Ffmpeg support for stepmania-cvs

I have been looking into adding ffmpeg support for the stepmania-cvs package. The main problem is that StepMania will continue to depend on the old 0.4.9-pre1 version of ffmpeg in order for video support to work properly. Following the directions on the StepMania website were not that helpful but I have found a slightly easier way to build StepMania with ffmpeg built into the application; a lot of the time was spent trying to find a decent configuration. The 0.4.9-pre1 version of ffmpeg would only be required to build StepMania but, since the required ffmpeg libraries will be built into StepMania, it is not required to run the application so the older version of ffmpeg can then be uninstalled or be replaced with the current ffmpeg package in extra.
I was wondering whether the people who are using stepmania-cvs would want ffmpeg support included and would be willing to put up with the hassle of installing a custom ffmpeg package during every install and upgrade. The stepmania-cvs package will only be updated when a new Windows CVS snapshot is released if people want this change. I want stepmania-cvs to closely resemble what is included with the Windows snapshots and the current CVS snapshot does include video support in the application.
The video support isn't that great with either the version that I have built or with the Windows CVS snapshot. Playing video seems to bog down StepMania a bit; it isn't really noticable most of the time. I have messed around with the StepMania 3.9 source code and video playback is a lot better with that version.
In case anyone is wondering, I have thought about making a PKGBUILD that would build StepMania 3.9 from source instead of using the pre-built binary package like the current one does. The main reason for continuing the use of the binary package was because of the ffmpeg issue, including conflicting with any current ffmpeg installation, and because there is no option to build StepMania 3.9 without ffmpeg support. Now, it is because StepMania 3.9 will not build with the current version of sdl in the Arch repository; it will build with the 1.2.9 package. So, I am still going with my stance of not worrying about making a PKGBUILD that makes StepMania 3.9 from the source code.
This has been a long winded post but I would really appreciate any feedback on this issue. I would personally like to have ffmpeg support in the stepmania-cvs package but I don't want to inconvenience others if other people don't want to deal with the hassle of getting ffmpeg support working.
Random: Something that is a lot better with the Linux version of StepMania 4.0 CVS are the load times. With the current Windows CVS snapshot, it takes like 5 seconds to go to the song selection screen, no matter if it is after loading StepMania for the first time or after playing a song, while the Linux version takes around 1 second.

I guess that nobody will have a problem with video support being added to the stepmania-cvs package. I just updated stepmania-cvs with the necessary changes for video support to work. Just like when the stepmania package was uploaded to the AUR, I posted a little howto for installing stepmania-cvs with the most recent changes. The howto is the last comment posted on the AUR page for stepmania-cvs. I am also messing around with making a custom repository. So far, I have put up some of my packages from the AUR. The repository will include pre-built packages of stepmania and stepmania-cvs. In order to access my repository, add the following two lines to /etc/pacman.conf:
[ryochan7]
Server = http://bored.homelinux.net/arch/ryochan7
Then run pacman -Sy. My upload connection isn't that great (peaks around 45 KB/s) so it might take a while to download any package from my repository.

  • Web Hosting w/ FFMPEG Support

    I am creating a video sharing section on my site and I need
    FFMPEG support for on-the-fly video conversions and thumbnails. My
    current host does not offer support for FFMPEG. I looked into
    CirtexHosting and everything seemed good except the disk space.
    Even the most expensive plan only offers 30GB, which is definitely
    not enough. My host now offers 300GB and double the monthly
    bandwidth for nearly 1/3 of the cost. Does anyone know of a good,
    affordable host that offers lots of disk space and FFMPEG
    support?

