  Thanks. I'll take a look.

Thanks,

We added because someone kept on bitching about some problem that
apparently went away with this flag, and the functionality makes
sense.

Is this really appropriate given that nutmerge itself, as obtained via
that command line, prints a big fat warning to *not* use it for anything
other than testing purposes?

Also, are you aware that the README file in that checkout is rather
outdated? Perhaps most notably, its instructions assume that the tree is
in CVS rather than in SVN. It also makes some "DON"T USE THIS" type of
statements which don't seem any more consistent with "make samples
yourself" than the nutmerge warning does.

On a more positive note: I, for one, am happy to see this showing up -
I'm looking at the possibility of creating some permanent-archive videos
in the foreseeable somewhat-near future, and I'd really prefer to do
them in Snow+NUT (just because) - which is a bit of a problem if neither
of the above are likely to be stable enough for long-term usage. ^_^ For
either one to be reported as anything like stable can hardly but be a
positive development.

On a somewhat unrelated note, I have an AVI with XviD (which is,
technically, MPEG-4) video and MPEG-1 layer 3 audio on which nutmerge

A "spec" as readable as a sendmail configuration file doesn't make
matters better...

The command you are looking for is "finish".

And this coming from an individual who can actually digest formal ISO 
MPEG specs.

Here are some HD test sequences with no copyright restrictions, in raw 
YUV format, though without audio:

   ftp://ftp.ldv.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de/dist/test_sequences/

Still, it might be a start. Mux in some free music you can find 
somewhere, though that wouldn't flex the sync aspect.

This warning will be removed once:
1. nutmerge rejects all files it can't handle (this is almost the current 
situation)
2. libnut "version" will be pushed...

I forgot about that out of date stuff, I'll work on improoving it...

I've added 16-bit grayscale support. LGPL is fine.

Hi

there where some bugreports aout $subj a long time ago, but all the
sample videos seem to have dissapeared, if that bug is still happening
for anyone, then please upload a sample source file which causes it

Acknowledged. Just wanted to make sure about the situation.
