Yeah, I had working on Mac OS X on my todo list, but I've just been too
busy. IOXperts did release a new version of their driver (a universal
type driver for USB and FireWire) that may or may not work with the
existing code. I haven't been able to check.
However, codec implementations should pretty much be platform neutral.
I am fairly certain I added all of the necessary support to the Mac OS
X video capture code to properly support 4:2:2, 4:2:0, and also 4:1:1.
I think H.263 uses the same YUV format as H.261? So there's a very good
chance that just choosing H.263 in the options menu will work.
The only thing might be some special cases where #defines or #typedefs
need to be checked. But those things will show up when you compile, and
are pretty easy to fix. If I recall correctly, they will show up as
directives inside __APPLE__ or __MACH__ tests.
Later,