    I think it will be hard to find shared hosting that allows
    ffmpeg support,
    most shared hosting packages limit the amount of time and
    resources an
    operation can use, ffmpeg would consume lots of CPU resources
    and slow-down
    other sites on the same server. I've run similar applications
    on the
    windows platform (Windows Media server / Encoder) on a
    dedicated server from

  • Support for Software Configuration Management(SCM) Tools

    Hi!,
    I am using JDevloper for my project.
    I want to maintain the versions of all files in the project.Also,if all are using one Workspace on network and someone updates a file then message box got dispalyed asking for reloading buffers again.
    So to avoid this and maintain versions I want to use Software Configuration Management (SCM)Tools.So does JDeveloper supports for SCM tools?If yes kindly tell me how to use it?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    The upcoming release of JDeveloper (3.2) has support for SCM. In this release, support has been integrated with Oracle's own SCM product, Oracle Repository. In future releases, other SCM products (e.g. CVS) will be supported.
    When JDeveloper 3.2 is released (should be available at the end of Nov / start of Dec), the installation guide will have full details on how to install the Oracle Repository and use the SCM integration in JDeveloper.
    In 3.1 or earlier, a custom addin exists for JDeveloper that can be used to support SCM systems (see JDeveloper documentation on OTN). However, this is not as tightly integrated as the new SCM support coming in 3.2.

  • Why Do People Make and Provide Software and Support for Free?

    Hey all, I discovered Linux and open source software a little over 4 years ago now. It transformed the way I thought about software and using the computer. So now in my senior year of college I have chosen for open source software to be the subject of my thesis.
    The topic of this thread is the research question of my thesis. But it is also question that I have been thinking about for the last couple years or so. Why do people decide to write software and then give it out for free for all to modify? The second has to do with forums like these. I have always wondered why people do help support on these forums for free when they can be making money doing the exact same thing. Below I will write 13 research questions that you guys can give me your answers or philosophy too.
    1. How long have you been using Linux?
    2. How did you learn/find out about Linux?
    3. Why have you chosen Linux over other operating systems available?
    4. Why did you choose to use your current distribution?
    5. Do you still use any closed source programs that are not available for Linux?
    6. Tell me the reasons that you contribute to the community?
    7. What do you think motivates others to contribute to the community?
    8. In your opinion, what reasons do you think others provide software to everyone for free?
    9. In what ways do you feel contributing to the community could benefit someone's future/career?
    10. What is it about contributing or programming that you enjoy most? Is there any aspects you dislike?
    11. Are you a member of other non-software communities? Such as a church, voluntary organizations or charities?
    12. Does your open source work spillover with any other areas of your life?
    13. If you provide support on forums such as these, why do it for free?
    You DO NOT have to answer all 13 of the questions above. Please just pick out the ones that you feel are most important or interesting to answer. If someone else says something that you think is interesting feel free to respond to them if you agree or disagree.
    If anyone wants to take this discussion further with me than the forum, I will absolutely love too! Just please send me a private message on here and we can figure out further ways of contacting each other.
    I plan on using your user names on this forum to identify people in my paper. If any of you are uncomfortable with me using your username in my paper, please let me know! I will be monitoring this thread on a day by day basis for the next two months or so, until my thesis is complete. If you guys have any other questions that pop up, please do not hesitate to ask! Thank you all in advance for responding!

    hockeyfighter09 wrote:1. How long have you been using Linux?
    Roughly 3 years, with about 2 of those full-time. Tried out for 6 months a couple of years before that, but didn't stick.
    hockeyfighter09 wrote:2. How did you learn/find out about Linux?
    Older relatives/friends mentioned it in passing due to my interest in computers, was pointed to the (then-new) Ubuntu and actually given a CD (which I never used). Did read up a bit about it at the time, though.
    hockeyfighter09 wrote:3. Why have you chosen Linux over other operating systems available?
    Frustration with fixing Windows. Most of that came from my tinkering with it with a bunch of patches/hacks/cracks etc, necessitating a reformat every few months. Oh, and viruses would pop-up once in a while. Mac was always out of my budget (was a student, am still not done with my post-grad).
    hockeyfighter09 wrote:4. Why did you choose to use your current distribution?
    Ubuntu got quite frustrating from two aspects:-
    1. 'Freeze' policy kept creating lousy bugs. I would have maybe 12 external ppas enabled and of course they wouldn't always play nice with each other, simply because the repos I had been so in awe of when first starting out didn't actually contain all that many useful programs. Used Mint for a while, same problem (now I understand it was the same base).
    2. SNR of forums - When I first joined ubuntuforums it was like heaven-on-earth, so HELPFUL, so many replies almost instantly. It took me roughly 1 and a half months to notice that probably only 2 regular posters were worth listening to, the rest were trying to help with no knowledge to back them up.
    So I tried Sidux, OpenSuse, Fedora, and finally read about Arch. Installed it side-by-side, and viola, it was fun! I like tinkering, basically, and Arch allows me to do it far more than Ubuntu/Windows (I class Ubuntu as similar to Windows by now) ever did.
    hockeyfighter09 wrote:5. Do you still use any closed source programs that are not available for Linux?
    Yes, some games through wine (not sure if that counts as 'available for Linux'. I do not boot into Windows at all, anymore (though its on my laptop).
    hockeyfighter09 wrote:6. Tell me the reasons that you contribute to the community?
    One of the best things I like about open-source is how most active projects have a community around them. So its not just software, but people working together (of course with heirarchies etc.), fits my Utopian view of how things 'should be(tm)'. I'm a sucker for Utopia, so I try to feed the community as far as possible.
    hockeyfighter09 wrote:7. What do you think motivates others to contribute to the community?
    A combination of 6. and substituting social deficiencies. Some come across as not actually having much of a social life (probably lack of those sharing nerdy interests in their area) and substituting that in online communities. This isn't really Linux specific, more internet-community specific.
    hockeyfighter09 wrote:8. In your opinion, what reasons do you think others provide software to everyone for free?
    Perspective of personal developer (one-man projects), I think its a mix of altruism (probably 20-30%), pride (50%) and commercial sensibility (the rest). Most of it is pride, the knowledge that many use my software.
    For companies, as mentioned above, its very financially viable, especially in already-saturated markets.
    hockeyfighter09 wrote:9. In what ways do you feel contributing to the community could benefit someone's future/career?
    Not much, honestly. My career-line is education/engineering, so not much scope there. For someone in the computer sciences, of course there'd be more benefit, but not more than investing the same amount of time into part-time work to expand your portfolio. So for the INDIVIDUAL I believe participating in the community does not bring future/career benefits, we do it because we enjoy the community and want to see it succeed.
    hockeyfighter09 wrote:10. What is it about contributing or programming that you enjoy most? Is there any aspects you dislike?
    The sense of achievement, that what you do is useful to someone. The BIG dislike is when other members of the community don't feel the same way. There will always be members who are demanding (customer mentality) or abrasive (big tough guy mentality). Both are 'big city' mentalities with no place in the 'homely-little-town' community of Linux (that's how I see it anyway).
    Oh, and noobs answering questions with no knowledge (something I've done before as well) are more annoying than noobs asking questions, personal opinion
    hockeyfighter09 wrote:11. Are you a member of other non-software communities? Such as a church, voluntary organizations or charities?
    I'm very active in my church (various leadership roles), and regularly help out at my fiance's NGO (mostly video work, ffmpeg and cinelerra stuff). A child sponsor and blood donor, etc. etc.
    hockeyfighter09 wrote:12. Does your open source work spillover with any other areas of your life?
    I don't 'work' on open-source, so a bit of a N/A here. What small patches I provide, or the moderating I do here, is just small contributions. Doesn't spill over to any other areas of my life, because computers are like that, compartmentalized away from the 'real world' (cue Matrix theme tune).
    hockeyfighter09 wrote:13. If you provide support on forums such as these, why do it for free?
    Like I said, in a small village community setting, people help and are helped for free. I do tech support for friends/relatives in RL for free, so on the forums, for very little time invested, why not?
    In answer to litemotiv - yes control is MUCH more important than freedom. I've never really been taken by all of RMS' screaming and ranting. I'm an engineer by training, I want to know what's going on (to a reasonable degree) and control it. Philosophical discussions are interesting but ultimately a waste of time.

