TheoraVideoPlugin

From Ogre Wiki

This is the Wiki home for the new and improved Ogre Theora Video Plugin.

With this plugin, you can stream Ogg Theora video files in your 3D application. Frames are extracted and copied onto a texture and audio is abstracted out and can be used as eg. OgreAL::Sound, FMOD, or your custom audio system.

This Wiki is designed to provide as much information about the plugin use and development as humanly possible. If you want to edit/write articles, read the Ogre Handbook first.

I've optimized the code a bit, simplified the frame transfer code by introducing BGR output mode into Theora Playback library. I'll work on the code in the following weeks, to make sure everything works. I'll fix the remaining demos and release 1.0 RC1 SDK.

Also, this is the last news entry that is entered via the wiki, all future news will be posted on sourceforge's news page.

I've begun working on the new ogrevideo plugin, Basically it will be an interface between libtheoraplayer and Ogre. I intend to develop on Ogre 1.6; Ogre 1.7 port (if necessary) will be done in the future. Expect a RC1 release after the new interface is complete.

Those of you who prefer using the old version, you can find it in the SVN at branches/monolith or trunk revision 96.

libtheoraplayer 1.0 RC1 has just been released, once 1.0 is released, I'll make a wrapper for ogre as promised.

have a look at http://libtheoraplayer.sf.net . You'll find the 1.0 RC1 SDK with five compiled demo programs to wet your appetite ;)
