- seek() is always synchronized to keyframes, so the decoders don't
crash anymore; successfully tested with libmpeg2 and ffmpeg12
- support for tables PAT and PMT, used the associate pids to program and
to play the right streams
- option -tsprog <number> to specify the chosen program (-vid and -aid
still override the single stream pids)
- initial support for MPEG4 in TS (M4V is working, but not AAC yet)
- defragmenting mechanism (without buffering, so it has 0 added cost) to
improve the playback of high bitrate movies
- refers to demux_mpg_control() to get length and percentage position
in the stream

mga_vid - MGA G200/G400 YUV Overlay kernel module Author: Aaron Holtzman <aholtzma@ess.engr.uvic.ca>, Oct 1999 Contributions by: Fredrik Vraalsen <vraalsen@cs.uiuc.edu> Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> WARNING ----- WARNING This code messes with your video card and your xserver. It will probably lock up your box, format your hard drive, and cause your brand new g400 MAX to spout 6 inch flames. You have been warned. WARNING ----- WARNING What does this code do? mga_vid is a kernel module that utilitizes the Matrox g200/g400 video scaler/overlay unit to perform YUV->RGB colorspace conversion and arbitrary video scaling. mga_vid is also a monster hack. How does mga_vid work? This kernel module sets up the BES (backend scaler) with approriate values based on parameters supplied via ioctl. It also maps a chunk of video memory into userspace via mmap. This memory is stolen from X (which may decide to write to it later). The application can then write image data directly to the frame buffer (if it knows the right padding, etc). How do I know if mga_vid works on my system? There are test applications called mga_vid_test_g400 and mga_vid_test_g200. Use the appropriate one for your card. This test code should draw some nice 256x256 images for you if all is working well.
