OpenDML AVI support (AVI's can be DivX, XVID, ect.)

Support for OpenDML AVI video file container/format. OpenDML is a never AVI format that support files larger than 2GB and has different header and functions.

Current limitation in XBMC/XBMP is that without this support most OpenDML AVI's do not start at all and those that do start you can't FFWD or RWD in, also when it comes up to 2048MB they stop.

MPlayer does not yet suppport this but I'm pretty sure XINE does and support for it has just recently been implemented into FFmpeg's avformat CVS source code. Hopefully MPlayer will support it soon and when it does that will be ported over to XBMC as well :)

For reference: Old supported AVI format is "RIFF AVI 1.0"

MPlayer 1.0pre3 released, Codecs & demuxers update: saveable and loadable index files (workaround for formats not supporting files over 2GB)

I wonder if this workaround would help in playing OpenDML AVI's onder 2GB in size? I realize that even if it did, this would not be a permanent solution and would not solve other OpenDML issues in MPlayer

OpenDML (AVI 2.0) in MPlayer soon?!

a Patch has been submited to MPlayer for OpenDML AVI2.0 read support, so now all we have to do is wait until the MPlayer devs test and implement this patch into their CVS, then it can be ported over into XBMP.

If you like to comment on this please subscribe to MPlayer's mailing list and send them a mail as will not get OpenDML AVI support until MPlayer does. I've sent mail to MPlayer's mailing list before but I'm only one person and it was not enough to pursway the MPlayer developers, really what you all (users) need you do sing up to thier mailing lists (or mail will be rejected) and send them mails lobbying why and how you want 'full and compelete OpenDML AVI support in MPlayer' as the more poeple who writes to them to show the demand for OpenDML support the bigger the chance is that they will actualy listen and code this. No pun intended thoughwards the MPlayer guys and their great project and skills. www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design6/info.html#mailing_lists
