Interesting.  A question: there's a guy with a DC10+ who is really
*struggling* to use software playback from stuff he captures.  Does
this work correctly for you?  There's something weird going on with
the JPEG data he's getting. Any other feedback from DC10+ owner
(especially ones saying: "Yes, I record mjpeg and play it back using
software decoding daily") very welcome.

Sigh... ;-)

Patches are ready for mergeing into the latest cvs version are ready. 
They're waiting pending a rebuild of the automake/autoconf scripts to
make compilation more flexible and robust.  The issue of
quicktime4linux linking its own internal jpeg lib remains though. 
This is a *major* pain as it makes it very hard to link against a
faster MMX lib instead.

Part of the problem is that the latest Qtime libs *seem* to demand
glic-2.2 which a lot of people don't have installed and is a pain to
upgrade because it breaks stuff.
