Theora is Xiph.Org's first publicly released video codec, intended for
use within the Ogg's project's Ogg multimedia streaming system. Theora
is derived directly from On2's VP3 codec; currently the two are nearly
identical, varying only in encapsulating decoder tables in the bitstream
headers, but Theora will make use of this extra freedom in the future to
improve over what is possible with VP3.
This package contains the API documentation for libtheora.

Bump package revision because of these fixes. Changes approved by
Alistair Crooks.
Phonon is the Multimedia API for KDE and QT.
In Phonon there are three main concepts: MediaObjects, Paths and Outputs.
The MediaObjects control the playback/capture and provide the media data.
MediaObjects can be connected to Outputs using Path objects which also
allow the insertion of Effect objects between MediaObject and Output.

Swfdec is a decoder/renderer for Macromedia Flash animations. The
decoding and rendering engine is provided in a library that can be
used by other applications.
This package contains a Mozilla plugin that uses the Swfdec library
for playing SWF files in a browser capable of loading NS-Plugins.
XXX: installs plugin into lib/mozilla/plugins, needs to be linked
into correct place manually, until we get an infrastructure for firefox
plugins...
Swfdec is a decoder/renderer for Macromedia Flash animations. The
decoding and rendering engine is provided in a library that can be
used by other applications.
This package contains programs to integrate Flash functionality
into the GNOME desktop. Its main application is swfdec-player, a

This is the first bugfix release in the stable release series. It contains
mostly compilation fixes. No new features were added.
0.6.0 ("Fedora TV")
Here is the first API/ABI-stable release of Swfdec. Enjoy!

