=== Daala hackathon ===
Open to anyone curious about Daala or video coding in general, we can help you write your first patch or teach you things!

To get started you can clone the Daala repository:

<code>
git clone https://github.com/xiph/daala.git
</code>

* How to build and run Daala: https://wiki.xiph.org/Daala_Quickstart
* Demonstrations and explanations of some of the techniques used in Daala: https://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont/demo/
** Note that some of the older demos do not match what is in Daala anymore.
** For more details see https://wiki.xiph.org/Daala#Documents and https://wiki.xiph.org/Daala#Presentations
* Easy bugs to fix: https://github.com/xiph/daala/labels/easy

=== Dinner ===
Around 19:00 at ''Au Metro''.

19 Rue de Malte, 75011 Paris
Metro ''Filles du Calvaire'' or ''Oberkampf''

This dinner is '''not''' sponsored by VideoLAN.

= Practical information =

== Emergency situation ==
In case of emergency, call the European emergency number '''112'''.

== Location / main venue ==
The venue is in Paris (France), 9th district, near St Lazare:

Criteo 
32 rue Blanche 
75009 Paris, France

[https://www.google.fr/maps/place/Criteo/@48.878914,2.3315591,17z/data=!4m6!1m3!3m2!1s0x47e66e04d509ec8f:0xbf35e94464e752f7!2sCriteo!3m1!1s0x47e66e04d509ec8f:0xbf35e94464e752f7 Google Maps]

== Accomodation / Hotel ==
For sponsored participants, the hotel is:

Timhotel Berthier Paris 17 
4 Boulevard Berthier 
75017 Paris, France

http://www.timhotel-berthier-paris-17.com/ 
[https://www.google.fi/maps/place/Timhotel+Berthier+Paris+17/@48.894398,2.312611,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x47e66f9878ba126d:0x24a180f7131eebe5 Google Maps]

== Payment ==
The local currency is the Euro. Merchants are forbidden from accepting other currencies (except exchange).

Most venues will accept EMV credit and debit cards (i.e. Chip & PIN), at least VISA and MasterCard. Swipe-only cards can be more tricky (it has been illegal for banks to issue them for years in France, so only foreign visitors use them). American Express is widely but not universally accepted. Diners/Discovery, UnionPay, JCB, etc. are mostly only accepted in shops catering to tourists.

Best change rates are close to the Hotel, Metro Bourse, Vivienne Street.

== Transportation ==

* Public transport: [http://www.ratp.fr/itineraires/en/ratp/recherche-avancee RATP]
* Attendees arrival & departure list: [[VDD15/Attendees]]

'''NOTE''': VideoLAN does not refund taxi expenses nor car rentals.

=== Paris-CDG / Roissy airport ===

'''Important note:''' there are works on the RER B line at night until Friday, included. The RER B service is interrupted between the airport and the Aulnay-sous-Bois station at 11pm. There is a replacement bus available but this incurs a much higher trip time. More information: http://www.transilien.com/contents/fr/Docs---PDF/Travaux/20150720-B-Roissy-2007au3010bis.pdf

[[Image:Paris_Metro_box.jpg|thumb|175px|Ticket vending machines]]

=== Daala hackathon ===
Open to anyone curious about Daala or video coding in general, we can help you write your first patch or teach you things!

To get started you can clone the Daala repository:

<code>
git clone https://github.com/xiph/daala.git
</code>

* How to build and run Daala: https://wiki.xiph.org/Daala_Quickstart
* Demonstrations and explanations of some of the techniques used in Daala: https://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont/demo/
** Note that some of the older demos do not match what is in Daala anymore.
** For more details see https://wiki.xiph.org/Daala#Documents and https://wiki.xiph.org/Daala#Presentations
* Easy bugs to fix: https://github.com/xiph/daala/labels/easy

=== Dinner ===
Around 19:00 at ''Au Metro''.

19 Rue de Malte, 75011 Paris
Metro ''Filles du Calvaire'' or ''Oberkampf''

This dinner is '''not''' sponsored by VideoLAN.

= Practical information =

== Emergency situation ==
In case of emergency, call the European emergency number '''112'''.

