I just finished using my mother's PC which is running Windows XP. I downloaded & installed, or already had installed, the latest versions of VLC Media Player (1.0.5), Media Player Classic - Home Theater (last release was in August 2009), Miro (already installed), Mozilla Firefox (3.6), Google Chrome (latest from website today), Opera (10.50 Alpha, latest build from the website), and

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hey all, I'm a bit disappointed, but it seems that I won't be able to get all the testing results that I wanted for the new vs. old Theora encoders done this week. I am rather busy with some family matter and we're also going to be moving from Malaysia back to the US shortly, God-willing, so things are a bit hectic here. I have done

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Since I'm planning to finish my encoding tests that Ralph asked me to do a while ago after I return to the US (God-willing!), I thought I'd throw out a request to other more-experienced video folks. Please recommend to me any good sources (freely and/or legally available) that I can use for my testing of the encode/decode speeds as well as

Hey all! I'm sure you've all been missing my webcam stream, so I decided to start it up again (also, I wanted to do it for my family overseas). However, this time, I'm doing things a little bit differently. For starters, the encoder is the current (as of about an hour ago) ptalarbvorm branch which is destined to become libtheora 1.2. Another difference is that I'm using

As requested by Ralph in my introduction e-mail to this list [1], I've gone ahead and done some sample test timings for encoding between libtheora-1.0 and libtheora-1.1beta3, as available from the Theora website [2]. So far, I've tested with 4 different files that I generated with content I already have. The files, in brief, are the following: 1. planet-earth-360x240.yuv4mpeg - A

(I am sending this same message to theora-dev because I think it applies to development discussion as well as user discussion.) In the discussion of having a freedom-friendly camcorder or other video device, we discussed the idea of using intra-only Theora video to make post-recording editing a much easier process, allowing things like frame-by-frame editing without the need to decode and

In the discussion of having a freedom-friendly camcorder or other video device, we discussed the idea of using intra-only Theora video to make post-recording editing a much easier process, allowing things like frame-by-frame editing without the need to decode and reencode the video again, thus incurring loss. I was quite skeptical of the efficiency of intra-only Theora, and I had speculated that

I've compiled all the e-mails between me & MPEG-LA, along with an explanation and some major conclusions, here: http://www.librevideo.org/blog/2010/06/14/mpeg-la-answers-some-questions-about-avch-264-licensing/ Comments welcome, discussion even more so (preferably some of that on the site, too...). -- *Basil Mohamed Gohar* abu_hurayrah at hidayahonline.org

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

Our discussion in the "Theora Camcorder" thread has been great, but I didn't see a direction evolve for action yet. So, I'd like to propose the creation of a community website that will be focused specifically on this kind of thing, partnered with the Xiph Foundation. I'm also more than happy to host said website, as I have more than ample server capacity for that. I just

All, The thusnelda encoder rewrite is settling down, so as of r16417 I've replaced trunk/theora in svn with the thusnelda branch. This means you no longer have to do anything special to get the new code. If you have an existing theora checkout, it will just update. You may get a warning about conflicts in CHANGES; just accept the new repository version ('tf' at the prompt, or 'svn

I'm pleased to announce that the port of the GCC (AT&T) inline assembly optimized code to Visual C (Intel) inline assembly code is now available in SVN. Thusnelda SVN branch is located here: http://svn.xiph.org/branches/theora-thusnelda For more information regarding Visual Studio 2005/2008 compilation read: http://svn.xiph.org/branches/theora-thusnelda/win32/VS2005/README

Hi all, Attached is a trivial patch that speeds up encoding for key frame only streams. It skips the motion vector search which is not needed when there are never going to be any delta frames. It was made against thusnelda SVN revision 14589. Tested on Fedora 8 x64_64. -Phil -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed... Name:

Hi All, I know the Thusnelda is suposed to be experimental and its not complete yet but I was interested in trying it out. I see there is an experimental windows version of ffmpeg2therora that uses the Thusnelda encoder, I am attempting to build a Linux version. Presumably the experimental ffmpeg2theora must work to some extent or they wouldn't both offering it for download. I was wondering

this sample is very blocky, the older version seems to do much better and less blocky video. i'm not sure if my 1.9ghz 1 gb ram is the problem here or the encoder has hicups on this new libtheora 1.1 20090806 (Thusnelda). please advice how to fix this or should i use the older version. this encode was 2 pass with horrible output. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=NDGY0EAL General ID
