[xine-devel] Mpeg2 decoder plugin for Xine with 3:2 pulldown inversion

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Hi!

This plugin lets you view DVD movies encoded for NTSC output.  It will
detect and invert 3:2 pulldown.  This lets you view these movies
without the interlace artefacts caused by the pulldown.

This is better then using the deinterlacer built into xine, because:

  - It does not cause degradation of the picture quality

  - Playing will be smoother and will not have a stuttering appearance

You can download the source from:

  http://www.inf.bme.hu/~mszeredi/advd/advd-1.0.tar.gz

Or get the binary plugin compiled for xine version 0.9.8:

  http://www.inf.bme.hu/~mszeredi/advd/xineplug_decode_mpv.so

To use the plugin, simply copy it to the xine plugin directory
(/usr/local/lib/xine/plugins/ or /usr/lib/xine/plugins/)

Before you start xine, you should set the MPV_PLUGIN_PRIORITY
environment variable to 2.  E.g. for bash:

   export MPV_PLUGIN_PRIORITY=2

or for csh:

   setenv MPV_PLUGIN_PRIORITY 2
