I emerge avidemux-2.0.34_rc2 which went well (mmx support include). But when coding an avi file to vcd the actual video coding just stopped at the start. This works well with the rc1 version. The command line output ends with: ===== ** conf updated ** Filter tag :36 Resize with MMX Resize with 3DNOW Resize with MMX2 Resize with BILINEAR Filter tag :11 Codec vcd found codec conf is mbr video is now : 1 **saving:** Mpeg family XXX Output format is not compatible! XXX!!! Resize with MMX Resize with 3DNOW Resize with MMX2 Resize with BILINEAR making audio timeline ===== and then auodio coding starts normal. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Starting avidemux with coding avi file to vcd 2. 3. Actual Results: Video coding stopped short Expected Results: video coding Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 Portage 2.0.51-r3 (default-linux/x86/2004.0, gcc-3.3.4, glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r1, 2.6.9-win4lin-r2 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.9-win4lin-r2 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1600+ Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r5 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r1 Binutils: sys-devel/binutils-2.15.90.0.1.1-r3 Headers: sys-kernel/linux26-headers-2.6.8.1,sys-kernel/linux26-headers-2.6.8.1-r1 Libtools: sys-devel/libtool-1.5.2-r7 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share/config /us r/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texm f/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distlocks sandbox sfperms" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://mirror.scarlet-internet.nl/pub/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.gentoo.mesh-solutions.com/gentoo/ http://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de /download/gentoo-mirror/ http://mirror.datapipe.net/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow 3dnowex Gtk X Xaw3d alsa apm arts artswrappersuid avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bonobo cdparanoia cdr crypt cups doc dvd dvdr encode es d f77 fam flac foomaticdb fortran gdbm gif gnome gpm gtk gtk2 gtkhtml guile imagemagick imlib java javascript jpeg kde ldap libg++ libwww ma d mikmod mmx mmx2 motif mpeg ncurses nls oggvorbis opengl oss pam pda pdflib perl png python qt quicktime readline samba scanner sdk sdl sla ng spell sse ssl svga tcltk tcpd tetex tiff truetype usb x86 xine xml xml2 xmms xprint xv xvid zlib"
Well it seems its a avidemux bug, nothing to do with Gentoo. It seems that in scripting the output containger is not set right for Mpeg 1 (VCD). And there not yet a scripting command to set it. I also posted this question in the avidemux forum, and they are working on getting this command in the next version. So I guess there's no reason to keep this bug here. We just wait for test3 (rc3 in Gentoo). Peter. PS who has the right to change this bug to closed? (Wontfix or whatever is appropriete here?)
closing - and waiting for upstream ...
