Hello,
After noticing that Cinelerra-HV 4.1 has a new FFMPEG-based file
reader (and then noticing with disappointment that it is rather
incomplete and doesn't work well), I set about writing an improved
version. Among other things, I needed something that could properly
handle odd-framerate HDV video (eg, the Canon 24F mode where a 24 fps
progressive scan stream is wrapped in a 30fps NTSC container with hard
telecine).
I have a test version of this FFMPEG-based loader available at:
http://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont/0001-Add-new-fileffmpeg.C-file-loader-to-allow-proper-han.patch
It will apply to current CV git using git apply. The patch is huge
mainly because a fairly recent ffmpeg is needed, and so it updates the
internal ffmpeg version to ffmpeg-0.6. Aside from updating the
internal ffmpeg and adding the new loader, it also disables the old
libmpeg3 loader (possibly a mistake--- but I was having more success
with the new loader) and the old .MOV/mpg4 loader (again, the new
loader handles all the files I tossed at it, where the old one
didn't). The only other change that snuck in by accident is a minor
autoconf fix for OpenGl detection (oops).
I'm currently using this new code in my own editing and a few others
in IRC have had good luck with it, but it very new and has seen only
light testing. Hopefully it will be useful to others as well.
Monty
