movieinfo is a Perl module created to dump information about movie file(s).

USAGE

movieinfo < movie files[s] >

Largely based around mplayers midentify script this will dump information about various formats of movie file (depending on what codecs you have installed for mplayer).

XMovie was originally written as a simple, fast method to play uncompressed movies with stereo sound back when the only uncompressed movie player was xanim and the only MPEG player was MTV.

XAnim didnt play stereo sound and MTV was a $15 shareware. Hard to believe how todays applications toss movies around like nothing when just 4 years ago it was an ordeal just to play an MPEG stream.

XMovie is mainly intended for uncompressed movie playback, nonstandard output from Cinelerra, and testing decoder libraries.

Its not intended for low resolution, low bitrate internet downloads. Your luck will improve with something like M Player

6 channels of audio can be sent to a soundcard supporting 6 channel audio. More importantly, HDTV program and ATSC transport streams play back.

These streams are usually obtained through a capture board like the WinTV HD, set top box hacking, or other means. Forget about downloading HDTV moviez from the internet.

Ipod MovieMaker project is a dialog windows bash script which allows you to merge *.txt subtitles with all formats of movie files and save it in avi format. You may convert all kinds of video to .mp4 which is Ipod Video compatible format.
You will be only questioned about the location of a source movie, subtitles, encoding (default WINDOWS-1250), font location (default /home/$USER/.mplayer/font/subfont.ttf), and where to save reasult .mp4 file. You can have each work done seperatly or have whole process done from hardcoding subtitles to encoding to ipod format.
Installation:
- Make sure that you have mencoder and ffmpeg compiled with libxvid, libfaac codecs enable
- Make sure you have proper true type font installed in /home/$USER/.mplayer/font directory
- Make sure you have compiled gtkpod with libfaac codec to upload movies on Ipod video
- to get this script working write this in your console
chmod 755 ipodmoviemaker
cp ipodmoviemaker /usr/bin/

jasciimovie plays ASCII movies - sequences of digitized video converted into an ASCII representation - in a webbrowser via Java.

An ascii-movie is a plain text file of screens seperated by escape codes for clearing the screen (in hex notation 1B 5B 48 1B 5B 4A).

These ascii-movies can get produced by the asciivideo sample program that is
included with the "libbgrab" package by me.

The movie files have to be compressed with "gzip -9" which saves incredible
amounts of space.

Compilation and Usage:

- Prerequisites: JDK 1.1.x+ installed and in the path
- To compile type: make
- To test: fire up a java-capable browser with the file jasciimovie.html

See the file jasciimovie.html for how to incorporate the applet in your webpage.

Configurable parameters are: the filename (the movie file must be in the same directory as the .html file), the fontsize (usable are 8,10,12,14), a flag of the movies gets repeated at the end, the frame rate and the colors.

The program tries to center the ascii-movie within the applet.

A copyright message is beeing displayed for 2 seconds at the beginning of playback.

A sample movie (cfilm.txt.gz) is included - look at the file also with "zless cfilm.txt.gz" to see the individual frames.

Keep the image files

copyright.gif
pause.gif
stop.gif

also in the same directory as the .html file.

MovieSlave is a very simple cross-platform (Windows, Linux) movie manager.
