Announce: RVE -- a use for MPlayer's bitmap overlay filter
Most people who have RTFM'ed about -vop bmovl probably thought "Cool! But it seems very difficult to use". And it is. So I've created a helper program, like bmovl-test, except that this goes much further in terms of usefulness. Last week I used it to scroll messages across the screen and visualize movie voting on a big screen at a LAN party, and that worked almost flawlessly. It can also display images and animations, and even render text on top of an animation. One guy suggested using it for karaoke, which would also be possible if the code is written. A lot of cool effects can be created if you have some C++ knowledge, as RVE contains a bunch of very reusable classes and functions. RVE (Realtime Video Effects) can be found at <http://rve.sf.net>. Remember to read INSTALL before building and the online docs before running. -- Jonas Jensen <jbj@knef.dk>
