Hi,

...

Just tested the first beta of Projectmayo's new divx 3.11 (ms-mpeg4v3) and 4.0 (opendivx 0.48) codec:

What? Where? How? When? Why? It wasn't released yet. The release was planned at last monday, but it was delayed many times. Latest planned release time is tomorrow.

It's a native linux dynamic library, containing code for different CPU's and uses CPU autodetection. I got the beta from Eugene for testing. It isn't public yet (AFAIK). They can't (or don't want?) release source, only in binary form. They said that it's because of licensing problem, divx 3.11 decoding is illegal this way, and maybe they are using some code or tables from the win32 DLL... I (and also Eugene) hope that it will change to LGPL soon, and they will release sources. The API is 95% compatible with opendivx-CVS, but has some new options, like DivX ;-) 3.11 decoding, and memory allocation changed a bit. Btw it's quite buggy, crashes playing files encoded with opendivx 0.47, and crashes for everything if postprocessing is enabled. The encoder engine is based on Eugene's "Sparky" codec. I haven't tested it yet but seems to be nice, at least has many tuneable parameters :) (even the behaviour of the quantization and bitrate control is tunable with many parameters) A'rpi / Astral & ESP-team -- mailto:arpi@thot.banki.hu http://esp-team.scene.hu _______________________________________________ Mplayer-dev-eng mailing list Mplayer-dev-eng@lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mplayer-dev-eng