== Location / main venue ==
The venue is in Paris (France), 9th district, near St Lazare:

Criteo 
32 rue Blanche 
75009 Paris, France

[https://www.google.fr/maps/place/Criteo/@48.878914,2.3315591,17z/data=!4m6!1m3!3m2!1s0x47e66e04d509ec8f:0xbf35e94464e752f7!2sCriteo!3m1!1s0x47e66e04d509ec8f:0xbf35e94464e752f7 Google Maps]

== Accomodation / Hotel ==
For sponsored participants, the hotel is:

Timhotel Berthier Paris 17 
4 Boulevard Berthier 
75017 Paris, France

http://www.timhotel-berthier-paris-17.com/ 
[https://www.google.fi/maps/place/Timhotel+Berthier+Paris+17/@48.894398,2.312611,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x47e66f9878ba126d:0x24a180f7131eebe5 Google Maps]

== Payment ==
The local currency is the Euro. Merchants are forbidden from accepting other currencies (except exchange).

Most venues will accept EMV credit and debit cards (i.e. Chip & PIN), at least VISA and MasterCard. Swipe-only cards can be more tricky (it has been illegal for banks to issue them for years in France, so only foreign visitors use them). American Express is widely but not universally accepted. Diners/Discovery, UnionPay, JCB, etc. are mostly only accepted in shops catering to tourists.

Best change rates are close to the Hotel, Metro Bourse, Vivienne Street.

== Transportation ==

* Public transport: [http://www.ratp.fr/itineraires/en/ratp/recherche-avancee RATP]
* Attendees arrival & departure list: [[VDD15/Attendees]]

'''NOTE''': VideoLAN does not refund taxi expenses nor car rentals.

=== Paris-CDG / Roissy airport ===

'''Important note:''' there are works on the RER B line at night until Friday, included. The RER B service is interrupted between the airport and the Aulnay-sous-Bois station at 11pm. There is a replacement bus available but this incurs a much higher trip time. More information: http://www.transilien.com/contents/fr/Docs---PDF/Travaux/20150720-B-Roissy-2007au3010bis.pdf

* take the ''RER A'' to '''Marne La Vallée-Chessy'''

'''NB:''' This takes roughly 1 hour 5.

'''NB:''' You should buy your ticket (only one) before entering the Metro.

=== Evening ===
We will meet at a local bar, for drinks (soft and beers), at around 20:00-21:00.

The name will be announced later, when confirmed, but should not be too far from the hotel.

Criteo 
32 rue Blanche 
75009 Paris, France

== Accomodation ==
For sponsored participants, the hotel is:

Timhotel Berthier Paris 17 
4 Boulevard Berthier

== Payment ==
The local currency is the Euro. Merchants are forbidden from accepting other currencies (except exchange).

Most venues will accept EMV credit and debit cards (i.e. Chip & PIN), at least VISA and MasterCard. Swipe-only cards can be more tricky (it has been illegal for banks to issue them for years in France, so only foreign visitors use them). American Express is widely but not universally accepted. Diners/Discovery, UnionPay, JCB, etc. are mostly only accepted in shops catering to tourists.

== Transportation ==

* Public transport: [http://www.ratp.fr/itineraires/en/ratp/recherche-avancee RATP]
* Attendees arrival & departure list: [[VDD15/Attendees]]

'''NOTE''': VideoLAN does not refund taxi expenses nor car rentals.

=== Paris-CDG / Roissy airport ===

* Upon landing, follow the signs for local trains. There is one station for T1/T3 and one for T2 (A-G).
* At the station, look for '''blue/green''' ticket vending machines.
** Do not use the yellow/grey machines (at terminal 2), those are for long distance trains only.
* Buy a ticket for zones 1-5 (to Paris). The cost is 10€ one way. Credit cards are accepted.
* Take the regional express(RER) line B (blue). You can use any train toward Paris.
* Alight at ''Gare du Nord''.
* See also ''Gare du Nord'' below.

* To the sponsored hotel:
** Transfer to subway(M) line 2 toward ''Porte Dauphine''.
** Alight at '''Place de Clichy''' (6 stops)
** Transfer to subway(M) line 13 toward Asnières...
** Get off at '''Porte de Clichy''' (4 stops)

* To the conference venue:
** Transfer to express(RER) line A (red) toward ''Poissy''
** Alight at ''Auber''.
** Walk for 15 minutes.

== Location / main venue ==
The venue is in Paris (France), 9th district, near St Lazare:

Criteo 
32 rue Blanche 
75009 Paris, France

[https://www.google.fr/maps/place/Criteo/@48.878914,2.3315591,17z/data=!4m6!1m3!3m2!1s0x47e66e04d509ec8f:0xbf35e94464e752f7!2sCriteo!3m1!1s0x47e66e04d509ec8f:0xbf35e94464e752f7 Google Maps]

== Accomodation ==
For sponsored participants, the hotel is:

Timhotel Berthier Paris 17

== Payment ==
The local currency is the Euro. Merchants are forbidden from accepting other currencies (except exchange).

