libavfilter FT new FFmpeg maintainership
Hi, are there any play to continue *libavfilter* development? May be it's a time to merge libavfilter-soc to main *ffmpeg* tree? -- ________________________________________ Maksym Veremeyenko
are there any play to continue *libavfilter* development?
At least my plans to write some more filters.

No matter about what ffmpeg tree we're talking, this will for sure not happen in an overhasty commit. The soc repo is as far as I can see not endangered by anything. -Thilo

What about current filters present in libavfilter-soc and not included into main tree? (at least *movie* source filter) There are a lot of job (most) Stefano did to libavfilter-soc but he is not included into new maintainerships list (may be because he is close to Michael)... -- ________________________________________ Maksym Veremeyenko

They are not in HEAD (ups, old svn slang?) for a reason (that I don't know explicitly for any case). This is they do not conform to the standard needed to be integrated or simply bugs.

Although submission standards are also discussed (or changed) these days, it doesn't mean that the acceptance of more parts of the filter soc repo has anything to with who has worked on it or who will post it nor who will be reviewing or committing it. -Thilo

As I said it doesn't matter what name will have done the work with, or review, or commit, or maintain the corresponding parts. -Thilo

I consider the libavfilter soc repo *deprecated*, I updated the libavfilter soc to the last SVN revision and I don't think that I'll update it anymore. I plan to post an updated patch for the movie source (which is maybe the most requested feature at the moment) and possibly apply it to the repository where I still have commit rights, then I don't know which will be the relationship between the videolan and the git.ffmpeg.org repo and how they will be synched. As for the soc filters, most of them have been already discussed for inclusions, resuming: * rotate: the last patch I posted has still many problems, and I wanted to take a deeper look at it, then my focus switched on other things. * movie: as I said, I hope to be able to commit it soon * split: the last time I tried there was still some problem with the pad/crop/negate interactions, and more framework changes are required for the auto-insertion of fifo filters when required, see comments from Michael * drawtext: misses anti-aliasing, currently the quality of overlayed non anti-aliased fonts is crappy * negate: it should be implemented by using a more general lut filter, work-in-progress patch published by me on ffmpeg-devel, then again my focus and priority switched to something else * fade, fps: never discussed for integration, though their cleanup should be quite easy New filters should be discussed on ffmpeg-devel, we could eventully decide to create a new branch/repo for experimental stuff (mildly against this idea, I'd rather prefer to directly work for integration in one of the "official" repos). Maintainership status: Vitor is the nominal maintainer of the libavfilter soc repo, Michael is the maintainer of libavfilter in the videolan repo, I did most of the coding work but I rely a lot on Michael for design issues (and he's imho right now the only one with the required competence, interest and knowledge for evaluating them). libavfilter audio is a work in progress, the recently patches posted on ffmpeg-devel work almost fine, but there is still a bug I need to fix before to update them again. Best regards.

We can always sync relevant patches between the repos. That's the whole point of git. I don't have a sufficient understanding of all of lavfilter at this point but will probably just have to learn by going into it. The whole point of this exercise is to get stuff _moving_, so if you're set for getting stuff into git.ffmpeg.org, we'll help you make it happen. Ronald

committing *movie* filter will restore ffmpeg's functionality lost by dropping vhook... -- ________________________________________ Maksym Veremeyenko
