A package was submitted to savannah.gnu.org.
This mail was sent to address@hidden, address@hidden
jaromil <address@hidden> described the package as follows:
License: gpl
Other License:
Package: FreeJ
System name: freej
This package does NOT want to apply for inclusion in the GNU project
FreeJ aims to be a digital instrument for video livesets, featuring realtime
rendering of multilayered video and chained effect filtering directly on the
screen. FreeJ threats every video source as a layer, making then possible to
dynamically apply on each a chain of filters, loadable as effect plugins and
easily customizable.
Layers are planned for rendering of analog video input, digital movie files,
image bitmaps, sound scopes, texts and eventually more. FreeJ is being
developed in the hope to provide the GNU community with a free, modular and
highly customizable application to perform video livesets, based on a GPLed
framework that lets anybody implement his own filters concentrating simply on
the dsp algorithm developed and furthermore to combine them over any supported
layer.
Internals
FreeJ, as a free modularized GNU/Linux framework, permits unified quality
control over the rendering of digital video processing and makes it much easier
to write effect algorithms keeping them compatible with as much devices as
possible and making them relying on optimized code. FreeJ is being developed in
c++ respecting POSIX compliance. For rendering to screen is being linked shared
the Simple Directmedia Layer library. As a realtime architecture FreeJ aims to
make efficient use of multithreading and mmx cpu specific intructions
optimizing the usage of hardware resources. There\'s only one layer implemented
yet wich makes use of the video4linux abstracted device for capturing live
video input from the many linux supported hardware devices (which includes
bttv, usb cams and more). Alltough possible, is not planned any porting to
platforms other than GNU/Linux at least in the earliest development phases.
