The goals for Open Cinema Tools are:
* Creation of DCP from source files
* Support for multi-reel DCPs with several audio and subtitle tracks

If you want to convert DVD subtitles into text format (e.g. subrip
format) or VobSub format this program could be useful for you.
However, it is only one tiny tool that you need in the process of
producing srt files. This software depends heavily on transcode
for its input and is therefore part of the transcode package (see
transcode's contrib directory). So, if you want to convert some
subtitles, grap a copy of the lates transcode distribution.
For srt file production the output of this program should be processed
by some OCR software. Currently, I work with GOCR for this purpose.
For VobSub output no other tools are required.
This is a _simple_ xaw-based TV Program which uses the bttv driver or
video4linux (included in 2.1.x). Copy Policy is GNU GPL.
MPlayer-based thumbnail generator for video files.
libfame is a video encoding library.
It can currently encode MPEG-1 and MPEG-4 rectangular video, as well as
MPEG-4 video with arbitrary shape.
Objectives
- Compliance : Provide bitstreams compliant to the MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and
MPEG-4 video standards.
- Speed : Provide a fast implementation of the techniques used in MPEG
standards.
- Flexibility : Allow the user to choose between different options for
speed, compression ratio and quality.
- Portability : Support many different platforms and architectures.

It is a free library for decoding mpeg-2 and mpeg-1 video
streams. The main goals in libmpeg2 development are:
Conformance - libmpeg2 is able to decode all mpeg streams that
conform to certain restrictions: "constrained parameters" for
mpeg-1, and "main profile" for mpeg-2. In practice, this is what
most people are using. For streams that follow these restrictions,
we believe libmpeg2 is 100% conformant to the mpeg standards - and
we have a pretty extensive test suite to check this.
Speed - for most current systems, the display will actually take
more time than the mpeg-2 decoding. For systems that have hardware
color conversion and scaling (as we can use with the xv extension
in Xfree 4), you should be able to watch DVD streams on a Celeron
400. On a PIII/666 with null display you should get about 110 frames
per second.
Portability - most of the code is written in C, and when we use
platform-specific optimizations we always have a generic C routine
to fall back on.
libde265 is an open source implementation of the h.265 video codec. It is
written from scratch and has a plain C API to enable a simple integration
into other software.
libde265 supports WPP and tile-based multithreading and includes SSE
optimizations. The decoder includes all features of the Main profile
and correctly decodes almost all conformance streams.
The Quasar DV codec (libdv) is a software codec for DV video, the
encoding format used by most digital camcorders, typically those
that support the IEEE 1394 (a.k.a. FireWire or i.Link) interface.
Libdv was developed according to the official standards for DV
video: IEC 61834 and SMPTE 314M.
Please note that this software is only concerned with the DV video
compression format, which is different from capturing the data from
a camcorder.
abby is a front-end for cclive and clive utilities that can
be used to download videos from Youtube and similar video
websites.
