Bug#415890: istanbul: A green line is recorded when area selection is used

2007-03-22 Thread Adolf Winterer
Package: istanbul
Version: 0.2.2-1
Severity: important

Using the option Select Area to Record is used, the resulting movie
constantly shows a green horizontal line at the bottom of the movie.
This line is visible with Kaffeine, KMPlayer and VLC. A screen movie
taken by a friend with area selection shows the same green line.

Therefore I conclude that the problem is within Istanbul and not in 
the player software.

Thanks for your report. I've now observed this behaviour too, and
I think it is related to the ximagesrc plugin. I'll ask upstream about
it soon.
Anyway in all my tests the bottom line is *really* narrow
(maximum a dozen of pixels), thus I'm downgrading this bug to
severity: normal.

Feel free to add more info if I'm wrong.

Cheers, Luca

Hello Luca,

I'm glad you can reproduce the effect, hopefully this will make the debugging 
easier.

 Thanks for your report. I've now observed this behaviour too, and

 it soon.

 (maximum a dozen of pixels), thus I'm downgrading this bug to
 severity: normal.

In my recordings the green line was always only one pixel thick.

For the moment I can live with that, as I'm preparing to make some video 
tutorials. For that purpose the green line is no real problem, I just noticed 
it.

Downgrading to normal is OK with me.

Best regards,
   Adolf
