Hi, Once again there is an update for avifile with brand new features. This version fixes some bugs and probably introduces others. ;-) Therefore, we need to test it to make sure it works for the broadest audiance. The great addition in this version is Windows Media Video 9 (WMV9) and new API for Direct Media Object. These changes only work for i386 users. Others, alpha and sparc64 users, out there cannot use WMV9 just yet. Therefore, you will need to install a new version of win32-codecs port to support WMV9 codecs. And, a new version of avifile port. Bear in mind that it might not work well. Let's try to narrow down the bugs. Currently, I was able to play pretty much everything I did before. But it seems that avifile core dumps when trying to play xvid files with AC3 sound. Could anyone try reproducing these? Installation instructions 1) Deinstall avifile port 2) Deinstall win32-codecs port 3) Download updated versions of both win32-codecs and avifile port http://people.FreeBSD.org/~lioux/avifile.tar.gz http://people.FreeBSD.org/~lioux/win32-codecs.tar.gz 4) Install updated win32-codecs port 5) Install updated avifile port Enjoy ;-) Let us know how it performs.
