ffmpeg-0.6

NOTE Package has been updated, dependencies are included in package for luci-204. If you attempt to use in Puppy 5x you will need extra dependencies.

This is the full enchilada, so I wouldn't expect it in the main iso.. it won't support old machines anyway. It is compiled i686 to enable everything (except ffserver is disabled)

ffplay is enabled, it is the default ffmpeg player, pretty basic.

This supports webm, you can actually convert an mpeg4 or whatever to a webm file! Exciting stuff!

Ok, no more hoo har.. you want it.. right?

Here it is.

ffmpeg http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/ffmpeg- ... -Lucid.pet

checksum: cc8a32a9f3e127ee5961b097e67587bc ffmpeg1-0.6-i686-Lucid.pet

petspecs http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/ffmpeg- ... -0.6.specs

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
ONLY needed for Puppy 5x, plus this one here

dependencies, packaged as a pet http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/ffmpeg- ... es-0.6.pet

Please use only in Lucid based Puppies

http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/ffmpeg- ... -0.6.specs
deps not included but are listed in petspecs, a useful resource..http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/libdevel/ but you'll have to find libvpx-dev, it's out there...

_______________________________________________

What do I do with it????

Well, you can convert videos to webm, download videos in webm format and watch them in ffplay. Ok, maybe not so exciting for some, but we now have the technology to ditch
embedded Flash videos on our websites.. and use html5 webm videos instead.. how cool is that?

You can download and watch this video with ffplay

Code: Select all

ffplay video.webm

This is a video I converted from mp4 to webm.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOTE: Browser support for Webm is NOT dependant upon this package, you need a capable browser, Chromium-6 is best

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I figured out how to use the <video> tag in html5, it's the same as <img> tag .. but there's probably more to it than that!

Here's a test page
http://users.tpg.com.au/01micko//video-test.html

Code: Select all

</head>
<body>
this is a test video using html5, right click to play the video, you must use latest Chomium, or Firefox nightly build, or I think Opera-10.60 works<br>
<br>
Does it work for you?<br>

Thanks mick
OK further to our conversation
I have uploaded the following code
here
http://tmxxine.com/webm/

If you are in Chrome (nightly webm enabled)
please report if it plays webm
it also uses flash or ogg

if webm is not supported
it will try to download the file rather than play it . . .

Code: Select all

I'm aware of it...thanks for thinking of me, but I'm still trying to figure out how to get the OO pet menus working.

@micko: put the webm pets into puppeeec6 and quirky120 , both show no video on the test page when viewed with opera10.60beta1.
thing s mp4 that played before in quirky now wont play in gnomeplayer. removed pets and mp4s play again.
no go for lupu117
also no go for http://tmxxine.com/webm/ in all of above

01micko · #282 Post by **01micko** » Sat 19 Jun 2010, 10:37

hello aarf

I will be clear here. The browser is not dependant on ffmpeg. So even without the pets it *should* work, but in Opera it doesn't. Even their special web-m version (http://snapshot.opera.com/webm/opera-10 ... ux.tar.bz2) fails, even on the webm pages in you-tube

Of course the pets are designed for Luci so I don't know if they would work in Puppeee or Quirky. What you can try, since you have the pets installed is downloading the file and use ffplay

Code: Select all

ffplay /path/to/file.webm

to play it locally.

HTH

Cheers

Be aware that Lobster has a flash backup.. so it probably played in flashplayer,

When you install that lib, do an ldd on ffmpeg

Code: Select all

ldd /usr/bin/ffmpeg|grep 'not'

if nothing is returned you are good to go with ffplay, else let me know what else is missing.

Cheers

Lobster · #289 Post by **Lobster** » Sat 19 Jun 2010, 11:41

the page is designed to 'play something' from a choice of 3 formats
http://tmxxine.com/webm/
It played nothing in the puppy browser - so the code is not perfect

Use the options at the bottom to see if it plays the webm (Chrome Nightly builds only at present) or mp4 or ogg

Have a nice break. Best to stick with Lucid Puppies for this one I think. Probably best to uninstall ffmpeg and restore the original from /initrd/pup_ro2/usr/bin in Puppeee. Just leave the dependencies there, it may drag out some that are needed if you uninstall.

If you persevere with lupu-117 then http://packages.ubuntu.com/en/lucid/libs/ , that is where you find all the Ubuntu libs.

@Playdayz- yes, symlink for printing to windows printer is ok- thanks.