- rework the input handling subsystem. All objects (including sliders) can now
receive mouse events.
- stub all script functions and properties from Flash 8
- implement loading cross-domain policy files
- implement MovieClip.beginGradientFill (Yes, that function is big enough for
its own entry)
- various fixes to clipping
- Swfdec should compile and work fine on ARM architectures now
- lots of bug fixes and small features additions
- support reading text files in various formats
0.5.4 ("2 advanced")
Features left and right make this release. Unfortunately a lot of reorganization
was necessary. In particular this release contains:
- Swfdec supports FutureSplash movies now
- rewrite GStreamer audio and video back ends. They work perfectly now and are
the default and only enabled back ends. Other back ends are still available
via configure switches.
- support for the TextField object. This makes YouTube show the time correctly.
- support for ActionScript exception handling and inheritance actions Cast,
Implements, InstanceOf, Try and Throw.
- support for the MovieClipLoader object and loadMovie functions. This allows
Flash movies to load other Flash movies.
- support for loading JPEG and PNG images.
- add an initial and incomplete implementation of the Flash security framework
- Swfdec has a logo now
- make the player automatically abort when scripts get stuck
- add PulseAudio sound output back end, it can be disabled via configure switch
- cross-compilation should now work without issues.
- lots of small improvements
0.5.3 ("Tennis")
Lots of new built-in objects and code cleanup are the highlights of yet another
Swfdec release. And a little less condensed:
- rework of what APIs call into the script engine. This greatly simplifies using
libswfdec in applications.
- rework invalidation handling. Less parts of the screen need to be redrawn on
changes, but the SwfdecPlayer::invalidate signal changed.
- support the built-in Date, XML, Sound, System.capabilities and TextFormat
objects plus MovieClip drawing functions
- add initial support for blend modes and filters (full support is expected with
Cairo 1.6)
- clean up initialization, video engine, sound engine and shape parsing code.
All the code should now be more robust, easier to read and have less broken
corner cases. And Swfdec supports VP6 alpha video now.
- lots of old Flash files that use Flash 4-style paths to lookup values should
work correctly now.
- a huge list of bugfixes and little features, see the git log for details.
0.5.2 ("Kittencannon")
This release saw a lot of internal cleanups and only little new features. But
even that made a lot of files work and work better. Here's some detail:
- add initial support for Keyboard events. This makes quite some games work.
- add NetStream.close() functionality. This makes Youtube fullscreen work.
- export more API for debugging, like SwfdecScript and SwfdecAsDebugger.
- add new Vivified internal debugger that makes use of those.
- Swfdec can parse Flash 8 Buttons now.
- Swfdec should now set and handle all property flags correctly.
- implement LoadVars object
- make lots of native functions more correct for weird situations.
- various bugfixes, including some very visible ones. This should improve
playback for some Flash files a lot.
0.5.1 ("Heeeeelium")
Features! This release got some. And they even give you the long awaited
embedded Youtube support. At the cost of lots of API changes, but who cares?
- rewrite SwfdecLoader. Add SwfdecURL support structure in the process.
- implement AsBroadcaster actionscript object.
- implement Stage actionscript object. Movies can now do the scaling themselves.
- change the HTTP in swfdec-gtk from gnome-vfs to libsoup
- add an OSS backend for non-ALSA operating systems.
- various fixes to super and DefineFunction2 flags.
0.5.0 ("Meet Plan Party!")
Here's the long overdue update. Lots of backend stuff was rewritten. The only
thing that is missing now is more features. Expect them in the next releases.
- New and more correct script interpreter engine. The engine is even exported
for your coding pleasure.
- New instance placement handling algorithm. This one seems to produce much
better correctness results than the old one.
- More ActionScript bytecodes are supported, in particular CloneSprite and
RemoveSprite
- improve String reading in earlier Flash versions (Flash <=5 is Latin1, not
UTF8)
- implement some more Actionscript functions (most important is probably
createEmptyMovieClip ())
- lots of bugfixes
0.4.5 ("Death of the Desktop")
This is strictly a bugfix release. Have fun.
- fix linking issues on Solaris/BSD.
- fix various crashers.
0.4.4 ("Birthday Cards")
This is a stability release. The number of new supported Flash features
is limited.
- add initial support for some tags from Flash 8 (in particular
DefineShape4 and PlaceObject3)
- audio and video can now be decoded with GStreamer
- add new API in the form of libswfdec-gtk for people that want to
include Swfdec in their applications
- improve the JPEG decoding code (less crashy, more JPEGs decoded)
- throw zzuf (http://sam.zoy.org/zzuf/) at Swfdec and fix exposed
issues
- various fixes that make writing bindings simpler
- lots of bugs fixed, including: 10551, 10629
0.4.3 ("Your tube")
This release can play Youtube video. While this alone is enough for a
release, this was needed to make it possible:
- add lots of new features to the script interpreter, in particular
support for inheritance and the Object.registerClass function.
- rework the streaming and implement the NetStream, NetConnection and
XML script objects partially
- support passing variables to movies
- improvements to the JPEG decoder
- improvements to the debugging framework and the debugger
- support some more Flash 8 tags (in particular DefineFont3)
0.4.2 ("Two completely different numbers")
The main change for this release is changing script execution from
compiling to SpiderMonkey bytecode to executiong it manually. This made
it far easier and a lot more stable to run scripts. Other changes:
- Implement color transformations on images.
- Support some more ActionScript codes.
- Added swfdec_loader_get_filename() function to exported API.
- Allow compiling tests and tools without ALSA support
- Lots of bugfixes.
- Lots of new tests and debugging tools.
0.4.1 ("Dragostea din tei")
This release introduces video features. Quite a bit of internal
restructuring was necessary to achieve this. The API has been changed
from 0.4.0. Changes:
- swfdec_player_iterate has been replaced by swfdec_player_advance
- some functions (like swfdec_player_set_audio_advance) have been
completely removed. The same effect can be achieved by using
swfdec_player_advance.
- Add support for video playback. This does not include scripting
video.
- Add native FLV support to swfdec.
- Fix the caching layer. So SWF files with lots of images no longer
crash swfdec.
- Lots of bugfixes.
0.4.0 ("festivally plump")
This is the result of 3 months of refactoring, testing stuff and
generally playing around with swfdec. I'll try to list the big
changes:
- rip out support for outdated libart
- rip out included glib
- rework the object system to have a lot more objects
- split objects into "live" (SwfdecMovie, SwfdfecAudio), "static"
(SwfdecCharacter) and Javascript (JSObjects)
- compile Flash Actionscript codes into SpiderMonkey bytecode
- add testsuite
- reverse engineer script execution order
- reverse engineer seeking in sprite movies
- implement lots of other Actionscript functions
- documentation for public API
- removal of all plugins (the Mozilla plugin exists as a seperate
package now)
- new small test application (not installed)
- slightly bigger script debugging application (not installed)
0.3.6 ("5.11d")
This is less of a release and more of a "toss a bunch of code into
the air". You're not going to like this release, really. So don't
bother compiling it. Don't even bother downloading it. It really
just differently buggy than the last release. Certain parts may
feel more solid, like the mozilla plugin, but the entire experience
will probably just be slower and less featureful. I already know
there are problems, don't bother reporting them, since it will
simply remind me of how crappy this release is. The only redeeming
factor of this release is that it doesn't crash. Ever. Well,
except for the bugs. Backtraces and media files welcome. You
could even use the handy new pop-up menu in the Mozilla plugin to
report a bug, except that I don't have the website backend running
yet.

