| acidrip | 0.12 | GPL | Simple GUI for MEncoder | AcidRip is a Gtk::Perl application for ripping and encoding DVD's. It neatly wraps MPlayer and MEncoder, which I think is pretty handy, seeing as MPlayer is by far the best bit of video playing kit around for Linux. As well as creating a simple Graphical Interface for those scared of getting down and dirty with MEncoders command line interface, It also automates the process in a number of ways: * Parses DVD into contents tree * Finds longest title * Calculate video bitrate for given filesize * Finds black bands and crops them * Gives suggestions for improved performance * Other stuff! |
| alevt | 1.6.1 | GPL | Teletext decoder and browser for the bttv based card | AleVT is a teletext/videotext decoder and browser for the bttv driver (/dev/vbi) and X11.

| bttvgrab | 0.15.10 | GPL | Video4Linux BTTV grab tools | bttvgrab is a program for grabbing video sequences under Linux using the video4linux driver. Originally, it was written for bt484-based frame grabber cards (e.g. Hauppauge WinTV, Miro PCTV ... ) and the bttv-driver from http://www.thp-uni-koeln.de/~rjkm/linux/bttv.html, so you will get best results when using one of them. The goal of bttv grab is to provide high-quality grabbing suitable for video recording. Currently, this is accomplished by trying hard not to leave out a single frame, and to catch temporary delays by buffering several frames. It also has synchronized sound and frame loss tracking. The included converter bttvconvert takes care of all necessary steps to create MPEG (1 or 2) video sequences from the grabbed frames, along with sound conversion. To use MPEG direct encoding features use : ftp://ftp.mpeg.org/pub/mpeg/mssg/mpeg2vidcodec_v12.tar.gz. --- NEED TO BE TESTED --- |