One problem that I get with Firefox (and Seamonkey but not tried on this one) is that using the side scroll bar causes the display to break up into horizontal streaks. Happens on dpup as well as the ubuntu based puppies. Happens on both my Acer Aspire One, and my old 600MHz 256MB ram desktop. Chrome, Opera seem ok, I'll try Arora too.

EDIT: Can't find Arora at the moment, but using Midori now- it works ok. Seems it's the Mozilla browsers on debian/ubuntu based Puppies. I can't be the only user with this problem?

using the side scroll bar causes the display to break up into horizontal streaks.

Yes happen to me too but got incredibly less present when I got the right ??? nvidia driver to work. Now it only happens if I have very many tabs open and play video at same time. I have 3GB RAM so could be related to how much RAM one have?

It helped to scroll using the arrows and page down instead of using the scroll bar

Aisleriot, Avidemux, Blender, Fotoxx, Kino, Linux Multimedia System, Pdfedit, and Numlockx have been added to the PPM puppy-lucid repo. I have also fixed Skype. I think you will need to choose the ibiblio repo for a day or so.

You can choose to Update all the repos, but it takes so long to convert the ubuntu repos to puppy repos. An alternate method is to go to Download Puppy from the /usr/share/doc/home.htm screen and then go to the ibiblio repo with http and you can directly download Packages-puppy-lucid-official and place it into /root/.packages/

---------------------------------------------------------------------
prehistoric, I am following your investigation. I just tried from scratch and got the error message, but I did lsmod in a terminal and the powernow_k8 module was running. It did not survive reboot though. I tried the older version 1.2 and it gave the same error message but also started the powernow_k8 module. This is a quadcore. What are you using to check temp btw?

I am pretty sure I do remember it running somewhere along the line--I think I even posted a message recommending it. Yes, and I would use Conky to check the cpu speed, which was 125000 just as it should be with power save working.

However please could you add these features:

When the splash "Checksum BAD!/ok" is shown. I could do with being able to press enter and and the program quits.
Thanks muchly for the work you have done .

abushcrafter,

The "Esc" key doesn't seem trappable in Gtkdialog.
Here's a less flashy, but perhaps more functional version that saves a stroke. Instead of "esc" a quick Alt-c or cancel and you're done.

Hi all,

I have uppdated the ffmpeg-0.6 package here http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 349#428349

The information is a little more accurate too.

This package is probably only useful to web developers unless you download webm format videos and want to play them locally with ffplay.

TO DO: Mplayer support for webm... that would be more practical for everyday users, but I think it will depend on this package.

Cheers

________________________________________________________

Playdayz: Thanks for all the new pets in the repo, it is starting to look like one now.

Another good addition could be sinobar's FF-convert-0.9 .. the small version. It can be used with the current ffmpeg and the new ffmpeg-0.6.

I'm relying on the hwinfo sensors readout. This shows all the sensors, and there is a definite drop when powernow_k8 is running.

I am pretty sure I do remember it running somewhere along the line--I think I even posted a message recommending it. Yes, and I would use Conky to check the cpu speed, which was 125000 just as it should be with power save working.

I can now switch back and forth between Stardust13, where it definitely works on this dual-core machine, and luci204.

My last close approach to the bug ended with a "does not compute" when I compared scripts and found no difference. I don't know if it is the machine or operator who is dropping bits. The question in my mind now is why isn't the script in Startup being completed in luci204? All I see getting written is the "#!/bin/sh" line.

Afraid I got distracted by trivial non-computer concerns involving cars, houses, telephones, banks, frantic people and crises. (Fortunately, my own car, house and bank are separate from the latest crisis. I feel lucky to have escaped with a broken display on a netbook when I forgot I was wearing a wired headset and turned to answer the telephone. cf. dropping bits, above.)

gnucash

This is the Ubuntu Lucid package.

It required some minor hacking of the scripts to play nice in Puppy but will of course need testing over time, what better time than now with the end of financial year approaching.

There is also a pinstall.sh script urging the user to create their main file in a subdir of root, as root is the default in a non-multiuser system.

http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/lucid/g ... -Lucid.pet 19M

7587ccd27500e31e5c0f82bc12b88f53 gnucash-2.2.9-5-Lucid.pet

petspecs http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/lucid/gnucash.specs

If you want the documentation then you can get it if you have the ubuntu repos enabled in PPM. The files needed are bigger than the program! Heavy dependencies.

If you can enjoy doing your accounts then... enjoy!
