<br />> Hi
<br />>
<br />> Ok, here is my new attempt at bringing Mythtv 0.21 up to date, with
<br />> playback features similar to what's running in trunk but without any
<br />> of the new and fancy MythUI which unfortunately, isn't ready yet for
<br />> mainstream use.
<br />>
<br />> This build is based on 0.21-fixes with quite significant changes, the
<br />> main ones being:
<br />>
<br />> * FFmpeg has been updated to the version available in trunk. This adds
<br />> big improvement with h264 playback, and it should support much more
<br />> format and codec. All the videos I've tried so far have played rather
<br />> well
<br />> * Various improvements across the board, it should handle more nicely
<br />> when playback is failing.
<br />> * Various VDPAU improvements (I haven't released those patches yet).
<br />> In particular, the video corruption seen on some 720p channels should
<br />> have been fixed.
<br />>
<br />> I haven't published this information on the main mythtv mailing list,
<br />> as I know it would result in flaming by some individuals.
<br />>
<br />> I've only tested the frontend side, not the backend. While I'm pretty
<br />> sure it shouldn't break anything, you never know... If some people are
<br />> willing to risk it, I would appreciate. I will tomorrow when I have
<br />> more time.
<br />>
<br />> I haven't experienced a single crash or "Failure to init video" when
<br />> changing channels rapidly, no matter how fast I try to change them
<br />>
<br />> I've noticed that the 720p channels will not play nicely if you have
<br />> the AC3 upmixer activated with the "Linear" upmixing conversion, it
<br />> must be on "Passive". No clue why.
<br />>
<br />> I have a built with the latest ffmpeg , but there are still issues ,
<br />> so not releasing anything yet.
<br />>
<br />> Now: how to get it..
<br />>
<br />> I've built packages for Jaunty (Ubuntu 9.04) only. To access those
<br />> packages, you need to enable the "bleeding" repository.
<br />> Add "bleeding" to the component of my repository, or add the following
<br />> line to your apt.conf :
<br />> deb <a href="http://www.avenard.org/files/ubuntu-repos" target="_blank">http://www.avenard.org/files/ubuntu-repos</a> jaunty testing
<br />>
<br />> I've named the version 0.21.5 to avoid confusion in the future with
<br />> the other standard packages.
<br />>
<br />> Let me know how it goes.. If things go well, I will move those
<br />> packages to testing in the future and build them for all platforms.
<br />>
<br />> Jean-Yves
