xjadeo-0.4.0-rc1  - X Jack Video Monitor
http://xjadeo.sourceforge.net/
Xjadeo is a simple movie player that synchronizes video to an external

time source such as jack transport. It is intended to aid sound

composition to a video clip.
This is a rewrite of the previous 0.1 release and a

conclusion of the ongoing development during the last year.
New Features include

 * displays: Xv, x11+imlib2

 * fullscreen and letterbox video

 * improved video file reading via ffmpeg

 * on screen display

 * configuration file

 * LASH - session management

 * optional GUI - qjadeo

 * remote control interface

 * Midi Time Clock quarterframe sync

 * documentation

 * OSX support (experimental)
Release Notes:
Mixing ffmepg and Xv may produce unexpected effects on some

architectures. Please report them as those are the main reason for this

release-candidate: http://xjadeo.sourceforge.net/doc/ar01s03.html#problems
Although there are many new Features, only the on-screen-display might

have an impact on the perfomance of xjadeo. since 0.3.13 xjadeo

uses gettimeofday(3) for it's internal timekeeping. - it appears that

using clock(3) was a major-bug in the original xjadeo code, though not

harmful.
The default xjadeo configuration is to run with a low profile:

Additional Features need to be enabled explicitly (LASH is an

exception). Performance highly depends on the Codec and geometry of the

video file: the -K, -k arguments allow to seek many file formats - but

is intended only for preview!

http://xjadeo.sourceforge.net/doc/ar01s03.html#video_formats
There are open ends in osX support: This version includes workarounds

for use with ffmpeg on PPC. , but they might not work for all versions

of ffmpeg. - Are you an intel-mac user who succeeded to run 'make test'

in the ffmpeg svn src? - give us a wink  :)
http://packman.links2linux.org/package/xjadeo/ provides SuSE-RPMs for

i586 and also for x64-64bit. many thanks! We are pleasantly surprised,

since we expected serious video-Codec and xjadeo-Xv problems for 64 bit

architecture. We have not tested any of the RPMs ourselves. - imlib

display + mjpeg codec should work though.
A beta-devel debian package can be built from source and the

xjadeo.spec.in is intended for FC4 RPMs.
