"the package*s* work together"? You mean opal, ffmpeg an x264? I already created patches so the codecs work (but H264). Did you find any problem? The package is built with the codecs support in the home:RedDwarf:multimedia repo (still I would like to see it in Packman), to easily test. The spec file (https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file?project=GNOME:Factory&package=opal&file=opal.spec) explains everything using the format from http://old-en.opensuse.org/Packaging/Patches, upstream bug reports included. > Can you tell me what an SR is?

With SR I meant Submit Request (http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_Collaboration#Submit_your_changes_to_be_merged). But I was talking about the package in GNOME:Factory, not Packman (Packman, then, could create its package linking from the main openSUSE Build Service). I was trying to avoid creating a new, different, package in Packman. > work nicely. I have an objective of getting H.264 working, since that's > what most video conference systems use. Since I don't really use videoconference I never tried for more than 10 minutes, but didn't seems obvious. A fix would be highly appreciated. _______________________________________________ Packman mailing list [email protected] http://lists.links2linux.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/packman
