streamer, RIFF AVI and time-indexing

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



G'day,

I've been using streamer to capture TV programs with an RGB15 AVI with
44kHz stereo @ 29.97 fps in a file ~ 15GB for a 1 hour show, thereby
using the RIFF extension to the AVI to get the file > 2GB.

I was then going to use avisplit from the transcode pkg to edit out
the commercials, but I first need to know where the commercials
start and stop.

I use mplayer to watch the stream, but without a time-index, it can't
jump around for me to find the right place when commercials start and
stop. Is there any plans to include a time-index in an AVI file ?

Is this a problem with mplayer, and should I send my query there ?

I can load the file into avidemux (as a broken file) but without
indexing, it is PAINFULLY slow when you want to move about (and I would
prefer to do all this out of X11 anyways). I haven't had much luck
with any other tools, as they still seem to be using seek() calls
with int32...the whole 2GB problem.

Can't remember the version of my XawTV package, but it's very recent.
