codec tsccvid.dll: playback fails if vid.res. is 1024:768 (device is incompatible with this codec)
Hi mplayer-users and developers, I'm posting here because I got a tscc-codec problem and no answer/solution from the users list. The codec is in the codec-package of mplayer. I've a severe problem: I have here some lectures recorded with a screen capture tool developed by Techsmith. The playback of videos with 800:600 works fine but the new lectures are recorded with 1024:768 and the playback with the latest mplayer doesn't work: Opening video decoder: [vfw] Win32/VfW video codecs ======= Win32 (VFW) VIDEO Codec init ======= Loading codec DLL: 'tsccvid.dll' get_path('registry') -> '/home/thomas/.mplayer/registry' Loaded DLL driver tsccvid.dll ICDecompressGetFormatSize ret: 40 ICDecompressGetFormat OK VDec: vo config request - 1024 x 768 (preferred csp: Packed YUY2) [PP] Using codec's postprocessing, max q = 9.

If you can't RTFb (NEVER cut mplayer output!) then your post probably belongs on -users, not -advusers...
"selected video_out device" is incompatible with this codec is the first hint for me, so I tried different output devices and x11 color depth - no success. Has anybody a hint or solution to playback the video.
Your xv driver doesn't support video that big. Either see if you can configure the X server to reserve more space for xv, or scale the video down with software scaling (slow), or use a different vo (e.g. x11, which is slow, or maybe xvidix if possible). Rich
Thanks for your answer. I wouldn't have posted to the advanced user list if a solution for my problem were simple or at least an anwser that the codec doesn't work. So I've read the mplayer output, FAQ,searched the lists and tried different computers and output devices (xv,mga,xmga,dxr3,x11,fb,dga) running X11 (4.3.0) with different scale parameters. Nothing works for me. Beginners question: How to allocate more xv space ? My Computers have a matrox G400 32MB (1024:768) and a dxr3 and the other one a nvidia Geforce2MX with 64MB and a 19" 1280:1024 resolution running self compiled Xfree86 4.3.0. This is also configured in my XF86Config with correct agpgart, mtrr sizes and memory asignments. Next time I'll post the whole mplayer debug output but in my opinion this wouldn't be helpful. I'm not sure if the output error message is correct. Could the reason be the color space and changed color format . Are there known problems with 1024:768 vid res movies ? This aren't advanced questions but I didn't get any answers on the users list for my problem. I'm looking for someone who post a working output/command line option but I'm believing that there is no working solution with this codec. Thomas On Saturday 24 January 2004 09:02, you wrote:

You can't and you dont need to. It's a hw prob (although i thought an G400 could do a bigger overlay)

Leave the judgement to us. You wrote yourself that you dont exactly know what's going on, so you can't really decide what is usefull information and what not thus you should give us as much as possible. Beside, there is a reason why we wrote at section B.4 "not truncate the output" you should read that and the first paragraph of appendix B again.
I'm not sure if the output error message is correct. Could the reason be the color space and changed color format . Are there known problems with 1024:768 vid res movies ?
No, there are only hw problems known so far.
This aren't advanced questions but I didn't get any answers on the users list for my problem.
Maybe because you didnt follow bugreports.html ? Incomplete bugreports are ignored due to lack of time.
I'm looking for someone who post a working output/command line option but I'm believing that there is no working solution with this codec. Thomas

So the reason is definitly not the resolution but the colordepth/colorspace: I verified some "old" recorded lectures recorded with 8bit color depth. So completing the codecs.conf with the following lines will work with older lectures. The backward compatibility of the latest tsccvid.dll should be correct. Maybe someone has more extensions (YUY2,YV2) but I'm not sure, which color depth/spaces the camtasia recorded also uses to make a comlete codecs.conf update for the tscc codec. So there should be an update of the official codecs.conf ! Hopefully the mplayer team would do this before I got more emails from other users who contact me having the described problem. ; sample videos: http://www.techsmith.com/products/camtasia/examplevideos.asp videocodec camtasia info "TechSmith Camtasia Screen Codec" status working fourcc TSCC,tscc driver vfw dll "tsccvid.dll" out BGR24,BGR16,BGR15,BGR8 flip On Sunday 15 February 2004 16:18, Thomas Kranz wrote:

So the reason is definitly not the resolution but the colordepth/colorspace: I verified some "old" recorded lectures recorded with 8bit color depth. So completing the codecs.conf with the following lines will work with older lectures.

It seems that BGR15 is falling back to BGR16 (ignoring my codecs.conf with BGR15 only) playing the a BGR16 movie (not very wise I know). I can't verify BGR15 because I don't have a 15bit color depth recorded sample, so I can only guess that it will be work (cause 8bit and 16bit are working) . I've to make a deeper look into the camtasia codec, which formats are supported and can be recorded (I don't have installed the recorder, maybe trial of the recorded can be downloaded). BTW to audio codecs: One of my first lecture recordings cries for tsd32.dll depending on tssoft32.acm. It seems that this one is missing in the latest codecs distributed files. Forgotten or license problem is my question ? Sample file can be found at: http://porta.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/lectures/TI1/2001-2002WS/DownloadPac...

BGR15 is necessary for some videos. I found a video recorded with Playing 20021028.avi. AVI file format detected. VIDEO: [tscc] 1024x768 16bpp 5,023 fps 15,1 kbps ( 1,8 kbyte/s) adding BGR15 at first parameter displays the color correctly (BGR16 has wrong color output) So more tries and addons from other users are welcome to complete the codecs.conf. so far verified out BGR15,BGR24,BGR16,RGB32,BGR8 flip On Monday 16 February 2004 14:27, Thomas wrote:
