4. Technical Description
Proposal:
Integrate libdvdnav into Solaris
Details:
libdvdnav provides a simple foundation for reading the navigation
information off of a video DVD. Specifically libdvdnav allows one
to easily use:
1. DVD Menus
2. Multiangle Playback
3. Interactive DVD games
The API provides DVD playback as a single logical stream of blocks,
intermitted by special dvdnav events to report certain conditions.
libdvdnav used to be part of both the Oogle project and part of a
plugin for the Xine media player. However, the library now stands
on its own. The libdvdnav library is written and maintained by:
Daniel Caujolle-Bert <segfault at club-internet.fr>
Thomas Vander Stichele <thomas at apestaart.org>
Rich Wareham <richwareham at users.sourceforge.net>
Kees Cook <kees at outflux.net>
Michael Roitzsch <mroi at users.sourceforge.net>
Frantisek Dvorak <valtri at users.sourceforge.net>
James Courtier-Dutton <James at superbug.co.uk>
The current version of libdvdnav is 0.1.10 (Released: June 9, 2004).
Sun will provide packages that install on both x86/x64 and SPARC
architectures.

Doc Impact:
New man page: libdvdnav.3LIB (see case directory). This is a new man
page since the open source community does not provide one.
It provides basic information about the library, and points users to the
project's homepage.
Security Impact:
None.
