properly detect cpu at configure time
enable ppc specific code where possible (i.e. where altivec is not needed)
- reorder dependencies and fix WANTLIB
- kill a hardcoded /usr/X11R6 in configure
- generate x264.pc with proper libraries (add -m, use -pthread instead
of -lpthread)
from jakemsr (Jacob Meuser)
x264 is a free library for encoding H264/AVC video streams.
This program requires a processor with recent instructions (MMX/SSE for
i386, AltiVec for powerpc).
Encoder features:
* CAVLC/CABAC
* Multi-references
* Intra: all macroblock types (16x16, 8x8, and 4x4 with all predictions)
* Inter P: all partitions (from 16x16 down to 4x4)
* Inter B: partitions from 16x16 down to 8x8 (including skip/direct)
* Ratecontrol: constant quantizer, single or multipass ABR, optional VBV
* Scene cut detection
* Adaptive B-frame placement
* B-frames as references / arbitrary frame order
* 8x8 and 4x4 adaptive spatial transform
* Lossless mode
* Custom quantization matrices
* Parallel encoding of multiple slices
* Interlacing

MKVToolnix: cross-platform tools for Matroska.
With these tools one can get information about (mkvinfo) Matroska files,
extract tracks/data from (mkvextract) Matroska files and create
(mkvmerge) Matroska files from other media files.
Available flavors:
no_x11 - do not build the wxGTK2 frontend

ffmpeg2theora is a simple command line tool to convert media files to
.ogg with Theora video and Vorbis audio streams. It supports reading any
file format that ffmpeg can decode.

thingy. It can be used on its own, compiles very simply, and this package
even comes with a manpage.
dvdcpy can be used to copy part of a dvd structure to a hard disk.
