Today I've got first video clips made by the camera and compressed "on the fly" - 1280x1024x30fps. Image quality is far from perfect - I don't have yet any way to preview images, and a single acquisition still requires a bunch of commands. So I'm really close to have a camera that will be able to serve the Ogg/Theora streams, now but will it be possible to play it on a PC? I

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 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.

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

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:

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

The new 3.2.6.1 codecs work great with QuickTime 6 (thank you!), but there's no way for an application to identify them. And since the older 3.2.1.x and 3.2.2.x installers will actually *downgrade* the installed version of VP3, it would be nice if an application could warn the user. The attached patch increments kdxlqt_CodecVersion (and documents all the Component Manager arcana involved).

I've installed 6.4 on an old T30 ThinkPad, and I'm in the midst of setting it up. I can't seem to get an rpm of Pan for it, nor even to do yum update. Mousing around fedoraproject eventually got me to http:// rpmfusion.org/Configuration/ and from there to downloads for the free, nonfree, and epel packages (along with a caveat that tells you -- *after* you've gotten rpmfusion

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

Hi everyone, I just landed into the theora planet, as a game programmer, I searched for a free video fomat/codec and the theora choice became obvious. However I experienced rather bad performance (at least from a game programming point of view) After a couple a profiling, I discovered, as previous discused in a post found via Google, that the bottleneck is in the ogg library. An unsane part of the

Hi everybody, I'm currently writing a real time video conferencing tool for Windows and I want to use the Theora Library for this purpose. My questions are: 1.) is there a vfw implementation of theora 2.) if no, can I bundle the VP3 vfw codec that's available from On2's website with my application Best regards, Florian (Stuttgart, Germany)

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

Hi, I don't know how much of the old VP3 codebase is incorporated into Theora. I wrote ffmpeg's VP3 decoder from scratch but eventually ported in the original VP3 IDCT function. A BSD conflict cropped up that I thought I would pass along. -- -Mike Melanson <p>---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 10 Sep 2003 13:06:37 -0700 (PDT) From: Steven M. Schultz

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

I get exceptionally bad image quality when I try to encode an (uncompressed) AVI into a VP3 AVI (actually I get this output no matter what format the source). Please see this for a brief description of the problem: http://InspiredCode.com/VP3problem.htm What is wrong and what do I need to do? Thanks! Robison

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
