* Terse/less technical ChangeLog:
- Add subtitle support to -x dvd
- Big endian fixes for wav audio handling
- Big xvid update, there are now 3 modules. Read the ChangeLog for this
- Bugfix for -z; thread issues caused image distortion
- Bugfix for libac3, can be compiled with -msse now
- Bugfix in -J text; transparency was broken.
- Bugfix in -y ogg; quoting related
- Bugfix in -x ogg; probing and decoding broken
- Bugfix: avimerge, -split and -sync were broken for PCM audio
- Docu: (Developer) internal architecture
- Docu: avisplit(1) explains what do about bad AVI sync.
- Docu: how to do framerate conversions with transcode
- Docu: transcode(1) explains the different meanings of -F
- Enable directory mode for pass-through AVI files with -y raw
- Filters can now take arguments at any length
- Fix sefault in tccat when called with no -i argument
- Improved -J 29to23; more accurate interpolation
- Improved -J 32detect; now searches chroma planes too
- Improved filter smartyuv; much faster now
- Improved filter cut; Make the filter aware of framerate changes
- Improved option --keep_asr; takes probed import asr into account
- Improved spec file
- Internal; New frame attribute TC_FRAME_IS_OUT_OF_RANGE
- Internal; config parser more generic
- Internal; really clone a frame
- MP2/MP3 synchword detection improved, better broken streams handling
- Native directory mode for -x auto,mp3
- Nearly bugfix when doing AC3-passthrough with multiple PSUs
- New command line option --export_fps N,frc
- New configure switch --with-default-xvid; creates a export_xvid symlink
- New contrib/mpipe.c; a simple tool for input data multiplexing
- New filter detectsilence; prints silence position in milliseconds
- New filter fps; convert framerate X to Y; similar to modfps
- New filter modfps; convert framerate X to framerate Y
- New filter msharpen; spatial sharpening
- New tool tcmp3cut which can cut mp3 streams at milliseconds positions
- No more Latin-1 characters -- Sorry Thomas Ö.
- Option -b now takes a 4th argument; lame encoding mode
- Re-enable detection of DIV3 keyframes with -x divx
- The linear blend deinterlace now also deinterlaces chroma
- Transcode now writes a correct AVI PCM header for windows players
- Variable framerate mpegs support
- Very much improved MacOSX support
- libtheora configure check update
- ./configure's lame detection improved
- print the correct PCM bitrate
- Nicer/correct printout for -r
- xml import moudle can read all af6 supported codecs
- clean up post-patch target to be less broken...
- update to transcode 0.6.7. besides bug fixes, major changes are:
- Experimental support for decoding and encoding divx5.0.5. I used
divx4linux-20030428 for development and testing.
- Added support for scanning MP3 files. tcscan will print the number
of MP3 chunks and the average bitrate of the file. It also
calculate the maximum AVI overhead.
- Simple color support for runtime warnings and errors. If you don't
like it disable it with --color 0 or --colour 0. If the output of
transcode is written to a pipe or file it will be automatically
disabled.
XXX - it doesn't run "aclocal" because the generated aclocal.m4 is wrong
and missing various required parts. the first failure comes from missing
HAVE_DLFCN_H macro which causes the build to fail... this of course means
it complains about wrong version of automake, but it seems to work for now.
transcode is a text console video-stream processing tool.
It supports elementary video and audio frame transformations.
Some example modules are included to enable import of MPEG-1/2,
Digital Video, and other formats. It also includes export
modules for writing to AVI files with DivX, OpenDivX, XviD,
Digital Video or other codecs. Direct DVD transcoding is also
supported. A set of tools is available to extract and decode
the sources into raw video/audio streams for import and to
enable post-processing of AVI files.
