Good Morning campers, I need some help from people running rawhide or a test release to help me prep a new istanbul package for the devel tree aimed at fc6. Since I couldn't find a sucker..err uhm volunteer...to take this package over before I left for the great white north.. this thing is still sort of sitting in limbo. The good news is I have a package building for istanbul 0.2.1 using the gstreamer bits from core development. The bad news is I really can't follow this up with the appropriate amount of devel tree testing myself, I simply don't have the bandwidth at home right now to run a development box. So what I need is for someone to act as my proxy and help me test to make sure the basic minimum of functionality works.... even if the video is still rough. More excitingly the new istanbul claims it can do audio recording and claims it can record the mouse pointer... so if the new features work then we have a pretty useful tool to create theora tour videos. Regardless of how well it actually functions, the first step is making sure it does build and does the basic operation on a devel box. I can email my latest srpm to people who want to test this on a devel box. Sadly I don't have a good place to park the srpm for people to upload right now. Any takers? Backstory: Since the magic behind instanbul is just a fancy presentation of several gst modules working together, the underlying gst modules need to be present for istanbul to work. As of the time of my move to the great white north, the move to gst .10 had left the necessary modules to do X display capture out of the "good" category and it was instead lingering in the low quality category (not the legally grey category). As a result istanbul 0.2.1 will not work on fc5.. but it does appear that the needed gst module is in fc6's gstreamer-plugins-good package. -jef -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
