[07:34] <prachi> Hello,I am new and was trying to write a simple demuxer. I am not able to understand what AVFormatContext structure actually is. I've read the documentation and data variables etc in it.Still I am not able to get a solid idea of what it actuall is.I was hoping if someone could help me .Thanks in advance!
[10:00] <amalia> Don't have a clue about writing an RMS-ALS decoder. Any ideas ?
[10:10] <amalia> stephano Don't have a clue about writing an RMS-ALS decoder. Any ideas ?
[10:11] <amalia> Stefano Don't have a clue about writing an RMS-ALS decoder. Any ideas ?
[10:25] <amalia> Don't have a clue about writing an RMS-LMS decoder. Any ideas ?
[10:34] <ubitux> where did you see this qualification task?
[10:34] <ubitux> who is the mentor?
[10:34] <ubitux> (hi)(
[10:34] <amalia> I was given that by Thilo Borgmann
[10:34] <amalia> To write an RMS-LMS decoder
[10:34] <amalia> Hi ubitux
[10:36] <ubitux> better contact him directly then
[10:36] <ubitux> by mail, that is
[10:36] <amalia> Hmm
[10:36] <amalia> No tips... :(
[10:36] <amalia> I am dying here
[10:36] <ubitux> i don't know, your question is vague
[10:36] <ubitux> did you have a specs?
[10:36] <ubitux> do*
[10:38] <amalia> Okay Fine ubitux
[13:20] <saste> hi, can you update me with the latest instructions about opw?
[13:21] <saste> is the candidate requested to send a qualification task *before* Oct 22?
[13:24] <michaelni> saste, i know only whats written on the opw pages and they arent 100% clear, reynaldo did ask the admins afew days ago but got no reply or ive been lost in the CC
[13:24] <saste> michaelni, also, do I need an account in the OPW admin system?
[13:24] <saste> how can I get that?
[13:25] <michaelni> for "https://opw.gnome.org/?q=manage_projects&prg=3" there was a way to "login" with your google account
[13:26] <michaelni> if you want to mentor or rate your potential applicants or read the applications then you need an acount
[13:26] <saste> that is, I need a google account?
[13:26] Action: Jul13t asks about this on the #opw channel
[13:27] <michaelni> Jul13t, thanks
[13:28] <michaelni> saste, i dont know ... a google account was just what i used
[13:31] <saste> michaelni, about the qualification tasks page, what's this complexity index?
[13:31] <saste> also what's this "Date Given"?
[13:32] Action: michaelni looks for reynaldo but doesnt see him
[13:33] <saste> michaelni, do i need to apply as a mentor?
[13:34] <michaelni> if you want to mentor you need to get an account for opw and click that "willing to mentor" button for the application you are willing to mentor
[13:34] <amalia> Which channel is that Jul13t ?
[13:36] <michaelni> #opw IRC channel on GIMPNet (irc.gnome.org)
[13:38] <thardin> neat
[13:38] Action: thardin joined as tomas
[14:53] <cone-232> ffmpeg.git 03Kevin Mitchell 07master:ff68ceb1b55b: avfilter/vf_idet: add both multiple and single frame detection metadata
[16:37] <cone-232> ffmpeg.git 03Brad Smith 07master:04a4fb81b3d1: v4l2: Make use of the VIDIOC_ENUM_FRAMESIZES ioctl on OpenBSD
[18:58] <rhea> hey everyone i jus got to know about the opw programme from a friend is there any bug i could fix right now
[19:01] <J_Darnley> You can have a look at trac for an unsorted dump of issues people report.
[19:01] <J_Darnley> As for applying to OPW I reckon you are too late.
[19:01] <J_Darnley> Your application has to be done by Wednesday.
[19:03] <J_Darnley> Though we do still welcome anyone who wished to contribute.
[19:03] <rhea> isn't there time till tomorrow if i fix a bug?
[19:06] <Guest37454> hello all. there is a ffmpeg bug report i'd really need fixed but nothing happened for 21 months now. what can i do to get this solved? can i somehow do a bounty for getting this fixed?
