Description Frank W. Josellis 2007-11-24 11:40:01 UTC

I have just noticed that multimedia/nuppelvideo is scheduled for expiration.
In that case, however, I suggest to do the same with multimedia/exportvideo,
since the exportvideo port is merely designed as an add-on to nuppelvideo. In
particular, I had supplied a script with exportvideo (nuv4dvd) which depends
on nuvplay and will turn useless once nuppelvideo is gone. The purpose of
exportvideo was to enable the transcoding .nuv -> .mpg using mjpegtools as
advertised in the nuppelvideo documentation. It is fairly obsolete without
nuppelvideo.

	Hi,

	I wasn't aware of multimedia/exportvideo, but I would think that
since mencoder has support for nuppelvideo this is as obsolete as
nuppelvideo. Nuppelvideo is slated for removal because it is unmaintained
upstream (for a long time now) and does not compile with modern compilers.
