Thanks, so which plugins should I have a look at? You mentioned “videotestsrc” and “videoscale” in your other blog post? I don’t know the GStreamer architecture, so I’m clueless.

Andre:

No, there’s no mailing list, although you can use the liboil mailing list.

I removed the extension libraries because they weren’t very useful. They can’t be used with orcc, and didn’t have any SSE, etc, rules for many of the opcodes. Also, the float code was merged into the main library, and I’m planning to add most of the pixel stuff in the next few weeks. You can already do some pixel manipulation with Orc, as the GStreamer video plugins that use Orc currently do.

No, don’t change it please. There is still not enough information about Orc.

btw, does a mailinglist for Orc exist somewhere?

I see you removed the orc-pixel extension. Was this because you think Orc is not best used for such thing, or for maintenance reasons? Simple image processing with Orc is one of the things I wanted to play with. I’d work with different pixel formats (8 bpp, 16 bpp, uint, float, etc.), though, to get to know Orc.

I like this release handling. It means when prereleases come out, there’ll already be working orc packages in Fedora and I don’t have to bug anyone.

This isn’t the place for bug reports, but I couldn’t find where was, so:

A couple of recent tests show both Dirac and Schro having issues with colors, possibly adding a slight red/purple cast.

and

which my limited knowledge of codecs seems to suggest is a bug, rather than a compression artefact, though it’s odd that both codebases seem to have a similar issue.

Awesome, I’ll have to try it out. Can you elaborate a bit about the new encoder changes, what kind of input do they give improvements for and why?

Web video controversy summarized…

This’ll be the last, definitive article from me on this subject for a while, I promise, but I wrote such a good summary on the Theora/H.264 controversy and the new Silverlight Theora player on Slashdot that I must put it up here as well (with some twe…
