Changes:
- mkvmerge: bug fix: The Matroska reader doesn't insist on having
a default duration ( = FPS) for video tracks in the "AVI
compatibility mode" ( = with the CodecID "V_MS/VFW/FOURCC"). This
enables re-muxing of Matroska files created from MP4 files.
- mmg: bug fix: File names with non-ASCII characters were not
working if mmg was compiled against a Unicode enabled wxWidgets.
- mkvmerge: new feature: Added reading DTS from AVIs and from
Matroska files.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: A variable initialization was missing which
very recent gcc versions (3.4.2) did not like very much. Also
fixed a small compilation bug.
Changes since 1.0.1:
* xvidcore
o Fixed non compliant bvop decoding
(was using rounding=0 instead of rounding=1)
o Added better mv bound clipping for broken streams.
o Better behavior with content claiming not containing bvops
but eventually having bvops.
o Force fincr and fbase to be < 16bit.
o Fixed thread safety problem in C language iDCT implementation.
* VFW frontend
o Memory leak
__func__ declaration, but the "CC" (C++) compiler does not. The configure
script for this package tests for __func__ but only invokes the C frontend,
causing failures later as it uses both C and C++ compilers. Explicitly
disable this functionality when using SunPro.
automatically by pthread.buildlink3.mk. Also, factor out the pthread
library out of PTHREAD_LDFLAGS into a standalone variable PTHREAD_LIBS
and use it in packages where necessary (usually the ones that don't
have a GNU configure script).
Changes:
- dvdxchap accepts a range of chapters to output and adjusts
the timestamps. Patch by Olivier Rolland.
- ogmcat accepts files that contain a single track whose serial
nubmers don't match. This is the case for audio-only Ogg files.
not beeing installed (these were here in the first place because I had
gtk-doc installed while updating the package). Bump PKGREVISION to 1.
Fixes problem shown in kristerw@'s bulk build.
Changes:
- mkvmerge: bug fix: The handling of external timecode files was
still not correct but should be OK now.
- mmg: Added an error message if the user selects 'mmg' as the
'mkvmerge executable' because that would lead to an infinite
number of 'mmg's being spawned.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: If LFE is on for DTS then the number of
channels is one more than what the DTS frame header says.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: Timecodes for Vorbis were wrong on rare
occasions (when reading laced Vorbis from a Matroska file and
changing the lacing, e.g. when splitting for the second and all
following files).
- mkvmerge/mkvinfo/mkvextract: bug fix: The chapter and tag
element tables were not always intialized correctly depending on
the compiler and the optimization flags used.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: The OGM reader was broken if at least one
track was not to be copied from the file (happened between 0.9.5
and 0.9.6).
- mmg: bug fix: After loading saved mmg settings the track input
box listed the tracks always coming from the last input file and
not from the one they really came from.
- mmg: enhancement: Made mmg's main window properly resizable.
- mkvmerge: Rewrote the code for the external timecode files. This
also fixes bug 99: The durations for the individual tracks were
not correct for those tracks for which --timecodes was used.
- mmg: bug fix: Crash when saving chapters from the chapter
editor. Same as the mkvinfo issue below but on all OS.
- mkvinfo: bug fix: The chapter and tag element tables were not
initialized on Windows resulting in a crash when one of those
elements was encountered.
Changes since 0.8.6:
* important playback thread fix
* typefind fix for non-seekable streams
Changes since 0.8.5:
* spider, queue fixes
* fakesrc and identity now have a datarate property
* dataprotocol threadsafety fix
Bugs fixed since 0.8.5:
* 136962 : crc error when decoding flac with typefind and threads
* 150001 : [PATCH] Mem leaks in gstpad.c, gstxml.c and gstelement.c
* 150262 : gstreamer.spec file needs correction to work with rpmbuil...
* 150626 : bug trying to play a theora web stream
* 153657 : make typefind prevent unneeded discont element
* 153881 : [PATCH] in-code C declarations
API changes since 0.8.5:
- API additions:
* The "fakesrc" element now has a datarate property.
* The "identity" element now has a datarate property.
