  • La file d’attente de SPIPmotion

    28 novembre 2010, par

    Une file d’attente stockée dans la base de donnée
    Lors de son installation, SPIPmotion crée une nouvelle table dans la base de donnée intitulée spip_spipmotion_attentes.
    Cette nouvelle table est constituée des champs suivants : id_spipmotion_attente, l’identifiant numérique unique de la tâche à traiter ; id_document, l’identifiant numérique du document original à encoder ; id_objet l’identifiant unique de l’objet auquel le document encodé devra être attaché automatiquement ; objet, le type d’objet auquel (...)

  • Open avi file with OpenCV : ffmpeg ?

    28 juin 2012, par CTZStef

    This question is related to a previous question I asked here.

    I read on the Willow Garage website dedicated to OpenCV that we do not have to take care of ffmpeg while installing OpenCV since version 1.2.x. Here it is.

    However, some questions asked here on Stackoverflow suggest the contrary.

    So, what should I do ? Do I have to recompile OpenCV and do some special operation related to ffmpeg to get it to, finally, open avi file on my Linux system ?

  • How to fix a segmentaion fault in a C program ? [closed]

    13 janvier 2012, par ipegasus

    Possible Duplicate :
    Segmentation fault

    Currently I am upgrading an open source program used for HTTP streaming. It needs to support the latest FFMPEG.
    The code compiles fine with no warnings although I am getting a segmentation fault error.
    I would like to know how to fix the issue ? and / or the best way to debug ? Please find attached a portion of the code due to size. I will try to add the project to github :) Thanks in advance !

    Sample Usage

    # segmenter --i out.ts --l 10 --o stream.m3u8 --d segments --f stream

    Makefile

    FFLIBS=`pkg-config --libs libavformat libavcodec libavutil`
    FFFLAGS=`pkg-config --cflags libavformat libavcodec libavutil`

    all:
       gcc -Wall -g segmenter.c -o segmenter ${FFFLAGS} ${FFLIBS}

    segmenter.c

  • Texai Remote Presence System Using VP8 Video

    19 novembre 2010, par noreply@blogger.com (John Luther)

    Guest blogger Josh Tyler is a member of the Texai team at Willow Garage.

    Willow Garage is busy building the next version of its Texai remote presence platform with VP8, the video codec used in WebM.

    In short, Texai is a two-way videoconferencing app on a tele-operated robotic platform (for more details, see the piece about Texai in the New York Times). Video and audio quality are critical to providing the best user experience on Texai. We’ve evaluated several video codecs and found VP8’s image quality, low latency and tolerance to packet loss far better than anything else we tested.

    The video below shows VP8 running on one of our systems.

    (If you have a WebM-enabled browser and are enrolled in the YouTube HTML5 beta the video will play in WebM HTML5, otherwise it will play in Flash Player.)

    We’re also looking for help ! If you’re interested in helping us create an incredible, high-fidelity user experience, either by joining our team, partnering on development, or by being added to our early customer interest list, please email us at texai-info@willowgarage.com.
