--jI8keyz6grp/JLjh Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Daniel O'Connor: |If you could get fxtv to dump YUV frames you would find it would be much more |efficient.. | |The BT8x8 cards can generate such frames, and mpeg encoding starts off by |generating YUV from RGB (and it is a major CPU killer - witness how much CPU |the Xv extension saves you when playing a movie - the CPU no longer has to do |YUV -> RGB) Right. And with YUV, the bandwidth is less for the same size image. Also, you can blow up your window larger than max video capture res and have no increase in PCI traffic. And, when your window is partially occluded, you don't give up DMA transfers to the video card; there are no application tricks needed as Xv/XFree86 handles all of the clipping. The problem is, not everyone's video card supports Xv (I suspect most TV user's cards don't; we should do a poll on that sometime...). So I haven't felt this incredible urge to add Xv support to Fxtv yet. If you want to play around, try the attached "simpletv" prog I threw together back in May 2000. Works fine here on my Matrox G450 (and before on my G200), but hasn't been tried on anything else. Note you'll need Hermes from here: http://freshmeat.net/projects/hermes/. Just configure, make, make install. Then, build and run simpletv. You'll want to run fxtv first to init the bktr driver settings. Stretch the window all around. No app involvement is req'd -- very simple. bruno schwander: |yes, I know about the YUV stuff, but it seems nobody ever got the driver |to output YUV in any other res than 320x240. So said Randall (fxtv |author) ... No, the problem is that no resolution I've tried except 320x240 would generate YUV frames that mpeg_encode would read correctly. This could very well be an mpeg_encode bug. If anyone has good success capturing and encoding YUV at varying resolutions w/ audio using other encoders, then we'll switch encoders! (or make fxtv more extensible so the user can choose their own).
