MJPEG Tools

Not Rated
Description
The mjpeg programs are a set of tools that can do recording of videos and playback, simple cut-and-paste editing and the MPEG compression of audio and video under Linux. This package combines them with important supporting libraries required for their use.

The "lavrec" utility supplied supports capture from Zoran based MJPEG capture/playback cards like the Buz (Iomega), DC10 (MIRO, Pinnacle) and the LML33 (Linux Media Labs). Compatible MJPEG avi files can also be created using any frame-grabbing card supported by the xawtv tool.

Videos recorded in this can be filtered, editted, and converted to MPEG streams. The MPEG encoder is optimised for high quality results at medium to high bit-rates (1Mbps upwards) and supports MMX/SSE/3D-Now and SMP. A Duron 700 can deliver around 15-20 352x288 frames per second.

A key design objective of the tools is interoperability with other video tools: currently xawtv, bcast2000, nuppelvideo and vcdimager are known to interoperate. The MJPEG utilities can read AVI, Quicktime, and movtar streams. The MPEG encoder can produce streams suitable for buring to VCD/SVCD using vcdimager or similar tools. The software playback of MPEG streams works with almost every player and every OS. SSE/MMX and 3D-Now! are supported permitting a 700Mhz CPU to deliver arond 15-20 VCD frames/second.
