I don't see the problem with pdfpc as itself.  Also: you are free to change
the key mapping for your self.

The warning message is released in v4.3.0 which is in debian. I think this
bug could be closed.

The upstream project of pdfpc is at https://github.com/pdfpc/pdfpc/ . You
need a github account to open issues there.

At least the -good and -bad plugin is recommendable because it gives pdfpc
more video codec support.

I don't know how debian users think and if they would find the movie
version of pdfpc. Instead I fear that they open bug reports with "movie
support does not work".

This is a decision of barak.

Do you have the package "libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0" installed? It
contains the gstreamer-gtk-sink we use for movie playback.

Bug#888677: pdf-presenter-console: [regression] raster image rendering is really poor

[Andreas Bilke]

Evgeny Stambulchik found a nicer solution for this problem. The annotations
from the PDF are removed from the document (at least in the in-memory
version).

Therefore we can use render() again and have nice pixel graphics.

We released v4.1.2 to reflect this change.

I implemented https://github.com/pdfpc/pdfpc/pull/342. Could you have a
look if it satisfies your needs?

If a page has annotations, it is rendered without visible icons of the
annotations, in all other cases it uses the old way.

I think this patch opens a new bug (see my previous post) and should not
count as a bug fix for this issue.

[Andreas Bilke]

I can confirm that we have degraded quality for pixel graphics so far.

The call to `render_for_printing_with_options` is the "cause" of the
problem. If I switch back to `render` everything is fine.

But: pdfpc supports notes from PDF annotations, and if we render a PDF with
annotations with `render` we see a symbol at the annotation position in
pdfpc. Therefor we have `render_for_printing_with_options` where we disable
the icon for the annotations.

With a quick look at the poppler API I was not able to find another
function call to hide annotations but keep the good rendering.

Out of curiosity, could you bring pdfpc to real fullscreen if you send the

Because we get the full uri (in this case `mymovie.avi?loop`)
via the poppler api and we can parse it as we like.

In constrast, if you use the multimedia package, it will add a movie
annotation (instead of a link annotation in the previous example) to the
pdf. And with the glib API we can not get enought information from this
movie annotation.

With the QT bindings, you get much more, but we can not use something else
than poppler-glib in pdfpc.
