Re: Fork of Octave Forge video package

[Yufei Yuan]

Hi,

Thanks for bringing the Hg repo to my attention. I am new to Octave and only found the video package from octave-forge website. So why is that package not updated yet if we've had an updated version in the repo?

I thought it's faster track to have something working out there rather than waiting for it to be reviewed or having check-in privilege, especially since it appears that there is no maintainer for the package at this point of time.

I would be more than happy to have the fork merged back to the official Hg repo if I could be granted the permission.

Regards,
Yufei

Hi 

I just came across the fork you have recently started on github of 
Octave's Forfe video package[1]. Would you consider to develop on the 
package which is currently unmaintained, rather than forking it? We 
have recently prepared a mercurial repo of it[2] in the hopes to ease 
other users in developing it. 

You started your fork from the package version 1.0.2 which was 
released more than 4 years ago. There has been more changes to the 
package since to make up for the changing API of ffmpeg.
