Welcome to the Zoo project Home Page

Hi,
Zoo is a C++ video processing toolkit for Linux. As of today it is in its early (alpha) stage. However, the first release is out to let you guys try it and see what it looks like.

Functionality

What Zoo has now is:

MPEG1/MPEG2 stream demultiplexor
AVI stream demultiplexor
MPEG1/MPEG2 video decoder (still buggy and sucks)
OSS-based audio output module
SDL-based video output module
dll management service

Version 0.0.2 also has:

IEE1394 utilities (video grabbing, possibly multi-path)
Wrappers to third-party libraries: libdv, lame, and OpenDivX
applications: compressor into DivX, AVI builder, etc.

The bad news is that documentation still reflects 0.0.1 state (to be updated).
