checksum files are avalaible at http://fromani.exit1.org/transcode-1.1.0alpha4.tar.bz2.md5 http://fromani.exit1.org/transcode-1.1.0alpha4.tar.bz2.sha1 This is the second 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 experienced 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 :) This release has a pretty big pile of changes. Most of them effectively addresses real issues (and hopefully solves them), but a fair amount of internal work and cleanup was done in import layer/decoder code. import_mplayer was significantly reviewed as well. This can unfortunately lead to some regression, and some hangup too; of course those are fully unwanted side effects, and they will be resolved as soon as is possible. Please test and provide reports. Regression reports against past revisions and against alpha3 are particulary welcome. This release also includes a ``new'' feature: export_pcm is back, as requested by "Jason P. Stanford" <jps3 at Lehigh dot EDU>". Rationale for inclusion, even if this violates the alpha/beta policy, follow: - export_pcm is effectively a ``forwardport'' (restoration) from 1.0.x branch. - code is stable and pretty simple. - changes needed for integrating in 1.1.0 are quite trivial. - code is self-contained and not affects other transcode parts. Quick sidenote: Transcode 1.0.4 is still scheduled for september 1st, 2007, as announced before. 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 (since alpha 3): transcode 1.1.0-alpha4 (20070825): ---------------------------------- - better flush code, fix xvid modules (closes bug #0000017). - internal decoder cleanup (pulled by other import layer fixes). - encoder fixes (closes bug #0000021, #0000028) - XML fixes: do not free internal tree if it was not created. (fixes issue #00000025). - minor V4L2 fixes. - export_pcm is back. Best regards, -- Francesco Romani // Ikitt [ Out of memory. ~ We wish to hold the whole sky, ~ But we never will. ]
