when 14:00 UTC is, go here[1] for conversion into

Hi good people, Just to inform: I finally fed FFMpeg2Theora with a .VOB input, and the .OGV output produced played back beautifully in VLC, both audio and video. However, the same output .OGV file gave clicks and pops in the audio when fed through Directshow programs. I played it through Windows Mediaplayer as well as through Winamp, with the same crackles in the audio, and this leads me to

Hey all, I've setup a simple page that just displays a live webcam stream of me at work, and it supposedly falls back onto Cortado if your browser doesn't support the <video> tag. The URL is here: http://media.basilgohar.com/stream/ There's been a lot of talk about live streaming and low bitrate streams. Here is my command line (I've posted this before): time ffmpeg -f

I've made a start writing a Theora player for Series 60 phones (mostly Nokia phones, but some Samsung and Sony Ericsson ones too). Download here: http://symbianoggplay.sourceforge.net/OgvPlay/OgvPlay_010.zip I've been using Big Buck Bunny, Elephants Dream and a few other ogv files for testing. I've uploaded 320x180 versions of those here:

Hello everyone, As discussed on last Monthly Meeting, Monty settled on recommending the extension .v+ogg for Theora files IF it would work on Linux. Probably many have tested it already, but I haven't seen anything said publically, so for the record, v+ogg works on both Windows and Linux. Hadn't a chance to test it on Mac OS X, but I'm sure it should work there too. And Plan 9 :)

Hello, It's been a little while, but I've got some new info. I've tried doing this with Mencoder, ffmpeg, VLC player, and AVIdemux. None work. When I try to either convert a theora(ogm/ogv) file to AVI, while using?variations of "-vcodec copy" to keep theora comression, or just compress an AVI with Theora, it does one of several things, depending on settings and the program

Howdy, I'm proposing to change the version state of Theora from Alpha to Beta, or better yet to remove any mention that it isn't ready. Theora is ready. Saying it's an Alpha version is cute in the eyes of a developer who likes versioning numbers, but it's a nightmare in regards to marketing. Nobody wants to support something that's labeled Alpha. Like it's unstable and
