Hi, I want to use Gem to synchronize several linux machines playing high resolution videos 1440x1080 or 1920x1080. any comments on that??? At the moment I ran into some problems.
(autoplay 1) it works fine, but when I want to change to another movie and send [open movie2.avi( then everything almost freezes and the speed of the gem output reduces to maybe one or two frames per seconds. (the movies are the same codec, the order does not matter, I also can't load the same movie twice.) 2) to get the highest quality I am playing around with mplayer to try some codecs. I found lavc in connection with mjpeg a working solutions, but if anyone could help me with that, would be great. (mencoder /data/chr.mov -oac pcm -o /data/chr_enc1.avi -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mjpeg) 3) please feel free to add any comments on high definition videos in connection with gem. like about the use of keyframes, preferable framerates, I searched the archieves, but all the threads seem to die after some time... marius.