New Features:
- Added support for Annodex bitsream format. The Annodex bitstream
format is a subset of the Ogg encapsulation format: it"s basically
Ogg with extra timing information, so that time-based stream
- Added support for VobSub-in-Matroska (Vobsub is raw subtitle
stream from a DVD. This patch enables support for VobSub
- Added support for 44100Hz DTS in .wav files
- Added experimental time stretching plugin: play stream faster or
slower than original speed, optionally preserving pitch
- Added configure option for building xine with external ffmpeg
library
- Added api for finer playback speed control (requires frontend
support)
- Added support for QuickTime 6.3 DLLs
- Added support for mp3 audio in mp4 files
- Added support for using utf-8 for matroska subtitles
Also create a link "default" pointing to the "Blue" skin so that "gmplayer"
will work again if no skin is selected. Bump package revision because
of that.
listings stored in the XMLTV format, which is based on XML. The idea is to
separate out the backend (getting the listings) from the frontend (displaying
them for the user), and to implement useful operations like picking out your
favourite programmes as filters that read and write XML documents.
At present there are backends grabbing TV listings for Canada, the USA, the UK,
Germany, Austria, Finland, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Hungary, Denmark,
Japan, Sweden, France, Norway, and Romania.
are static, so libtool will refuse to create a working module.
Instead, link those libraries into the transcode binary itself (libvout was
already being so linked) and remove them from the module link arguments.
Changes:
- mkvextract: bug fix: The track extraction was creating the
output file twice if the Matroska file contained a copy of the
track headers. This resulted in the first extracted file being
overwritten at the end of extraction.
- mmg: bug fix: If the file title is read from an input file, not
modified by the user and that input file is removed again then the
file title will be unset.
- mkvmerge: enhancement: Converted the raw FLAC reader to use
another interface to the FLAC libraries. This results in a speedup
of up to 50%. Thanks to Josh Coalson for telling me about its
existence.
- mkvmerge: new feature: Added two warnings. One about invalid
track IDs that were used on the command line but that don't
correspond to an available track in a file and one if no track
will be copied from a source file. Both warnings hint at bad
command line arguments.
- mkvmerge: Only write the segment duration as a 64bit float if
there is no video track present. This way users won't have to
update their DirectShow filter/apps for most files. Only
audio-only files need this precision anyway.
- mkvmerge: Changed the Ogg/OGM reader to use the stream number
and not its serial number as the track ID (meaning the track IDs
will be 0, 1, 2... etc. instead of the random numbers oggenc uses
as the serial numbers).
- mkvmerge: new feature: The CUE sheet parser now accepts INDEX
lines with indices from 00 up to 99 and implements the Red Book
specification for audio CDs that way. Patch by Vegard Pettersen
<vegard_p at broadpark adot no>.
- mkvmerge, mkvextract: bug fix: ASS was handled like SSA which is
not correct in each case, especially when extracting it.
- mkvextract: bug fix: The WAV writer was not endian safe.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: The charset was not set correctly on Solaris.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: mkvmerge crashed when reading Matroska files
that contain an empty tag list.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: Some Matroska files that e.g. have had their
timecodes offset with the Matroska Stream Editor or other means
may contain timecodes that caused mkvmerge to print a warning
about "timecode < last_timecode". A new fix implements a
workaround and a warning message with a proper explanation for
this case.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: Older Matroska files containing chapters
caused mkvmerge to abort muxing.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: mkvmerge was only copying the last tag of a
list of tags applying to a track from a Matroska file.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: mkvmerge will show a nice warning if the
entries in a SRT have non-continuous timestamps. It'll also sort
the entries by their start timestamp instead of throwing the
generic "timecode < previous timecode" warning.
- mmg: bug fix: The 'Matroska file analysis' window that occurs
when reading chapters from a Matroska file did not disappear if it
was minimized when the process finished.
- mkvmerge: new feature: Added a new parameter
--aspect-ratio-factor.
- mkvinfo: bug fix: Strings from chapters and tags were shown in
UTF-8 instead of the local charset. This bug was introduced around
2004-08-28.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: Not all chapter elements were copied
correctly from a source Matroska file.
- mkvextract: Sped up the extraction of attachments, chapters,
cuesheets and tags by using the seek head information and not
parsing the full file each time.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: The Matroska reader was not handling very big
cluster timecodes correctly. Those can occur when the timecode
scale factor is very small.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: Empty clusters in Matroska files no longer
make mkvmerge think that file has been read completely.
- mkvmerge: new feature: Added support for MP2 (and maybe MP3)
audio in MP4 containers.
- mkvmerge: new feature: The chapter and tag parsers accept XML
element attributes instead of sub-elements for those sub-elements
that only contain data. Example for a "simple tag":
<Simple Name="ARTIST" String="Tori Amos"/>
- mkvmerge: bug fix: The automatic MIME type detection based on
the file name extension was using the file name extension as the
MIME type.
