hi, these are some avifile-related questions for the experts on this list :-)
to implement a time-shift function in an existing tv viewer (i.e. xawtv), one would need to constantly log the video into a stream, that can be played by another process without closing the file. - which codec supported by libavifile would be usable for that purpose (divx apparently isn't)? (must support streaming and index search) - is it possible to open the video access (v4l) nonblocking, so when using vcr for example (or other program), it's still possible to start xawtv (or other program) and still be able to connect to video? - codec should also support deleting front parts of the file regularly to keep videolog under certain size is anyone already thinking/working in such a direction, or knows of any projects that do? many thanks! -- ciao, Stef ------------------------------------------------------------- Stefan Ohrhallinger [EMAIL PROTECTED] [NEW!] Taborstr. 18/124 http://stef.home.dhs.org A-1020 Wien ++43.1.2183326 _.-| | |\__/,| (`\ public key ID: 0xB867C1D0 { | | |o o |__ _) ) |\ _,,,---,,_ "-.|___| _.( T ) ` / /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ .--'-`-. _((_ `^--' /_< \ |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-' .+|______|__.-||__)`-'(((/ (((/ '---''(_/--' `-'\_) \_) _______________________________________________ Avifile mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://prak.org/mailman/listinfo/avifile
