FFMPEG may soon have, if it hasn't already, support decoding Media 100 / Finish
/ iFinish format.
Why is that? I recently did what nobody has before, provided the FFMPEG
developers with some samples of video made with the codec. There were some
short samples on the tutorial CD that came with the NuBus Media 100 hardware.
I was looking around for info on various stuff and found their list of formats
they are wanting to add support for and saw Media 100 in the list.
The upside of this is having FFMPEG installed should enable AP to at least read
Media 100 format and it should work with newer versions of Windows and OS X
than the Finish transcoder does. (On Windows the transcoder doesn't play well
with QuickTime versions newer than 6.5.2.)
The FFMPEG team wants to add support for as many codecs as they can, so if you
have something obscure laying about, send them a sample. It's best if you can
make a small video under a couple of megabytes so it's complete.
I opened some of the small Media 100 videos and found what looked like header
info in plain text at the *end* of the files.