- mkvmerge, mkvinfo: new feature: Added the four new PixelCrop
elements.
- mkvmerge, mkvextract, mkvinfo: new feature: Added
'TargetTypeValue' as a supported tagging element.
- mkvmerge, mkvextract, mkvinfo: Complete rewrite of the chapter
and tag parsing and output functions. Additions will be much
easier now.
- mkvmerge, mkvextract, mkvinfo: feature removed: Dropped support
for the very old and deprecated tagging system. No one used it
anyway.
- mkvmerge: new feature: Allow the use of two-letter ISO639-1
country codes in for the '--language' parameter. Those will be
converted to the corresponding ISO639-2 language code
automatically.
- mkvmerge, mkvinfo, mkvextract: new feature: Added support for
the 'TargetType' tag element
- mkvmerge: bug fix: The MP3 handling was broken on weird and rare
occasions when reading MP3 from a Matroska file.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: Removed a bogus warning about an attachment's
MIME type having been given more than once.
Changes:
- EditionProcessed has a default value (0) according to the specs.
- KaxEditionManaged becomes KaxEditionProcessed and mandatory
KaxEditionManagedPrivate becomes KaxChapterManagedPrivate
- no more automatic OutputSamplingFrequency default value
- add support for KaxChapterProcessCommand and KaxEditionManagedPrivate
- The ValidateSize function is neither needed nor correct (probably copy
& paste from somewhere). Integers of all sizes are accepted as in all
the other UID cases.
- allow DLL building with MSVC7 (not compatible with the MinGW DLLs)
- KaxTagTargetTypeValue default to 50
- TargetTypeValue is no longer mandatory
- Fixed the wrong element names.
- add KaxTagTargetTypeValue as in the specs
- add KaxChapterPhysicalEquiv as in the new specs
- add KaxChapterProcess and KaxChapterProcessTime
- add the new PixelCropXXX elements
- added KaxEditionFlagDefault and KaxEditionManaged
- add the new TargetType element in tags
- Set the default value for KaxTagLangue to "und" complying with
the specs.
Changes:
* akodelib: Fixed decoding of Ogg/Vorbis on big-endian machines
* akode-artsplugin: Fixed artsd-crash when playing in Konqueror
* juk: Fixed a bug where JuK sometimes crashes on KDE logout.
* juk: Fixed the removeTrack() DCOP call, which caused an infinite
memory-leaking loop.
* juk: JuK now automatically saves your playlists every 10 minutes.
* juk: The tree view mode uses a case-insensitive search to fill its
dynamic playlist now, matching the internal method of operation.
* juk: The tag editor no longer loses changes when you hide the tag editor.
* juk: Added checks for the return value of opendir(), which could fail if
you don't have read permission for the directory.
* juk: Update status bar after changing the tags on the currently playing
item.
* juk: Fixed a bug where a tree view mode playlist could be deleted out
from under an item that needed to access it.
* juk: Fixed the GUI layout to also work in right-to-left languages.
* juk: Update the status bar when a different playlist is selected.
* juk: Always show the playing playlist in the status bar, fixing a
regression from KDE 3.2.
* kscd: Fix saving of cd-information
Changes since version 0.8.3
- Auto hiding in fullscreen fix
- Mencoder recording fix for URLs
- Yet another spurious seek locking Xine when playing a playlist
- Comment out NoExpose debug line with kxineplayer
Changes since version 0.8.3-rc5
- Two more regression fixes in show cache progress, get rid of spurious seek
command caused by switching progress slider usage and don't update playing
position if there is no position change (might fill cache instead).
- Xinerama fix, fullscreen on display where video widget is on.
Changes since version 0.8.3-rc4
- Fix regression in show cache progress in 0.8.3-rc2, which made the xine
backend hang on some web movies
- Ripped out the arts volume slider. Now you only get a volume slider if you
run kmix standalone or as an applet in kicker.
- Try to limit symbols in the shared objects by using KDE_NO_EXPORT. Although
hard to measure, hopefully speed up loading the plugin
- New recorder (mplayer -dumpstream) from Stefan Siegel
produced by kaudiocreator to be one sector too short, which in turn caused
flac to barf on the "garbage" at the end. Now kaudiocreator can actually
read and encode an entire CD.
