Re: [compiz] extra plugins for 0.5.0?
Hey Jigish, Most of the plugins have been ported for compiz, you can find compiz-git and compiz-git-extras (including animation) here: http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/cyberorg/ I haven't packaged it for compiz 0-5, waiting for the build process of -extras to get streamlined a bit. That's perfect, so I don't have to do it ;) I will just need them for my LinuxTag talk (and would rather like to use rpms than compiling myselfs on that laptop ;) , but that's in 3 weeks, so plenty of time left. And with the git repros, everything's settled. I am also waiting for transparent cube patches that applies to the latest compiz, will post new packages after that. Sure.

If this would be possible compiz could add itself as video adapter and the video players would not need to be changed. This would be a major extension to the Xserver, and can probably not be done without the additional memcopy that compiz tries to avoid. In time this *could* be implemented. It's probably of very low priority, though.

Yes, it should go into a new plugin but this new plugin should still support xv output as you want to dynamically fall-back to that when the compiz interface isn't available. It should probably go into an xv-compiz output plugin but some code sharing between the existing xv module should probably be done then. I guess the best thing would be if the new module would call the xv plugin dynamically if needed. So the code paths would remain clean. At least that's what I'll try to do with xine. David, one more question about this rendering technique (have to admit that I haven't looked at the code yet): are overlays still possible, that is can I render with standard X / OpenGL calls over an YUV image that has been blitted by compiz? That is needed for about all on-screen-displays and subtitles, because they are typically rendered in different resolutions than the main video.

[compiz] 0.3.7 packages for openSUSE - hopefully working out-of-the-box with AIGLX now
Hi all, I just uploaded new packages to openSUSE.org. If everything turns out well this package is the first to work out-of-the-box on - AIGLX: intel, radeon, ... - NVIDIA native - Xgl: intel, radeon(?), nvidia, fglrx, ... Especially Xgl is the only possibility for ATI proprietary driver users. Tested on Xgl, still works, AIGLX hasn't been verified yet, but the source changed only for the Xgl path. Basically, the loads a different library for indirect rendering if the native libGL doesn't support EXT_texture_from_pixmap correctly / doesn't have the correct GLX version. The packages keeps building with a statically linked Mesa for older trees, so this is only in effect on the Factory and 10.2-Xorg7.2 trees. The packages probably need some time until they are built. Version is 0.3.7. Happy testing :) Matthias -- Matthias Hopf [EMAIL PROTECTED] ____ __ Maxfeldstr. 5 / 90409 Nuernberg (_ | | (_ |__ [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone +49-911-74053-715 __) |_| __) |__ R D www.mshopf.de ___ compiz mailing list compiz@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/compiz
