What's the status on that? The problem with the Qt4 patch is that it needs to work on Windows, too. I haven't been able to check that yet, due to lack of time and a suitable system (my notebook, which also ran Windows, went kaput long ago). > Regarding libav, I've tried to compile dvbcut against libav 9, but the > list of compilation issues is long. I can imagine. I once tried it with libav 7 (I think).
