At this point, I must admit to a very sketchy knowledge of multimedia in general and video in particular. I headed for the ports and looked at xawtv, fxtv and a few others and just became more confused - I can view what the camera sees, I can save this to a series of jpegs and there is a wealth of software there. My problem, then, what is the best way to do this; a series of jpegs (say two a second) or some form of video. I want to be able to keep (on a 40GB disk) up to a week of "film" and I want to be able to view this from a specified point in time. Any pointers gratefully received.

Sure, but it all consumes CPU, the simple solution I depicted above runs on old 486/33 machines with B/W parallel quickcams and has CPU to spare for other things as well. -Søren To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Sun Dec 9 5:28:16 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from kumr.lns.com (kumr.lns.com [63.198.122.138]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8D14337B416 for ; Sun, 9 Dec 2001 05:28:12 -0800 (PST) Received: (from pozar@localhost) by kumr.lns.com (8.11.6/8.9.3) id fB9DQmJ73809; Sun, 9 Dec 2001 05:26:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from pozar) Date: Sun, 9 Dec 2001 05:26:48 -0800 From: Tim Pozar To: User Raymond Cc: freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Using a Brooktree grabber as a security device Message-ID: <20011209052648.A72407@lns.com> References: <200112090915.TAA31024@gw.one.com.au> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i In-Reply-To: <200112090915.TAA31024@gw.one.com.au>; from raymond@one.com.au on Sun, Dec 09, 2001 at 07:15:28PM +1000 Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I am doing exactly this right now. At this point I am saving 640x480 images as JPEGs once a minute and then converting these into MPEG files. Unfortunately this rate is just too slow to pick up wanted action. If I did sample faster, say once a second, I would be needing almost 3GB a day in images or about 5GB for MPEG video files. It also makes it harder to find the frames I want. Ideally you want software that does motion detection (such as edge, etc.) that will only save frames that have significant changes in them at a quick rates in order to capture as much as possible. I am currently experimenting with a number of methods and packages to do this. I will get back to folks with the end result.

All I know is that the sound broke with the pcm megacommit in February 2001. As a workaround I installed FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE next to my 4.4-STABLE. Quake3 derivate Wolfenstein has the same problem. As for other games, YMMV. Sometimes there is an annoying sound lag (Rune, Soldier of Fortune) which I worked around by purchasing OSS. However, some games appear to be silent with OSS (such as Quake3). So, I keep rebooting between 4.2, 4.4 with pcm and 4.4 with OSS... :-/ (and Windows '98 for games without Linux version) Karel.

If yours is a Radeon Mobility M6 (aka "LY"), then you'll need to use the latest XFree86 from CVS (http://www.xfree86.org/cvs.html), as there is no support in XFree86 4.1.0 (this chipset not existing at the time this was released). This works great for several people (myself included), problems with internal panel detection you might see references too on the XFree86 lists were recently fixed. Currently the CVS version of XFree86 4.1.99_X radeon driver supports: (II) RADEON: Driver for ATI Radeon chipsets: ATI Radeon QD (AGP), ATI Radeon QE (AGP), ATI Radeon QF (AGP), ATI Radeon QG (AGP), ATI Radeon VE QY (AGP), ATI Radeon VE QZ (AGP), ATI Radeon Mobility LW (AGP), ATI Radeon Mobility LY (AGP), ATI Radeon Mobility LZ (AGP), ATI Radeon 8500 QL (AGP), ATI Radeon 7500 QW (AGP) > Also the NIC is not detected AFAIK, compaq use INTEL pro cards with its > laptops.

I suspect you'll need to use 4.4-STABLE, my Omnibook 6100 Intel-based NIC wouldn't work with 4.4-RELEASE either, but a commit a couple of weeks later fixed it. > Can someone help me with this please, I have to get this laptop to work > before afternoon > > thanks > > Gerardo > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message > Regards, AS --==_Exmh_1650249984P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) Comment: Exmh version 2.5 07/13/2001 iD8DBQE8FRIQPHh895bDXeQRAgVIAKCujC0QWXE2OqkAqqqBoshh99nFdQCfX7HG T4A52sPqMOa+yiCE+KsEYfk= =aU/E -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_1650249984P-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Mon Dec 10 14:33: 1 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from Thanatos.Shenton.Org (a3.ebbed1.client.atlantech.net [209.190.235.163]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 53DFA37B417 for ; Mon, 10 Dec 2001 14:33:00 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 38108 invoked by uid 1000); 10 Dec 2001 22:32:58 -0000 To: Tim Pozar Cc: multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Motion detection software?

I have also tested the demo version of Rune, and indeed there is lag in the sound effects. Don't know about Soldier of Fortune, or any others.

