It requires: mpeg2enc ppmtoy4m pngtopnm The first two are in the mjpegtools package for Ubuntu. Not enough pngtopnm. At the moment, I see in the console: ------------------ mkNoSignal.sh: 10: pngtopnm: not found INFO: [ppmtoy4m] Command-line Parameters: INFO: [ppmtoy4m] framerate: 25:1 INFO: [ppmtoy4m] pixel aspect ratio: 4:3 INFO: [ppmtoy4m] pixel packing: RGB INFO: [ppmtoy4m] interlace: none/progressive INFO: [ppmtoy4m] starting frame: 0 INFO: [ppmtoy4m] # of frames: 1, repeat last frame until done INFO: [ppmtoy4m] chroma subsampling: 4:2:0 MPEG-2 (horiz. cositing) **ERROR: [ppmtoy4m] Failed to read first frame.

Where can I get a binary deb-package pngtopnm/pnmtopng? _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