swscale is enabled. This allows older apps (such as vlc 0.8.6i) to run
without a specific ffmpeg package option and thus the swscale option is no
longer needed.
update to the boot package:
-#include <boost/detail/atomic_count.hpp>
+#include <boost/detail/atomic_count_pthreads.hpp>
As a side effect of this (the boost update and removed patch) youtube videos
now seem to play much more reliably under firefox3 on NetBSD 4.0
Bump package revision
#include <libpostproc/postprocess.h> to
#include <postprocess.h>
As is no longer needed (and breaks configure) with latest ffmpeg,
and instead patch filter_pp.c to include "libpostproc/postprocess.h"
instead of "postprocess.h"
Bump PKGREVISION
changes:
-Move the libcdio cddasrc element to -ugly, because of the GPL license
(no difference for pkgsrc, cdio isn't built)
remove build of v4l2 - I'll put this into a seperate pkg
Changes between 0.8.6i and 0.9.1:
---------------------------------
Note: version 0.9.0 was skipped due to bugs being discovered at the last
minute.
Important notes:
----------------
* This release will not work with Windows 98/ME and Mac OS X 10.3.9 (Panther)
* The HTTP interface is now only available on the local machine by default.
If you want to make it available from other machines, you will have to
edit the ".hosts" file.
- On UNIX/Linux, the file is in /usr/share/vlc/http/.hosts
If you're using the old http interface, it's located in
/usr/share/vlc/http/old/.hosts
- On Windows they are in C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\http\.hosts and
C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\http\old\.hosts
- On Mac OS X, you can find it in VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/share/http/.hosts
and respectively in VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/share/http/old/.hosts
* This version of VLC contains a new interface for Windows and Linux.
This interface has a fullscreen controller and simplified preferences.
This interface lacks the "Streaming Wizard" that used to be present in VLC
0.8.6.
* The behavior of --sout-keep was changed. It's now activated by default.
* The marq, mosaic and logo commands in the rc interface changed. They
now require a target name as their first argument. Example:
vlc --sub-filter "marq@test{marquee=Hello}" -I rc <somevideo>
You can then use commands like: @test marq-marquee Goodbye
If you didn't name the object using @test, its name will default to the
plugin name (hence 'marq') in this example.
These new commands are also available in the telnet interface.
* The "rtp" access output module has been removed.
Please use the RTP stream output instead, e.g.:
Old: '#std{access=rtp,mux=ts,dst=239.255.1.2:5004,sap}'
New: '#rtp{mux=ts,dst=239.255.1.2,port=5004,sap}'
* You now need to append --m3u-extvlcopt to your command line to enable
EXTVLCOPT options parsing in m3u playlists. Note that only a limited set
of options is available to m3u playlists (CVE-2007-6683).
* The old access:url syntax is no longer supported to resolve ambiguities
with some file names. Use access://url instead.
E.g.: vlc:quit -> vlc://quit ;
udp:@239.255.12.12 -> udp://@239.255.12.12
* The ffmpeg module has been removed and replaced by the new avcodec,
avformat, swscale (or imgresample if you use a swscale-less ffmpeg build)
and postproc modules.
* The web plugins ActiveX (IE)/Firefox/Mozilla/Safari now recognize the
following states: IDLE/CLOSE=0, OPENING=1, BUFFERING=2, PLAYING=3, PAUSED=4,
STOPPING=5, FORWARD=6, BACKWARD=7, ENDED=8, ERROR=9. With FORWARD and
BACKWARD being reserved for future implementations and are thus not
functional atm.
* Croping and padding in transcode are now done using the croppadd video
filter. For example:
transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vfilter=croppadd{cropttop=20,cropbottom=30,paddleft=100}}
* Canvas setting in transcode is now done using the canvas video filter.
For example:
transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vfilter=canvas{width=640,height=480}}
* Glide video output module has been removed.
* Due to lack of maintainer, the Skins interface might not work properly.
It does not work on windows for this version. Help is needed!

corresponding change to the mappings.xml file which is kept around
as source.
With thanks to Jared for the mapping information.

MediaTomb is an open source (GPL) UPnP MediaServer with a nice web
user interface, it allows you to stream your digital media through
your home network and listen to/watch it on a variety of UPnP
compatible devices.
MediaTomb implements the UPnP MediaServer V 1.0 specification that can
be found on http://www.upnp.org/. The current implementation focuses
on parts that are required by the specification, however we look into
extending the functionality to cover the optional parts of the spec as
well.
MediaTomb should work with any UPnP compliant MediaRenderer, please
tell the authors if you experience difficulties with particular
models, also take a look at the Supported Devices list for more
information.
With thanks to Jared Macneill for the patches to make this compile on
NetBSD.

list).

Goggles DVD Player is a frontend for the Ogle DVD player. Besides the
usual features like having a play button etc., Goggles tries to
provide features not often found in other DVD players. Since Ogle
in itself is only a DVD player, it has some neat capabilities that
"general" media players cannot provide. Goggles extends these
capabilities with a very user-friendly interface.
Goggles' attractive and responsive user interface is written using
the FOX Toolkit.
