similar to: optimization for OLPC

The One Laptop Per Child project is now including a digital camera in the design of their "$100" laptop computer. According to their latest news, this device will record video at 30 fps and at VGA resolution. Also, the OLPC project is considering using content from WikiMedia, and video files at WikiMedia are stored in ogg theora format. Have folks involved in the OLPC project

There was recently a question on the R-help list about the eee pc. I had a related question about the XO laptop from OLPC (laptop.org). Has anyone looked at the development environment sufficiently to determine if it would be possible to create an executable image for R? The laptop itself only supports Python, Javascript, etc. but it is running a real Linux operating system.

Hi, Attached is a patch against 1.0alpha7 to speed up Theora decoding. It is about 15~20% faster in my test. It consists of following things: * MMX loop filter based on Rudolf Marek's patch in http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/theora-dev/2005-August/002838.html * MMX IDCT based on Rudolf Marek's patch in http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/theora-dev/2005-July/002816.html and the code in

Hi guys, My name is Adir. I'm a Google Summer of Code student, and in addition to that I will be working both with Xiph.org and with OLPC on optimizing Theora's performance. I'm in the list to get a shiny B4, but at the moment I can't do anything since sending the laptop to my place involves some difficulties. Until I get the laptop, I would like to hear from any of you, XO users

Hello list, When I convert an yuv pixel into rgb using the recipies in http://www.fourcc.org/fccyvrgb.php I get an accurate color conversion but the contrast seems to be decreased. If i write, e.g., the pixel directly into an sdl yuv_overlay, I get a well-contrasted frame, however, if I convert the pixel to rgb and call SDL_MapRGB, I get a contrast-decreased frame. Thanks, Ribamar

As far as video playback is concerned, it seems to mostly come down to how the video is compressed - although Gnash (the open flash player) still has a ways to go to play flash media as well as the closed source flash players. For the Colingo activity and library, we've found it very difficult to find optimum settings for flash and instead have decided to go with Theora. We've managed to

Thanks Quentin. I'm trying to examine from the operands of the return instruction, and then to get the last assignment of those. I thought use_iterator/reg_iterator may suit better than just loop through the machine basicblock in the reverse order.

Hi all, I'm trying to write a custom module-level pass that runs before AsmPrinter::EmitStartOfAsmFile(), since I'd like to have some processed information available once entering this function. Looking through "Writing an LLVM pass" documentation, it's not clear to me if this is possible. I've also tried putting the pass in different orders (addPreISel, addIRPasses,

Hi guys, I’m trying to figure out a way to assign initial values to function arguments. For a function in IR: define i32 @main (i32 %0, i32 %1) { %tmp = add i32 %0, %1 ... } I would like to make sure %0 has some initial value (e.g. i32 0) under some circumstances. Is there any easy way to do this? I understand that %0 comes from a live-in value which is defined from outside of the function. I

Hi folks, I would like to find out the machine instructions that use some given registers in the reverse order, and I came across these iterators (use_iterator/reg_iterator). However, there are two things I noticed: 1) These iterators seem to traverse the machine function a bit differently from what I get from the machine function dump. In other words, the use_iterator list is not constructed in

There are ~4300 uses of pr_warn and ~250 uses of the older pr_warning in the kernel source tree. Make the use of pr_warn consistent across all kernel files. This excludes all files in tools/ as there is a separate define pr_warning for that directory tree and pr_warn is not used in tools/. Done with 'sed s/\bpr_warning\b/pr_warn/' and some emacsing. Miscellanea: o Coalesce formats and

Hello, I want to make a program to extract frame from a theora movie as images. I tried with the decoding example located at theora web site (dump_video.c. I use it to extract a frame as yuv image but when I try to convert it to ppm with yuvtoppm program i obtain a strange image ( see http://poux.be/tmp/file.ppm ). I think it's a problem with the byte order for yuv, but don't I don't

Hi, I have done a simple libtheora test for the theora ticket (http://dev.laptop.org/attachment/ticket/5988/), using theora-svn. The results are at: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Theora#Testing For the sake of discussion here, 've copied some comments from the results section on the wiki: - the patch for super fastmode seems to give an impressive speedup. Depending on video input, encoding time

Hi, people! Because XO-1 has a little "disk" space, it will be nice if the location of drive_c can be moved to a SD card. Here in Uruguay, we do not have root permissions in our XO-1. We log in as user olpc an can change permissions only in some directories. And can create links to files but not hard links to directories. The SD card is mounted in /media/label_of_sd_card. I appreciate

hi all, i'm trying to code a tool to get some images from a ogg/theora file .... so basically i need to get a frame and convert to rgb ... and here is my question (sorry, i'm newbe here) ... how to convert a yuv_buffer to a rgb matrix ? i tryied diferent ways but my mistakes are bassically cause i don't understant how yuv_buffer structure works ... anybody can help? thanks a lot.

Hi, For the OLPC school server ("XS") we are planning to move from our dated F9 setup to CentOS 6.2. Thanks for all the effort involved in producing this distro. One important part of this project is a 'respin' of the install media - we need to add a handful of packages from external repositories, and maybe run a command late in the install. Are the scripts/configurations used

Hello Xapian Developers, I am writing with feedback on your Help Wanted listing at teachingopensource.org, specifically http://www.teachingopensource.org/index.php/Help_Wanted:_Xapian Overall, I think your project listing looks very well done. On your ideas page, you haven't done a lot to sell/market each idea. Why is development of this specific project going to improve Xapian overall? How
