[PD-announce] PiDiP 0.8.4 [ more streaming ]

[Yves Degoyon]

hi,

hum, i had a real hard time doing this one
and it's not even finished ( just kind of useable now )

i've added this object : pdp_live~ that enables
you to receive a video stream ( at least from ffserver ).

i would have liked to test it against
a video stream form the web
but i couldn't find a decent one ( 24h stream ?? ).
if you know of such stream, let me know about it off-list.

from CHANGES.LOG :

0.8.4
  added pdp_live~ : receive a video feed, at least from a ffmpeg server 
( ffserver )
  fixed resampling in pdp_ffmpeg~ : resizing to a bigger image used to 
crash PD
  ( now, you can't resize to a bigger scale, blame it on libavcodec )

from KNOWN.BUGS :

pdp_live~ : requires a huge block size to operate ( otherwise, sound is 
shitty )
pdp_live~ : sound is played a little bit faster, i guess it should be 
synchronized somehow ( it's not a resampling problem here )

enjoy!!
