Description

Could we also add DVDStyler to our software list

Website: http://www.dvdstyler.org/en/

Event Timeline

Please provide a link to the tarball.

We are going to need the following packaged first:

  • cdrtools
  • dvdauthor
  • dvd+rw-tools
  • libexif12
  • wxGTK
  • wxSVG
  • xine-ui
  • dvdisaster (optional)

should I make separate task for these? Sorry very very new user here with loads of linux experience but little Solus Experience

No. Once these are packaged then this is going to be packaged next.

So after further review, this relies on several libraries that are 2-4 years out of date and no longer actively maintained. Sorry, but I have to reject this.

Per the revised Software Inclusion Policy and the multiple requests this week for this, I am reopening this and will personally take a look at this.

Good morning,

Is this project progressing?

@alphaxave Please don't go around bumping Tasks asking for status updates.

If it were progressing, any mention of that would be seen here or on a related patch submission (See the "Details" section of this page). This has been accepted for inclusion, which means anyone is free to try and package it. As it is unassigned, no one has claimed that they are working on it. Thanks.

This has sat in accepted for inclusion for over a year now. Clearly, there is a lack of demand for the inclusion of this software, nobody has stepped up to provide a patch, maintain it, and properly integrate it. Closing as a result. Feel free to reopen but only when someone offers a patch via our proper patch submission methods and volunteers to be maintainer.

For those who use this software: it originally uses Xine player as the previewer for DVDs, however packaging and integrating it is a pain. The software seems to support and provide the same functionality with VLC. Does VLC do the job, or is Xine required?

The Only reason it uses Xine is for the DVD remote interface which VLC Uses. This allows us to test the menu navigation. if VLC can do the same, then I would not have an issue with it at all. So its not so much about the playing video capability (Although that is important) its more about the UI.

I see. I do not think VLC has that functionality, so I will work on Xine. Would you have the time to test this out @selwynorren?

Yes absolutely, will be most happy to do so

Might come back to this later, the xine dependency is proving time consuming.

This has sat in accepted for inclusion for over 30 days. Clearly, there is a lack of demand for the inclusion of this software, nobody has stepped up to provide a completed patch, maintain it, and properly integrate it. Closing as a result. Feel free to reopen but only when someone offers a patch via our proper patch submission methods and volunteers to be maintainer.
