Anything over competing projects?
by Toastie - May 10th 2002 09:11:00
I still fail to see what does this project has to offer over competive
projects such as mplayer, aviplay or even ffmpeg itself.

There are two key enhancements:
1) Dynamic audio warping. The audio stream is warped (during recording)
to exactly match the video stream. Most other recorders loose synch after
a couple of minutes (or hours, if your sound card is good). I have a
stream here that has been running for nearly 2 weeks, and the A/V packets
are still perfectly synchronised.
2) Deep buffering. Both the audio and the video are deeply buffered (with
hardware support where available). This means that you are much less
likely to loose frames under bursty load.
3) (Actually part of 2...) Smooth frame dropping. If it should happen
that frames must be dropped (i.e. your system is just too slow to handle
the capture/codec), then the frames are dropped in a smooth, regular way,
to minimise visual degradation. (In fact, its hard to notice until you
start dropping nearly 20% of the frames!)
Some of the competing projects have some of these features, but none have
all of them (in fact I know of no other recorder that dynamically warps the
sound, although some do provide a post processor to fix the sound
afterwards).

Dependancy prbs on MDK8.2
by yolinux - May 31st 2002 02:32:02
Hi.
Successfully installed (./configure ; make ; make install) for
libquicktime, divx, lame, mad,etc (everything on the project page), and any
dependant libs/binaries (from rpm), but .configure still says:
divx4linux header is not installed..
mp3lame is not installed...
mad not installed.
Any clues? I have accepted the defaults (/usr/locallib and
/usr/local/include) for all these packages:
ls /usr/local/include/
decore.h encore2.h id3tag.h lame/ mad.h quicktime/
ls /usr/local/lib
libdivxdecore.so* libmad.la* libquicktime.a
libdivxdecore.so.0@ libmp3lame.a libquicktime.la*
libdivxencore.so* libmp3lame.la* libquicktime.so@
libdivxencore.so.0@ libmp3lame.so@ libquicktime.so.0@
libid3tag.a libmp3lame.so.0@ libquicktime.so.0.0.0*
libid3tag.la* libmp3lame.so.0.0.0* mp3lame.so@
libmad.a libquicktime/
ld config is correct, packages that are runnable do run (madplay) I'm out
of ideas...
Yo.

Could you please contact me by email (justin at suntiger.ee.up.ac.za), and
attach the file config.log? There should be some clues there as to what
went wrong...

Fixed with Justin's help! The problem was that I had not removed
config.cache before re-running configure.
Thanks Justin!

DIVX4rec bug (hopefully) fixed
by Justin Schoeman - Nov 22nd 2001 02:52:49
Hi everybody,
I think the DIVX4rec bug should be fixed now. I would appreciate it if
everybody who reported A/V synch problems, or jerky playback, would have a
look, and let me know if it works correctly now.
Thanks,
-justin

DIVX4rec bug
by Justin Schoeman - Nov 21st 2001 03:05:00
Hi everybody,
Just a quick warning that there _is_ a bug in DIVX4rec that breaks
playback in recent versions of mplayer, and certain other players. Please
do not use DIVX4rec to produce movies that you intend to distribute, until
I have cleared the bug up. Using it locally is still fine, if you intend
to stick with an older version of mplayer.
Thanks,
-justin
