Hi, Is there anything special I need to know about VP3's IDCT? I mean besides the fact that there are separate IDCTs to handle sparse coefficient matrices. Are the IDCT functions mathematically equivalent to any textbook IDCT functions?

Hi, Check it out-- another update in the space of a week: http://home.pcisys.net/~melanson/codecs/vp3-format.txt v0.4: March 2, 2004 - renamed and expanded section "Initializing The Quantization Matrices" - outlined section "Reconstructing The Frame" - moved Theora Differences Appendix to its own section entitled "Theora Specification" - added Appendix:

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

Hi, I have been on a documentation kick recently. I finally updated my VP3 format document tonight: http://www.pcisys.net/~melanson/codecs/vp3-format.txt v0.2: October 9, 2003 - expanded section "Reversing the DC Prediction" - added Appendix B: Theora Differences Feel free to look it over and point out any glaring mistakes. I can't wait to see how much sense it makes to

Hi, Keep up the good work! The file sizes of Theora's output is amazing! I have just joined the list, and would like to contribute to the

Hi, I am making good progress on understanding, documenting, and re-implementing VP3. I have found some more deadwood in the decoder code and I just wanted to verify that it really has no place: * Version 3.3 tables: There are 2 sets of VLCs: One for v3.1 and one for v3.3. The v3.1 set is always selected. Are the v3.3 tables in production, or will they ever be? * DC Search Points: VP3

./configure: line 524: syntax error near unexpected token `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(libtheora,0.0)' ./configure: line 524: `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(libtheora,0.0)' I'm sure I'm doing something pro-stupid, but --- my setup works fine for ogg & vorbis. autoconf ver 2.13 automake (GNU automake) 1.4-p4 if that matters hey let's put tool version numbers into the README -dan

Dan, In reviewing the code, derf came across the DCSearchPoints array in QuadCodeDisplayFragments(), encode.c:696. It looks like it specifies a search order for nearby coded fragments for prediction if there isn't a nearest neighbor. However, the upper search bound is defined as *0*, so the search loop (line 917) is never executed and it always falls back to the last coded fragment.

Hi, There seem to be 2 sets of block coding patterns in the VP3x/Theora algorithm. Based on the comments in the code, the first pattern is used if encoder version < 6 and the second pattern is used in encoder version >= 6. None of the code to support the second pattern is ever called. Is there an encoder with a version >= 6? The code in question is

I hope this list is small enough for not beeing banned when introducing oneself. So... Hi, I just subscribed to the theora-lists. I'm from the XVID project, so I know a deal about video and MPEG-4 in particular, but nothing about Vorbis/Theora etc., That's why I'm here, because I'm interested in patent-free alternatives. I guess there is no documentation of the current status

Hi, Can anyone tell me the significant differences between VP30 and VP31 (or are you allowed to)? Are there different token and quantizer tables? Are there algorithmic differences? I have a VP30-encoded file that plays with the VP3 VfW DLL but not with the open source decoder. Thanks... -- -Mike Melanson --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project

Hi, Let's play a little game. Forget all you know, or think you know. Without any context at all, what does the following pattern make you think of? <p> X -> X X -> X | ^ v | X <- X X <- X | ^ v | X X -> X X | ^ | ^ v | v | X -> X

Hi, Sorry for taking so long with this, but I finally committed a first pass of my own VP3 decoder to the ffmpeg codebase. You can browse the source here: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/ffmpeg/ffmpeg/libavcodec/ vp3.c and vp3data.h are the files in question. Attached is a message I sent to the ffmpeg-devel list about the new decoder and its present shortcomings.

I try to merge VP3's mmx decoder into theora. http://kyoto.cool.ne.jp/vp3/developers/theora-alpha3-MMXd-src.zip You can see the change by searching the keyword "_UsingMMX_" in all lib folder's file. From VP3???YO vp3@go8.enjoy.ne.jp

just added to the WIKI: * Ideas with some concensus after discussion on IRC, it was provisionally agreed (by those present at the time) that Theora should support arbitrary pixel sizes (presently it is limited to multiples of 16 both horizontally and vertically). It is felt that this can be achieved with minimal pain by adding four values to the page header, immediately following the present

Hello, I am a student who wants to study the VP3 encoding/decoding process in detail. I downloaded the source code from your site. I was wondering if there is any supporting document which provides details of the entire process - a complete VP3 standards document to aid in the understanding of the code. Any information will be welcome. Thanks Regards, Navneet --- >8 ---- List archives:

Hi, I have been working with VP3 for some time now. Dan Miller from On2 just told me about this list. A few months ago, I managed to get On2's VP3 source snapshot to compile under Linux, a feat that many have apparently attempted and quickly abandoned. I compiled a small console app and the results of the experiment are explained here:

Hi, Some of you may recall that I got the VP3 decoder working with the xine multimedia player some time ago and posted a patch for anyone else to try. I really messed up when I did that since I generated the patch against some random CVS snapshot of xine-lib. I did better this time and generated the patch against the latest release of xine-lib (1.0-beta4, released today). If you

Hello everybody, I'm a new member of this mailing-list. My name is Remi BEAUDOUIN, I'm student in an engeneering school in France (ENSEIRB, Bordeaux), major Data and Image Processing. I'm currently doing my last internship before graduating in Thales Airborne Systems. I'm working on video compression and I have to choose the best way to encode and to embed it on a DSP TMS320DM642

Hi, I'm new here - thanks for having me. (Sorry if I'm in the wrong place or a noob.) I downloaded the Theora encoder sample (ver 1.1.1), modified it to encode a sequence of bitmaps, and created an OGV file. The OGV file plays fine in the latest VLC (1.0.5), but I can't do much else with it: I tried uploading to YouTube, and the video just comes out really corrupt:
