The LAMP (Linux Animation and Movie Player)

• AVI files [with Windows Codecs] (using avifile ).
• MPEG 1/3 files (using the SMPEG library).
• MPEG 2 and VOB files (using the libmpeg2 / libmpeg3 libraries).
• Quicktime and others (using Xanim ).

Current status

• Renderer: Conversion/functions still need MMX.
• Plugins:
  • AVIFILE: OK.
  • SMPEG: OK, Maybe improvments in seeking
  • XANIM: Seeking functions are not implemented.
  • MPEG2/MPEG3: Seeking functions don't work.
  • AVIDEV: OK.
  • QT: Not tested yet (send me your movies).

Change Log

• 22 September 2000: I've put my "avidev_player" in the download section. This one should not give you any "Undefined symbol", as the one in the rpm always do.
• 03 September 2000:
  • New plugins AVIDEV (avifile-0.46.1 with ASF support) and QT (quicktime4linux for home made movies).
  • New option -drop_one_for to drop one frame per frames.
• 30 August 2000:
  • Bug with Video Switching fixed.
  • Video Switching disabled by default, option -nvs replaced by -vs.
• 28 August 2000: First release
