Dear all,

I recently upgraded to the SVN version of freevo and I got a problem
with the encoding server, which I luckily could solve.  The problem
has not much to do with freevo but is an mplayer problem.

The freevo version is: 11634 but the problem starts from version 1129
The mplayer version is: MPlayer 1.0rc2-4.2.4 (C) 2000-2007 MPlayer Team

mplayer is not dealing correctly with the following command that the
encoder server is using to detect the crop area:
/usr/bin/mplayer -vf cropdetect=30 -nosound -vo null -fps 540 -demuxer
lavf -sstep 71 /freevo/recording/10-14-09_22:45.mpeg
This command starts of good but it results in an endless loop at the
end of the file.
My encoding server log file is filled with: 2009-10-28 22:12:48,806
DEBUG    encodingcore.py (971): line='[CROP] Crop area: X: 8..709  Y:
0..479  (-vf crop=688:480:16:0).'

On the user interface is this showing as an endless  "Please wait,
analyzing video..." dialogue in the user inteface.

The problem seams to be the "-demuxer lavf" part. When I delete this
in the encodingservermain.py  filer are things working again.

I think that this is mainly a problem of my version of mplayer, but I
wanted to know:
A. What is the function of "-demuxer lavf"? Am I getting a new problem
when I delete this?
B. Does more people have this problem?   Should I make a patch out of this?


Kind regards,

Han