Don't know about Soldier of Fortune, or any others. > Below is an overview of the test results I did yesterday night with several Linux games, all from Loki games (www.lokigames.com) except Wolfenstein. I will file a PR somewhere during the next days with more details. Machine is an Athlon 1.4 GHz on Asus A7M board, with CMI onboard and a separate es1370 pci soundcard which I both tried with the FreeBSD newpcm driver. I also tested with OSS (from www.opensound.com) for the CMI chip. Quake 3 does have sound in 4.2-RELEASE. I tracked the loss of sound down to the pcm megacommit from the beginning of February 2001; sources dated 2001-02-03 01:00 work, 2001-02-03 12:00 do *not* work. When exiting Rune in 4.4-S with the newpcm driver, the rune-bin binary seems to hang (?) in the state 'pcmsyn' and needs to be killed to stop. Also Soldier of Fortune does not exit cleanly; when exiting the game, it seems to hang and when killing it from a terminal XFree86 dumps core (version 4.1.0). I included all version numbers I tested. This might be important as I remember that SoF 1.04 did not have the sound lag, but 1.06 does. Unfortunately I didn't succeed in running the SoF demo anymore, apparently I'm missing the libesd.so library in /compat/linux. The full version does not complain about this. Karel.

The port found in Well yes, when I tried the port for the Quake3 demo this week, linux_glx was the first thing I threw out because AFAIK linux_glx is supposed to work with X-3.3.6/Utah-glx (which I never managed to get working). > the gnats system > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=31505 > works much better (no sound yet though). Could someone please > commit this? Yes, that's the way to go if you have X4. I have it installed using the instructions on Eric Anholt's site and it works fine on my old machine (K6-2/500 MHz/G400) with Quake3. Other games are too slow to be playable though, but they mostly run fine with an old Voodoo2. On my new machine I'm only using the Voodoo2 to play games ;-), because agp-gart doesn't seem supported yet on the AMD760 chipset, which means no DRI. Regards, Karel.

It should backport easily. Also there have been some commits to the XFree86-CVS that should probably be tested by anyone interested in seeing the FreeBSD flavor of the DRI stuff get integrated into the next base XFree86 release (XF86-4.2.0).

No patch is necessary.

Can you try 3 things to help clarify the problem - other people who have reported a similar problem have not been forthcoming with additional info that would help pin point the problem. Can you try the following and let me know what happens in each case: 1. use mpg123 to play an audio file (no gui that may hide error messages). Does it appear to be playing the file? eg doesn't complain about not being able to open the device. 2. Configure your mp3 player to play at a rate lower than 44.1kHz, eg try mpg123 -2 foo.mp3 3. Configure your mp3 player to use /dev/audio rather than /dev/dsp? And try playing the same file. mpg123 -a /dev/audio foo.mp3 Thanks - Orion To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Sat Dec 15 11:48: 8 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from mta2.snfc21.pbi.net (mta2.snfc21.pbi.net [206.13.28.123]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DC70E37B405 for ; Sat, 15 Dec 2001 11:48:06 -0800 (PST) Received: from marburg.aedifice.net ([209.233.30.172]) by mta2.snfc21.pbi.net (Sun Internet Mail Server sims.3.5.2000.01.05.12.18.p9) with ESMTP id <0GOE004MZHMZ18@mta2.snfc21.pbi.net> for freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org; Sat, 15 Dec 2001 11:47:23 -0800 (PST) Date: Sat, 15 Dec 2001 11:47:22 -0800 From: "David C.

Oddly, you can specify a non-existent audio device (like /dev/blah or something), and mpg123 doesn't complain at all. It still appears to be playing the file. From a truss log, I never see it opening /dev/audio. Instead, it's loading a lot of ESD-related stuff. So maybe that's not a good test... Hmm. Okay, I see there's a command called 'playwave'. Running playwave with a 2.5 second wav file, it doesn't appear to run -- it exits (with return code 0) immediately. A truss does show it opening and ioctling /dev/dsp, at least. On the other hand, I can do something like this: 'cat > /dev/audio', and static does come out of the speakers. Same with /dev/dsp. -David.

Yeah, that's what I used to do when I had DSS. As I recall the remote is radio rather than IR so it wasn't that inconvenient to just keep one in the computer room and switch the tuner from across the house. Are there radio-controller-transmitting satellite TV tuner cards for PCs? Or external serial/parallel/USB devices which function as satellite remotes?

Well, I don't know what is wrong there, but just as a data point my CMedia 8738 works pretty well with FreeBSD 4.3-stable circa June '01. The only dsp-out problem I have with it is that once and a while with xmms, I get small "skips" in the audio. It's not frequent, but occassionally it's like the driver overwrites the DMA buffer before it's finished playing it. > dmesg | grep -i cmedia pcm0: port 0xa400-0xa4ff irq 10 at device 5.0 on pci0 I have this in my kernel config: device pcm0 device sbc0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15 device pca0 at isa? port IO_TIMER1 Since /dev/audio seems to be somewhat functional there, this should be a good test to see how well it actually works: mpg123 -s SomeSong.mp3 | \ sox -t raw -s -r 44100 -w -c 2 - -t raw -U -b -c 1 -r 8012 /dev/audio Randall -- Randall Hopper aa8vb@nc.rr.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
