My first project under Linux - GNOME Optical tools
Posted by Mike on Wed 01.Oct.2008, 20:14 (9431 reads)
Topic: Software
| 2 years ago I began experimenting with Linux and in this time, Linux became my main operating system. It has many advantages over Windows, more possibilities to study new things, create scripts to perform repeated tasks, so it was only matter of time to start with some real project.
GNOME Optical Tools (got for short) is software for info and checking of optical drives a media under Linux. Currently it supports CD and DVD only and is based on Qpxtool, which does the same (and more), but under QT3. GNOME Optical Tools needs Gtk++, so it is best run under GNOME as the name says.
More info and download can you find here.

Posted by Mike on Mon 07.Apr.2008, 6:04 (9088 reads)
Topic: Software
| Here is first version of ATV3 - digital (DVB-T) viewer, still under development and preview release only. Implemented main functionality for reception, teletext and EPG. There is no OSD and no capture, it will be implemented in future versions. It requires DVB-T card with BDA drivers, DirectX 9 and ffdshow installed. Release notes:
- first public release
- implemented main functionality for viewing of video stream
- needed Video Mixing Renderer 9 (VMR9) for future functionality
- needed ffdshow video decoder
- implemented DVB sections reader for channel scanning and EPG
- rewritten teletext decoder filter from ATV2000 to support VMR9 mixing (some bugs expected for use with ATV2000, so it is not recommended to use ATV2000 and ATV3 at the same time with teletext)
- implemented base EPG data viewing, will be rewritten

APL2000 2.3.0.0 released
Posted by Mike on Wed 12.Mar.2008, 6:14 (8460 reads)
Topic: Software
| May be you ask, why the updates takes so long. The main reason is incoming in our family - my daughter Alice. Second reason is my switch to Linux as my first OS, which took a lot of time. And last but not least is it my work.
But the development was not stopped. As the analog TV will be switched off in 1-2 years, i experiment with new version of ATV, but for DVB-T reception. Sure it will be free and it will have some uncommon features like ATV2000. It you want i speed up my work, please donate ;)
OK, here is another update - for APL2000. The main change is adding of video analysis. With this i have done some video codec tests (you can see it here). So what's new:
- replaced video statistics to video analyze - bitrate, histogram and DCT coefficients
- fixed crash on video statistics (now analyze)
- can save obtained data to text file
- disabling preview in analyze will discard video decompressor, so bitrate statistics is very fast
- enabled video bitrate on windows media video - it seems to work, previously it doesn't due to bug (?) in MS's filters
- can save results of analysis
- can process more files for analysis at once
- added support for Nero Digital format and AviSynth source
- added support for VP7 codec
Download it here.

Also this program stays on fundamental "crossroad". It is obvious, that the VfW interface is the past. Please let me know, if you are using it already or should i remove it from the package. It is important for next development and DVB-T implementation. Please vote in the poll.
