When a timestamp is present in more than one set (highlights/std/extended) there’s no need to re-capture it.

This is a meta-item depending on bugs/features required to complete before releasing vcs 1.12

End offset will be set to a small percentage of the length (5.5%? –5m for 90m–), applicable always by default, instead of a fixed value

MIN_LENGTH_FOR_END_OFFSET was deprecated in 1.11 and will be ignored starting with 1.12.

The new behaviour is to apply by default a small end offset always, based on the video length. Users will be able to disable this with either -E0 or config option end_offset=0

With the introduction of profiles vcs will need directories to place them.

Using vcs-nix might be safer since vcs is too short and too meaningful (Version Control System) to hijack it safely.

Candidates:

• Site-wide: /usr/share/vcs/profiles, /usr/local/share/vcs/profiles/
• User-local: ~/.vcs/profiles/

shoehorn is most probably no longer needed (or even working) with the complexity vcs has gained over time

–mincho was replaced with –nonlatin in 1.11

Complete manpage.

This is a meta-item depending on bugs/features required to complete before releasing vcs 1.12.1

This is a meta-item depending on bugs/features required to complete before releasing vcs 1.12.2.

1.12.2 might be skipped and its items pushed back to 1.13.

Uses VP8 video and Vorbis audio.

Current Status:

Identification

MPlayer: Video detected as VP80
FFmpeg:
* 0.5.1+svn20100311: Not supported (fails in the safe-length-detection stage)
* 0.6~svn20100603: Video detected as libvpx

Capture

Both appear to work fine.

Bugfixes from the 1.13 branch should be backported to 1.12, since 1.13 will need a lot of testing.

The function that vcs.conf in current dir accomplished is covered by profiles. If wanted it can still be manually loaded with -C :pwd or -C vcs.conf

Bash 2 syntax has been the norm for most versions (although broken in some).

So far none of the major distributions is using bash 2, bash 4 is already gold but not widely-used enough.

Only a few special purpose/minimal distros like DSL retain bash 2.05b, but vcs requires recent versions of ImageMagick, Mplayer and FFmpeg anyway. I can’t see a reason to retain such backwards compatibility.

The filmstrip mode has had a placeholder implementation since the start, it should look closer to an actual film strip.

Safe length measuring, when probing the video length, prints only the number of seconds and milliseconds, it would be better to display a more readable format.

mplayer: FPS1

i.e.:
ID_VIDEO_CODEC=fffraps
ID_VIDEO_FORMAT=FPS1

ffmpeg: fraps

i.e.:
Stream #0.0: Video: fraps, yuvj420p, 1680x1050, 30 fps, 30 tbr, 30 tbn, 30 tbc

Meta-task depending on tasks scheduled for the 1.1 release

PyCryptoPlus is a drop-in replacement for PyCrypto written in Python, meaning it can run much more easily on Windows.

lxml provides a cleaner (or more pythonic) implementation, is easier to install and more commonly required.
