Bug#594093: mplayer: wrong byteorder on 16-bit displays with -vo x11 (-vo sdl works)?
Hello Reinhard, I managed to build ffmpeg 0.6-2 on armel by forcing has_vfp := 1 has_neon := 1 in debian/confflags. After that mplayer 1.0~rc4~try1.dsfg1-1 built without problems and the bug is now gone, thanks! I ran some benchmarks to ensure that we have no serious regressions. The following is in the format (command) # (output with 2:1.0~rc3++final.dfsg1-1) # (output with 1.0~rc4~try1.dsfg1-1) # (comment) so that it can easily be run as a script if somebody wants to replicate my results. /tmp/theora/lib used by the last two commands contains the (r17262 of the) theorarm branch of libtheora that has ARM optimizations which are not in Debian yet: wget -c http://ftp.acc.umu.se/pub/debian-meetings/2009/debconf9/low/1050_Lightning_talk_Redirecting_require.ogv rm -fr ~/.mplayer mplayer -quiet -benchmark -nosound -vo null 1050_Lightning_talk_Redirecting_require.ogv # BENCHMARKs: VC: 42.123s VO: 0.056s A: 0.000s Sys: 3.309s = 45.488s # BENCHMARKs: VC: 42.410s VO: 0.057s A: 0.000s Sys: 3.711s = 46.178s mplayer -quiet -benchmark -ao null -vo null 1050_Lightning_talk_Redirecting_require.ogv # BENCHMARKs: VC: 42.557s VO: 0.059s A: 29.162s Sys: 132.968s = 204.745s # BENCHMARKs: VC: 42.573s VO: 0.059s A: 29.164s Sys: 132.922s = 204.718s mplayer -quiet -benchmark -ao null -vo fbdev 1050_Lightning_talk_Redirecting_require.ogv # BENCHMARKs: VC: 100.571s VO: 62.395s A: 29.759s Sys: 11.450s = 204.176s # BENCHMARKs: VC: 100.950s VO: 62.561s A: 29.855s Sys: 10.820s = 204.185s mplayer -quiet -benchmark -ac -ffvorbis, -ao null -vo fbdev 1050_Lightning_talk_Redirecting_require.ogv # BENCHMARKs: VC: 100.338s VO: 62.138s A: 18.401s Sys: 23.125s = 204.002s # BENCHMARKs: VC: 100.369s VO: 62.127s A: 18.408s Sys: 23.093s = 203.998s # banning -ffvorbis makes mplayer use tremor which is faster LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tmp/theora/lib mplayer -quiet -benchmark -ac -ffvorbis, -ao null -vo fbdev 1050_Lightning_talk_Redirecting_require.ogv # BENCHMARKs: VC: 100.330s VO: 62.173s A: 18.398s Sys: 23.073s = 203.974s # BENCHMARKs: VC: 100.351s VO: 62.199s A: 18.434s Sys: 22.987s = 203.971s # having libtheora in LD_LIBRARY_PATH does not help since mplayer prefers fftheora LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tmp/theora/lib mplayer -quiet -benchmark -ac -ffvorbis, -ao null -vc -fftheora, -vo fbdev 1050_Lightning_talk_Redirecting_require.ogv # BENCHMARKs: VC: 46.867s VO: 85.455s A: 18.274s Sys: 54.063s = 204.659s # BENCHMARKs: VC: 46.873s VO: 85.435s A: 18.291s Sys: 54.035s = 204.634s # banning fftheora makes mplayer use libtheora which is faster (since it has ARM optimizations) LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tmp/theora/lib mplayer -endpos 00:30 -framedrop -ac -ffvorbis, -ao alsa -vc -fftheora, -vo fbdev 1050_Lightning_talk_Redirecting_require.ogv # A: 30.0 V: 30.0 A-V: 0.021 ct: -0.008 750/750 27% 42% 14.4% 24 0 # A: 76.3 V: 0.4 A-V: 75.919 ct: 0.000 0/ 0 ??% ??% ??,?% 4607 0 # REGRESSION: output is filled with Too many buffered pts and a huge # number of frames are dropped.

Re: MPEG LA extends fee free use of H.264

Just a pointer for those who might be concerned: http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/MPEG-LA-extends-fee-free-use-of-H-264-1067246.html Interesting. I don't know if, e.g. DC10 h264 video files on a server qualify as streaming. Even if it does, it is still only free-from-fee, not free-as-in-speech. So are the IETF RFCs, but we still use their implementations. I think you're missing the point here. Nobody is arguing here about using non-free software, but the ability to watch the debconf videos on mobile phones or iPads, etc., seems very neat to me. PS: we have a dfsg-free implementation of an h264 encoder currently in NEW. -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 ___ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
Hints on packaging a library
Hello everyone, I was wondering if someone had hints on how to package a library. The things I want to package are often distributed with at least an executable which uses them. The packages I am working and contain libraries on are: scenic, spinframework. I am also interested in packaging lyd. For now, I used CDBS, but I would like to give a try to dh 7, to compare. :) Whatever works first... Any examples of packages I should check out? I looked at liblo, which is a library I know and use. It's pretty straightforward. I found some info about the soversion (liblyd0, for example) in the Debian policy manual. http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-sharedlibs.html#s-shlibs There is no debian/shlibs file in the Git repo for the packaging of liblo. I guess it's generated by the debian/rules file? It seems like the versioning of the shlibs rely on the LO_SO_VERSION=7:0:0 in configure.ac. Some project may not provide this upstream. I'll keep digging into this.

Bug#591881: vlc-nox: package fails to upgrade properly from lenny
2010/8/26 Reinhard Tartler siret...@tauware.de: I'm still waiting for an answer on this question. Is this issue solved with the latest upload, or do you prefer me to upload the patch posted above? Sorry, should have sent that to the bug itself, too… (we discussed that a bit on irc last week i think) It would be nice if you could fix it in your package (which at least feels a bit cleaner anyway: liba2 breaks liba1 sounds saner than libpartlyunrelated breaks liba1). The thing is, fixing it for APT is a bit more complicated than it looks: The patch changes a line which is old. And if i say old than i mean that this one-line patch circumvents the score-consideration introduced in rev. 8 of the source. Call me nostalgic, but i am pretty sure that changing code which is from 1998 and survived until now shouldn't be changed to upgrade one package shortly before a release if it can be worked-around easily… (okay, the breaks are newer - they are from 2006…) Not because this couldn't be an old bug, but because changing it now without in-deep testing will very likely break something else. (scoring is an important concept in the resolver, so my personal guess is that we can safely place bets on the possibility that it will break…) We can consider this after squeeze then we have ~2 years of testing before shipping it… Best regards David Kalnischkies ___ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
