Technical: NihAV repository snapshots are available over HTTPS

Some people complained that they can’t clone NihAV code. I suspect the problem comes from the hosting provider blocking connections thanks to excessive mirroring requests and I can’t do much about it. But for the curious ones I’ve put git bundles on https://nihav.org/ which can be used as a source of cloning.

Considering the glacial pace of the project development I don’t see a reason to update them often so there’s no point in constantly checking if there’s a new version available on the server. But if you’re curious about the things my software does not support or fails to do—you’re welcome to check it out.

    Thanks.

    I have found https://git.nihav.org/?p=nihav.git;a=snapshot;h=master;sf=tgz also works. This is just a dump of the files, no git history though.

    The FFmpeg code quality drops again, and all very recent mailing list drama does not help situation at all.

    See American Laser Games MM demuxer, in FFmpeg it cant even support proper seeking.

    Yet again, Librempeg have bunch more fresh new decoders and demuxers added recently.

    Why, that drama helps demonstrating that it’s not just technical quality that goes downhill.

    So if you keep improving Librempeg you have a good chance in surpassing it in overall quality.

    (Also sorry for the late reply, for some reason WordPress decided to put your comment on moderation and not even notify me about it. Its quality is going downhill too apparently)

    Ah, good, I was wondering that you have something against innocent mm demuxer from libavformat.
    Peter, please fix seeking in mm demuxer, feel free to steal librempeg code.

    I like how your seeking in mm uses the pixel refresh of the codec to slowly update the frame.