[19:08] <rhea> i am ready to fix a bug
[19:22] <Guest37454> https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/2220
[19:32] <cone-232> ffmpeg.git 03Thilo Borgmann 07master:f31445a82d6a: lavf/mov.c: Allocate buffer in case of long metadata entries.
[20:14] <cone-232> ffmpeg.git 03Rong Yan 07master:a001db2e2c27: configure: fix bug to ensure that HAVE_VSX is only enabled when HAVE_ALTIVEC is enabled and in LE environment
[20:15] <ubitux> ok so, the main blocking point with the text subtitles is now zvbi teletext support :(
[20:24] <akira4> umm ubitux, I tried adding the stl test sample but I get nothing in the reference file.
[20:27] <llogan> Guest37454: you can create a bounty here: https://www.bountysource.com/issues/1414464-ffmpeg-unable-to-stream-copy-some-wtv-h264-into-mpegts
[20:30] <akira4> nevermind. I got it :D
[20:33] <Guest37454> bounty done, thanks
[20:33] <akira4> just out of curiosity,how exactly are the reference files that are generated used ?
[20:47] <ubitux> akira4: they're used to compare obviously
[20:48] <ubitux> so if the code is broken later, the output will differ from the originally generated file
[20:48] <ubitux> and raise an error
[20:48] <akira4> compare with?
[20:48] <akira4> oh
[20:49] <ubitux> don't forget to git add the reference file
[20:49] <ubitux> then you can test easily; break your code, then run make fate-sub-stl again
[20:49] <ubitux> (without GEN=1)
[20:50] <Yolande> Hello,  My name is Amate Yolande, I just came across the OutreachProgramForWomen and though its is close to the deadline it would like to know if there is a chance i can start working on a project and submit a proposal before the deadline.
[20:50] <akira4> hmm..I see.
[20:54] <Compn> Yolande : we have a lot of applicants so far, what kind of skills do you have? anything to do with simd /asm ? :)
[20:57] <akira4> ubitux, I've mailed the patch. 
[20:59] <ubitux> akira4: you're not working on the latest ffmpeg
[20:59] <ubitux> you need to rebase, the tests have changed
[21:00] <ubitux> we're not using a md5 system anymore for text subtitles
[21:00] <Yolande> Compn: No i am not familiar with simd /asm and i have no actual experience with ffmpeg but have done programming/plugin development with gstreamer.  
[21:00] <ubitux> akira4: anyway, can i se the .stl file?
[21:00] <akira4> sure.
[21:01] <ubitux> !strncmp(ptr,"//",2)  you forgot some spaces here
[21:01] <akira4> http://pastebin.com/tBxTGZx4
[21:01] <ubitux> akira4: not bad
[21:01] <ubitux> akira4: can you make a line with both " , " as separator?
[21:02] <akira4> I'll add that.
[21:03] <ubitux> otherwise it looks like a good case
[21:03] <ubitux> anyway, git rebase this and re-gen the sample
[21:03] <ubitux> you'll have to solve the conflict in subtitles.mak
[21:04] <Compn> Yolande : well, to be honest, we have more applicants than we have slots, which means your chances of getting paid in the opw are very slim. but if you want to work on ffmpeg, we might be able to find a mentor and a project to work on :)
[21:07] <cone-232> ffmpeg.git 03Vittorio Giovara 07master:8ab3b71e4b34: idcin: fix return check
[21:07] <cone-232> ffmpeg.git 03Michael Niedermayer 07master:ab077b3d7a79: Merge commit '8ab3b71e4b343cec3fa369a880ab4496d7345154'
[21:10] <michaelni> Compn, we have a single qualified applicant
[21:10] <Compn> haha , no one filled out an application yet ?
[21:10] <Compn> Yolande : good news.... fill out an application and you're in! :P
[21:11] <michaelni> Compn, people did submit applications but only one submitted a qualification task that passed review and was applied
[21:11] <Compn> ah
[21:19] <akira4> ubitux, is this better? http://pastebin.com/0JRH59N3. 
