From kscott@nmt.edu Sat Sep 16 18:30:07 2000 Date: Sat, 16 Sep 2000 18:30:07 -0600 From: K Scott Rowe To: support@mainconcept.de Subject: MainActor-3.5.5 Linux I just installed MainActor-3.5.5 for Linux on the following... PentiumIII/667, Slackware-7.0 Linux-2.2.16, Hauppauge WinTV(BT878), bttv-0.7.32 Xfree86-3.3.6 XF86_SVGA, Matrox Millenium G400, Adaptec 29160, IBM 10,000rpm 36Gig 4MB cache Ultra160, Creative Labs AWE64-Gold. - matool -f:MPEG-I -c:NTSC /sphinctite/kscott/kscott0002.avi /sphinctite/kscott/matool.mpg generates an mpeg with the mainactor wartermark even though I have the licensed version. mave and maseq do not generate watermarks. What's more, is that the mpeg generated by matool does not play well. With plaympeg (with SDL library from lokigames.com) only the first frame is shown and the audio runs normally. With mave, my entire computer locks up, and only an alt-sysreq-b works.

This should not happen, since the same modules are used for videocompression in all MA-products. I didn't face that here.

Scott Rowe" Subject: MainActor Linux 3.7.4 bugreport Message-ID: <20020313223435.A20533@nmt.edu> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5.1i Content-Length: 456 Lines: 11 This is to notify you that a long statnding bug in MainActor has been fixed with 3.7.4. The problem was that using matool to convert from say AVI to MPEG-I would leave the "MainAcotr" watermark on the resuting video; even though I have a license copy. This appeares to be fixed with the new 3.7.4 release. If you need more history on this problem, you can read my notes at http://www.nmt.edu/~kscott/video/mainactor/bugs/closed/matool_watermark thanx
