Reinhard I'm excited to hear about the progress with dropping many patches and streamlining the process for synching from SVN. I'm also thankful for your interest in bug 263153 which I think is likely fixed in the latest gstreamer ffmpeg plugin release. I understand about person power and I will comit to helping you with testing new ffmpeg releases and related applications. I have a test library that involves many different containers and compression types and other features. I'm somewhat new to gstreamer but I've got a pretty solid understanding of digital media technologies and practices. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
