Scary Cat
I’ve been learning Linux Video in anticipation of a digital camcorder that I’ve ordered—a Panasonic NV-GS400. My understanding is every new parent needs a digital camcorder or will never be able to remember their child’s childhood. So here I go.
Anyway, here’s my first feature-length (well, one minute) film, entitled Scary Cat. It has a fair amount of dramatic tension, so you may want to get a cup of chamomille tea first. It is available in three versions:
- Scary Cat (Broadband Version 8.8M)
- Scary Cat (Dial-up Version 0.8M)
- Scary Cat (Huge Version – T1 – 26M) — encoded with ‘fourcc’, the new name for DivX, you may need a new player to view

Created using Kino, which deserves to be boosted at least two positions in its Google placement.
I’d welcome feedback—especially let me know if you can’t play the video. Be gentle, though, it’s my first attempt.

That was really scary. I was getting allergic just watching it!

Yay, a new Kino user! Be sure to install the plugin packages (kinoplus, kino-timfx and kino-dvtitler). You may also want to install ffmpeg2theora, which contains a Kino export script for Theora. It’s not officially packaged yet, but there’s an ITP and you can find the packages on my unofficial repository.
vlc was able to play both the small and medium versions of your film, but I had to run ffplay (from the ffmpeg package) to get the large one.

Plays fine with the version of xine in Sarge. However VLC gets the audio but no video.
