FYI, Google is acquiring On2: <http://www.betanews.com/article/Future-of-open-Web-video-may-change-with-Google-acquisition-of-On2/1249481107> Also on Slashdot: <http://tech.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/08/05/1742249> Anyone knows what, if anything, this means for Theora, open video and/or the Xiph.Org Foundation? Wild speculation: considering that they complained about the

Hi all, It's been a few years since I encoded a number of movies using the VP3 codec (v3.2) on my Quicksilver PPC. Now I have a new Intel mac and I'd like to play them. However, it seems that the codec offered on On2's website is only for the PPC architecture. Does anyone know a workaround or some other codec that works on the MacIntel platform? I'm using Quicktime Pro 7.

The site: http://www.techimo.com/articles/index.pl?photo=33&SID=12&tag=SNnb323 has a review & comparison of several mpeg-4 codecs, and they also include vp3. (Be warned, it's a very big web page, due to all of the image examples!) Not really all that informative, but I thought somebody might be interested in hearing about it. *** On2 VP3 3.2.5.0 Positive: extreme low bitrate

Hi, I'm using CentOS on a laptop that part of the time is connected to a docking station with two monitor connected to it. When the laptop lid is docked, its lid is closed, as the system is placed in a position where it's not convenient to keep it open, let alone look at the screen. Now in the past, with CentOS 5 (on a different laptop, but same physical config) and 6, the screen has

Hello Theora developers, I'm doing some cursory research into Theora's IP status in preparation for asking Apple to reconsider the possibility of shipping an implementation. I have a few questions and I'm hoping knowledgeable people can help out. 1) What are the terms of any patent licenses or disclaimers, and do they have field of use restrictions or limitations on code for

"Google will soon make its VP8 video codec open source, we?ve learned from multiple sources. The company is scheduled to officially announce the release at its Google I/O developers conference next month, a source with knowledge of the announcement said. And with that release, Mozilla ? maker of the Firefox browser ? and Google Chrome are expected to also announce support for HTML5 video

I noticed that in the narrow band and wide band destroy functions only the main pointer is being freed. I think that it should be: void nb_decoder_destroy(void *state) { DecState *st; st=(DecState*)state; speex_free (st->inBuf); speex_free (st->excBuf); speex_free (st->innov); speex_free (st->interp_qlpc); speex_free (st->qlsp); speex_free

In the fir_mem_up filter, the inner loop does a mac on the y0, y1, y2, y3 variables. What is the range of values of those variables? I would like to move the SHR 1 outside the loop after the mac has been done. Will this result in a 32 bit overflow of the y0, y2, y2 and y3 variables? -Fritz On2 Technologies, Inc. http://www.on2.com

Supposedly On2 transferred their Video Recorder and TrueCast5 streaming server into opensource along with VP3. Theora is obviously the VP3 project, and while I can find nothing on Xiph about it, the recorder source is offered on vp3.com; but I can find nothing on Xiph or vp3.com about what happened to Truecast5. I contacted On2 about whether TrueCast5 was really going to be open source, and they

"Q. Isn't VP3 a patented technology? Yes, some portions of the VP3 codec are covered by patents. However, the Xiph.org Foundation has negotiated an irrevocable free license to the VP3 codec for any purpose imaginable on behalf of the public. It is legal to use VP3 in any way you see fit (unless, of course, you're doing something illegal with it in your particular jurisdiction). You

Hello, I am using the latest binary download from vp32.com, just as a starter. We try using the VP32 codec in a video conferencing application, replacing Intel indeo for obvious reasons. I must note that I have considered contacting ON2 for a license of the VP5 codec, but after sending emails for amore than a week and never getting back calls after they were announced, and after not reaching

Hi All, I've been running Gentoo on a ZBook with great success for a couple years, but I've been stymied in my attempts to implement SecureBoot by an apparent problem with efifb to nouveaufb handoff, but only when external monitors are attached. The handoff works without issue when the BIOS is in Mixed EFI mode, with and without external monitors, and works in Native EFI mode without

The list probably did not get this reply from D Richard Felker III. Having read quite a few patents I tend to agree with Richard: Software patents are very broad and even if I have not read the source code of Theora I would be surprised if it did not infringe several patents. However, I believe the argument that On2 has not been sued for infringing the MPEG-patents is a very strong argument.

Yes, the Theora codec is based on VP3, which is an earlier version of ON2's VP6 codec. Theora is currently at its alpha 3 release, and is stable enough to have been used already for streaming live video from a number of conferences, and for encoding several videos that can be found at www.theora.org. Development has progressed to the point that the value of the codec can be seen. That

can anyone confirm that, unlike VP3, Theora in fact decodes images right-side-up? (VP3 managed to turn everything upside down on encode and reverse it on decode) The tests I'm doing indicate that Theora doesn't reverse the image -- the first coefficients encoded correspond to the upper-left corner of the frame. ___ Dan Miller (++,) Founder, On2 Technologies --- >8 ---- List

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:

Is there a registered ACM format tag for Speex encoded audio? I am in charge of an application which can store Speex audio in a stream in an AVI file and I would like to use the official format tag if there is one so that some day it will be playable using some forthcoming ACM codec. Thanks, Keith ________________________________________________ Keith Looney Senior Software Engineer On2

this is slightly off topic and also it was posted to the tarkin list, but I think many people on this list are looking for an open source video codec. ;) On2 released the VP3.2 video codec as open source. I didn't read the license and could not say if it's really open source. http://www.vp3.com http://www.streamingmedia.com/article.asp?id=7871 --- >8 ---- List archives:

Because a wideband signal has both a narrowband part and a wideband part the first part of the wideband decode is to call the narrowband decode. In the fixed point version the signal generated from the narrowband decode is downshifted at the end. In this same version the wideband then upshifts the signal by the same amount. I would like to do away with the downshift on the narrowband side