  • 1.5 - Versioning Support for ADE

    Hi,
    Our team has been using CVS for version control but now we are moving to ADE. Is there any extension that provides integrated support for ADE from within SQL Developer? How do i get it?
    If not, are there any plans to do so? I did not find a feature request for this. Can I log one?
    Please let me know.
    Thanks!
    Arvind
    P.S. - I know that JDeveloper supports ADE so I think it would be easy to extend the same to work with SQL Developer.

    Look at the Announcements on the top of this forum where it says Feature Request... follow the link and put in a request :) Have a good one.

  • Lack of support for Canon G7 and G9. Alternatives?

    I am really disappointed about the lack of support for the Canon G9, and looking at the list of compatible cameras (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306835) I notice that Canon G7 - even if it does not have a RAW format, is not supported either.
    I am thinking that the purchase of the G9 may have been premature and that I may need to sell it and get another cam that is supported by Apple/Aperture.
    What would you guys do? Is there a cam out there similar to the G9 at the moment that has a Apple-supported RAW format?
    Best regards,
    Kjell Are Refsvik

    I think the camera closest to the G9 that has RAW support from Apple are the Panasonic DMC-LX2/Leica D-Lux 3 twins. Don't know where you are, but in the US, the Panasonic costs about $400. 10MP, 28-112mm (35mm equivalent) Leica lens, very compact body, and RAW output. The Leica costs $599, and has that classic look.
    I don't know much about that cameras, but you may want to investigate.

  • Why no SyncML-support for Harmattan??

    I've used SyncML on my N95 with memotoo.com for years. Worked very well. I took it for granted that SyncML would be supported on the N9. But alas, it isn't. I find that really incomprehensible. Worse yet, CalDAV syncing with memotoo doesn't work - I don't know who's to blame for this, but on the desktop it works flawelessly so I do have a suspicion. Even worse: there is no way to sync contacts using CardDAV.
    MeeGo (the true MeeGo) has SyncML-support out-of-the-box. And the N9/N950 does have SyncML-support for bluetooth.
    Yes, contacts syncing is supported for Ovi. And Google. And Facebook. But I do NOT want to use those services, because of grave privacy risks and because they use yet again some proprietary protocols.
    I wonder, what where they thinking at Nokia for NOT supporting some well-known open standards??
    (While I'm ranting: why is there ^%@$ Facebook and GTalk-support over XMPP, but no self-defined XMPP account?? Yes, you can add such accounts from the terminal, using mc-tool, but really that's just a kick in the teeth. And where's UPnP/DLNA-support?)

    Hey Guys, Did you figure out any way to do PIM sync via SyncML on N9?
    I am struggling to get things moving as I come from N8.
    N9 just doesnt have any way to sync calendar, tasks with Ovi. Same with Notes.

  • ISE 1.2.1 support for Yosemite?

    Hello all, just curious. I see in the release notes for ISE 1.2.X that support for Mac OS 10.10 (Yosemite) was available via patch 12 on the ISE1.2.0 train of code. That said, I see nothing in the release notes stating any support for Yosemite for any of the patches for ISE1.2.1, the latest being patch 3 released 1 week after ISE 1.2.0 patch 12. Can anyone please advise if Yosemite is in fact supported on 1.2.1 with patch 3??
    Thank you very much in advance for your help
    Jeff

    Jeff,
    OS X 10.10 is supported in ISE 1.2 p11, 1.2.1 p2 and 1.3.
    Patch 12 for 1.2 and Patch 3 for 1.2.1 fix other issues for OS X 10.10, and I recommend updating to the latest patches for these fixes.
    Here is the entry in the Release Notes detailing the fix for 10.10 in 1.2 p 12:
    MacOsXAgent versrion 4.9.5.3 should be used and MacOsXSPWizard 1.0.0.30
    Note that the description for these files denote ISE 1.2 Patch 11/12, ISE 1.3 release and above.  ISE 1.2.1 is not mentioned, but follows the bug fix/release schedule for 1.2, with an adjustment.
    1.2 patch 10 = 1.2.1 patch 1
    Please Rate Helpful posts and mark this question as answered if, in fact, this does answer your question.  Otherwise, feel free to post follow-up questions.

