ELCE 2007 videos

Free videos of CELF's Embedded Linux Conference Europe / 9th Real-Time Linux Workshop in Linz, Austria, November 2007.

We are happy to release the videos that we took at the CELF Embedded Linux Conference Europe 2007 / 9th Real-Time Linux Workshop which happened in Linz, Austria in November, 2007.

These new videos are available on our conference videos page. Slides are available for some of the presentations we didn't manage to film.

To speed up the processing of these videos, we contracted Jan Gerber, the developer of ffmpeg2theora, to add denoising support to this tool. Thanks to this contribution, it is now possible for anyone in the community to directly denoise DV camcorder input and generate Ogg/Theora video in just 1 step. Before it was necessary to use mencoder's denoising filter, and because mencoder couldn't process DV input properly, a preprocessing stage with ffmpeg was also required. This new functionality can also improve the quality and compression rate of live Ogg/Theora video broadcasts.
