[AG-TECH] Any more H.264 news?

[Andrew Ford]

The only major issues that we're seeing revolve around firewire/dv support.
On Windows, firewire capture shows flashing vertical white lines (as has
probably already been mentioned on the list), and on Linux (Ubuntu) vic
can't see any firewire devices, and I have the device permissions set
correctly as far as I can tell so I don't think the problem would be on my
end. I'm guessing that the Linux issue is due to the current Linux packages
(from Chris at UQ) not actually including the "enhanced vic" code that
supports DV and was developed at UQ, but rather just the new
h.264-supporting code from SUMOVER. Is this correct, and if so, will these
codebases be merged?

Also, this new vic also demonstrates the videum source-changing bug, which
is bug 1671 on bugzilla:
http://bugzilla.mcs.anl.gov/accessgrid/show_bug.cgi?id=1671 I'm guessing
because the SUMOVER code doesn't include the patch mentioned on that page.
