Glad that you found the app!! I will be back this way later on this week to see how can I help the group. We need to grow a fun and exciting development environ and keep it that way. I would start by having a multimedia web page for the top ten most desired apps and then somehow provide the environment for the developers to gather together to hash out the solutions. If anyone wants to take the lead on this is fine by my . Just start with a very simple web page whose support is directly proportional to the interest that the group exerts and the willingnes of the programmers to support it. For sure , developers need to know what users want and of course users should be awared of what developers are working on . Right now I am too busy with yuv->rgb + scaling support in X . Guess what I got mpeg_play to do just that and my old funky video capture program,tv, can now use Xv + scaling so we can now display full screen video without changing display resolution.
