** Description changed: Theora 1.1 is a major quality/stability improvement over 1.0, and essential for making the FLOSS ecosystem work better. More information about the new release at http://theora.org/news/ - see also Christopher Blizzard's post at http://hacks.mozilla.org/2009/09/theora-1-1-released/ for the quality difference et cetera. 1.1 is should be of little risk and offer much better video quality, and stability of bitrate / file sizes for those encoding videos to this free format. 1.0 is essentially broken in being able to deliver the wanted file size. Decoding wise the bit stream format of Theora has been stable already for years, so there is no risk involved in the playback part. 1.1.0-1 is now in Debian - http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libt/libtheora/libtheora_1.1.0-1.dsc - changes at http://packages.qa.debian.org/libt/libtheora/news/20090927T072110Z.html . Ubuntu has currently no Ubuntu-specific changes in libtheora package. + + Theora 1.1 has been tested both via earlier PPA in this bug report's + comments and by building manually from Debian the Debian sources. It has + been successfully built for all official archs in Debian.
