RE: Receiving Video from other Computer

[Arne S. <ar...@sc...>]

libdv does both NTSC and PAL, if it is a recent version.

There is a flag in the DV data that identifies NTSC or PAL format. Check the 
playdv.c from libdv for more info. My dvgrab program also distinguishes NTSC 
and PAL, but it is not so straightforward there (I should really fix this).

That looks exactly like an NTSC DV decoder fed with PAL DV material.
The 'DVGate Still' windoze app that came with my Vaio did the same
thing. Unfortunately it doesn't autodetect the video standard - it's
hard-coded with a registry setting!!! I'd hope that xdv can do
better than that (eventually).

I heard that libdv is currently NTSC only - maybe that explains it?

Otherwise nice work :)

Brian.
