Please don't! I've been using them exclusively with dvbcut and will work on them again in the very near future (sorry for taking so long, I've been busy with other projects). I plan to add Teletext subtitle support, in particular. And I'd like once again to speak up against removing ffmpeg libraries. There is IMHO no good alternative and in particular not something anywhere near as fast -- although admittedly the recoding _performance_ doesn't matter much for dvbcut in its current form, because it encodes just a few pictures; but that could change, f.e. when recoding a complete movie to fit on a DVD (wouldn't that be a "low-hanging fruit" nice new feature?). ffmpeg has come a long way since the sources were imported into dvbcut. For one thing, it is no longer necessary to change Makefiles or remove source code to get the libraries smaller. You could configure a very lean set of libraries for dvbcut quite easily. In my experience, ffmpeg is generally well maintained and bugs get fixed rather fast. DVB support is unfortunately not a very high priority IMO but I'm working on that. BTW: if you would remove ffmpeg just because of NIH, you would also have to abandon the use of mplayer or at least use mplayer w/o the ffmpeg libs.. :-) Regards, Wolfram. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
