I don't know gavl, but it if it is close to as good as vlc/mplayer/
ffmpeg for reading codecs, it would be an improvement over Quicktime.
it is very close to vlc/mplayer/ffmpeg. in fact, it might even read
more formats depending on what options you compile in.
gavl is already in macports so making a fink package should be easy,
then it could be part of the nightly builds.
What about using ffmpeg for something like readanysf~? Its much more
widely deployed, its even on Windows.
the gavl/gmerlin_avdecoder combo uses libavcodec and libavformat from
ffmpeg (as does mplayer) to play a lot of encoded audio/video streams.
In addition to that, (like mplayer and I assuem VLC) it links in other
libs to decode even more types of audio/video streams.
Another option is to check in a version of gavl and the related
packages to the pure-data SVN and have it build the library then
build
readanysf~. Since gavl/gmerlin is not fully packaged on any
platform,
I think this makes sense.
yes, and AFAIK the gavl package in debian is already over a year old
and
is not compatible with readanysf~.
I forgot to mention, the list of libs installed on the MinGW build
machine is here:

It is possible to add more. Basically, you need to import the sources
into the 'pure-data/sources' tree in pure-data SVN. That's the tree
for the MinGW setup. You can check the import-tarball.sh script to
see the process for importing a tarball there. When adding libs, the
build-libs-on-mingw.sh script should build and install everything
needed.
And lastly, on Windows, its best to do SVN operations in Cygwin via
ssh, then run builds using MinGW via rdesktop.

Looking at things from a more basic level, you can come up with a more
direct solution... It may sound small in theory, but it in practice,
it can change entire economies. - Amy Smith