[21:19] <ubitux> yeah sure
[21:19] <ubitux> btw
[21:20] <ubitux> i know i'm demanding
[21:20] <ubitux> can you add more style change for later?
[21:20] <ubitux> like changing multiple ColorIndex[1234] at once
[21:21] <ubitux> and mixing bold and italic, then only disable bold
[21:21] <ubitux> or stuff like that
[21:22] <akira4> hmm...alright.
[21:22] <akira4> oh and since the tests have changed..I'll have to rebase and make the changes again?
[21:23] <ubitux> yes you need to rerun the fate test with GEN=1
[21:23] <ubitux> and fix the conflict you're gonna get in subtitles.mak
[21:23] <cone-232> ffmpeg.git 03Michael Niedermayer 07master:02484d1a9316: avio: fix sizeof argument
[21:23] <cone-232> ffmpeg.git 03Michael Niedermayer 07master:54112629f196: Merge commit '02484d1a9316a9309fc1830825345ab79f6a8d60'
[21:23] <akira4> heh. and I thought this time I'll get the patch applied for sure :P
[21:23] <ubitux> sorry :)
[21:23] <ubitux> you're almost there
[21:24] <akira4> yup. thanks :)
[21:24] <akira4> oh and about the proposal for OPW
[21:24] <akira4> what should I write?
[21:24] <ubitux> mmmh
[21:24] <ubitux> whatever you want basically
[21:25] <ubitux> let me check what i said last time
[21:25] <akira4> cool
[21:26] <ubitux> akira4: 
[21:26] <ubitux> 23:32:34 <@ubitux> there are a lot of work on subtitles stuff
[21:26] <ubitux> 23:32:52 <@ubitux> the final goal is to get a proper (at least text) subtitles support in ffmpeg
[21:26] <ubitux> 23:33:02 <@ubitux> and that includes having them in libavfilter for hardsubbing
[21:26] <ubitux> so, just word something along those line
[21:27] <akira4> hmm...okay.

[21:52] <akira4> ubitux, how does this stl file look? http://pastebin.com/MkHZpJUW
[21:53] <ubitux> akira4: looks good :)
[21:53] <akira4> phew. 
[21:53] <akira4> I'll run the fate-tests then
[21:53] <ubitux> michaelni: can you upload this file in fate-suite/sub/STL_capability_tester.stl?
[21:53] <ubitux> (http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=MkHZpJUW)

[22:48] <akira4> ubitux, I've sent the patch.
[22:49] <ubitux> akira4: cool, it looks fine to me so far
[22:49] <akira4> that's great :)
[22:49] <ubitux> akira4: i'll wait 24 hours to apply (to wait for the fate farm to synchronize for the sample)
[22:49] <ubitux> so i'll probably apply tomorrow around the same hour
[22:50] <ubitux> after some testing
[22:50] <akira4> cool.

[23:18] <Jul13t> michaelni, Marina says prospective OPW applicants CAN continue working on their qualifications tasks right up to November 12. So I'll like to know if it's valid here?
[23:19] <michaelni> Jul13t, yes it is
[23:19] <Jul13t> and applications too
[23:20] <Jul13t> michaelni, concerning the MPEG lossless encoder project, it's said the qualification task cannot be completed?
[23:21] <michaelni> the applications submitted to OPW can AFAIK also be editing by applicants after oct22 yes
[23:22] <Jul13t> so any prospective applicant still has a chance since it's possible to keep working on the qualification task before Nov 12 right?
[23:24] <michaelni> before october 31, yes, before nov 12 maybe
[23:25] <Jul13t> thanks michaelni was getting discouraged already :(
[23:40] <michaelni> note though that we have only until the 31oct for applicants who would need a slot from general opw funding, as opw needs to know to which applicants this applies by oct 31
[23:48] <Jul13t> thanks michaelni that'll do