  • Apple Support for FCE HD - $200 per call???

    i had what was probably a minor issue with editing in final cut express hd today. So naturally, i called applecare. They told me that it had been past the 90 days given to us for support from the point of purchase. Fine. However, the apple support representative went on to tell me that Applecare does NOT support pro applications and that i have to pay $199 per incident? I paid $299 for the product itself! Last i checked, i-pods were selling pretty well and i don't think steve jobs needs that money! Is apple serious? Where do they get off charging $200 for a ONE TIME PHONE CALL? Just because FCE HD is a "pro" application, apple can't assume that everyone who purchases this product is a "pro" from the start!
    Where else am i supposed to get phone technical support for FCE HD??

    These forums are here to give you technical advice. Admittedly it is not over the phone but it is FREE and lasts for ever.
    Also you will have the collective knowledge of numerous people not just the one "expert" you happen to be speaking to.

    I have had to erase my disk since then with trouble with Apple Store not recognising my machine and the reload from Time Machine has given complications . Can you please cancel my trial and return my Trial money.

    If you paid for what you used then it was not a trial.

  • How do I get support for Windows 7 on, and a W7 backup disk for, my new ThinkPad?

    I know these have got to be stupid questions, since I am sure that they have to have been asked before (unless they are clearly explained somewhere that everyone else has found, and I am somehow completely missed it), but I did search the forums and was surprised NOT to find any info on getting Windows 7 technical support after it was factory installed in a month-old Thinkpad. I wonder if the apparent defects in my W7, or maybe a different problem in my browser, could be affecting my ability to search to forums?
    I believe that my Windows 7 is defective, but calling Lenovo, they just talked about reinstalling Win7 from the partition, which makes no sense, if my W7 copy is defective, wouldn't the copy in the partition be defective too? My mom said she ordered a $20 W7 backup disk with the PC, but I never received it, and now Lenovo tech tells me those aren't actually available, and she must have confused it with the W7 upgrade disk, which didn't sound right, since I thought the upgrade disk was over $100, and I never received that one either anyway. If the W7 that was factory-installed is defective, I am assuming it's a copy of the same one in the partition, so that partition recovery is not feasible, is there any way to reorder a W7 re-install disk that will still register as Genuine Windows 7 on a Thinkpad? Now when I search the Lenovo site, I cannot find ANY W7 disks of any kind, neither a backup for factory-installed W7, nor for upgrade from a prior Windows version. Does anyone know how I could go about re-ordering the W7 backup disk when it appears to be missing from the online catalog? Unless this too is a defect in my browser search: can someone give me the link to page where I could select and re-purchase a W7 backup disk?
    It has been a few years since I had a new PC, but I have never even heard of one before that did not come with instruction manuals and OS and support disks, and did not provide any tech support for its own factory-installed software or Windows, at least during the first few months of ownership. Where do new Thinkpad owners turn for individual W7 software support, since Microsoft swears it is Lenovo's responsibility to support W7 under its OEM license, yet Lenovo swears they only support hardware? It almost seems that new users are expected to know everything already, or be initiated enough with the product to know exactly what your problem is and what's causing it, in order to find an online fix. Who do you call if W7 or Lenovo software (but not an ISP issue) appear to be doing something to prevent online access, but there are no discernible hardware issues? Where do you call for individualized W7, as well as Lenovo software, support, especially after no one online has ever heard of your specific issues and has no workable ideas for fixing them, or when your problem prevents you from getting online at all?
    Thanks so much
