checksum files are avalaible at http://fromani.exit1.org/transcode-1.1.0alpha3.tar.bz2.md5 http://fromani.exit1.org/transcode-1.1.0alpha3.tar.bz2.sha1 This is the first public release of new transcode branch aimed to be released as stable (hopefully) before the end of year. Code quality is still alpha, neverthless this release is recomendded for every experiencede and/or brave user out there. Please help us in improve transcode and in make this release the better transcode release ever! If you was already using a CVS HEAD snapshot, you can safely upgrade to this release, since we're in stabilizing phase and we add only fixes and stabilization patches. Otherwise, I'll suggest to start tracking transcode_1_1 branch :) Full Terse ChangeLog (since 1.0.0) is on writing phase since it is pretty damn long. Only Inter-Changelog is avalaible yet: Terse ChangeLog follows: transcode 1.1.0-alpha1: ----------------------- - improve detection of MPEG streams (closes bug #000002): do not use hardcoded defaults if sequence header has incorrect data; try to guess ASR from width and height; - rewrite import_im and import_imlist: switch to modern ImageMagick Wand API; - make our IM filters compatible with IM 6.3.x with HDR (closes bug #000014): improve pixel access; port to NMS and further improvements delayed for post 1.1.0. - make import X11 frame rate emulation a bit more reliable: add trivial skew correction; port to NMS and further improvements delayed for post 1.1.0; transcode 1.1.0-alpha2: ----------------------- this release just start to address (not close) issue #000011: - re-make socket interface asynchronous into a separate thread. I'm not a big fan of threads and stuff, but IMO this will help us in simplyfing the code and design. - merge signal thread and socket thread in event thread. transcode 1.1.0-alpha3: ----------------------- - add list read facilities to libtc config file support (pulled by PVM rewrite) + testcase. - rewrote PVM3 parser quite enterely, since old code was no longer compatible with libtc code. (closes bug #000018) - unify and simplify the probing report functions. - more improvements in IM import module (closes bug #000020). Best regards, -- Francesco Romani // Ikitt
