[e-users] Video2Edje

2008-11-30 Thread Andreas Volz
Hello,

I had the idea that it would be possible to write a script that
converts a video to images and then generate edc source and compile a
pure Edje based video.

Not sure if this is useful, but it should be possible. Has anyone yet
tried something like this?

regards
Andreas

benr did this once - taking monsters (movie) and making a .edj. the problem is
- edje will be much worse at compressing it. the same movie will be easily
5-10x the size as you need to use 1 jpeg per frame. there is no way to use
inter-frame commonalities for compression. this is something that was/is on a
todo for edje at some point - proper video codec support.

Yeah, I remember kfish saying that integrating OGG should not be too
dificult if we use the same helper library they used for Firefox's
HTML5 support. I just don't recall the name :-/

that was a possible target. ogg theora or dirac. one requirement i have is
that the codec supports an alpha channel - that is the biggest problem. vtorri
was working on a lossless codec that has alpha a bit back (basically ARGB using
deltas so we get lossless animation but with temporal compression with alpha).
this would be the video equivalent to COMP compression used in EDJE. we just
need a LOSSY equivalent for video :)