Most venues will accept EMV credit and debit cards (i.e. Chip & PIN), at least VISA and MasterCard. Swipe-only cards can be more tricky (it has been illegal for banks to issue them for years in France, so only foreign visitors use them). American Express is widely but not universally accepted. Diners/Discovery, UnionPay, JCB, etc. are mostly only accepted in shops catering to tourists.

== Transportation ==

* Public transport: [http://www.ratp.fr/itineraires/en/ratp/recherche-avancee RATP]
* Attendees arrival & departure list: [[VDD15/Attendees]]

'''NOTE''': VideoLAN does not refund taxi expenses nor car rentals.

=== Paris-CDG / Roissy airport ===

* Upon landing, follow the signs for local trains. There is one station for T1/T3 and one for T2 (A-G).
* At the station, look for '''blue/green''' ticket vending machines.
** Do not use the yellow/grey machines (at terminal 2), those are for long distance trains only.
* Buy a ticket for zones 1-5 (to Paris). The cost is 10€ one way. Credit cards are accepted.
* Take the regional express(RER) line B (blue). You can use any train toward Paris.
* Alight at ''Gare du Nord''.

== Location ==
The meeting is held in [http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Dublin Dublin], [http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Ireland Ireland].

Feel free to use Flameeyes as local point of contact before, during and after the event.

== Emergency situation ==
In case of emergency, call the European emergency number '''112'''. The UK number '''999''' also works.

== Payment ==
Most venues will accept credit and debit cards as long as they are Chip & PIN; American swipe cards can be slightly more tricky but not exceedingly. American Express is barely accepted.

== Accomodation ==

For sponsored participants, there are two different hotels this year. Check your mail to know which one applies to you.

| [http://www.sandymounthotel.ie/en/dublin/directions-map/ Directions]
| [http://www.mespilhotel.com/en/location-dublin/directions/ Directions]
|}
=== Transportation ===
Both hotels can be reached from the airport using the ''Aircoach'' bus service at 8€/one way, 14€/return. For the full list of bus services, [http://www.dublinairport.com/gns/to-from-the-airport/by-bus-or-coach.aspx bus/coach check the airport site].

Regular bus lines like [http://www.dublinbus.ie/en/Your-Journey1/Timetables/All-Timetables/16-/ 16] every 20min for only 2.20 euro

Taxi from the airport is estimated at 30-40€ one way. Tipping (10-20%) is optional but appreciated. If the driver offers to take the ''tunnel'', note that it involves a 3€ surcharge.

We recommend against renting a car as parking in the city can be challenging (and also to many people, driving on the left side of the road).

'''NOTE''': VideoLAN does not refund taxi expenses nor car rentals.

== Main venue ==

[https://www.google.ie/maps/place/Google+Docks/@53.339791,-6.236544,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x48670eeb13a9dd27:0x8c0b7757e533c712 Google Docks], in Barrow Street.

== Connectivity ==

=== Power supply ===

The electrical sockets are "British" '''IEC type G''' with three prongs a.k.a. [http://www.bs1363.org.uk/ BS 1363].

The electrical system is '''220V / 50Hz'''. If you come from the Americas, please make sure your devices are compatible beforehand.

Hotel bathrooms are often an exception, providing 110/220V split sockets, accepting US and Europlug connectors (not grounded). They are marked as "shavers only".

=== Internet ===

At the venue, the '''GoogleGuest''' open WiFi is available at all times.

Most hotels and coffee shops will have available WiFi, but some might require registration.

The airport has a free WiFi network with captive portals.

SIM cards can be freely bought with nothing more than an ID and a card/money.

== Weather ==
Dublin forecast for September 19th is 17°C high and 13°C low with 30% risk of rain and a gentle breeze.

== Proposed VDD sessions ==

=== Saturday ===
==== VLC 2.2 and 3.0 ====
What's left to be done for 2.2? What are our goals for 3.0? What's the time frame for the next major release? How can we avoid to repeat the 2.2 delay?

==== VLC Mobile Remotes ====
There is a major feature missing in VLC's mobile apps, which is currently provided through third party apps. Control VLC remotely running on a desktop. What needs to be done both on client and server-side to provide an advanced and seamless integration between the platforms?

==== VLC Subpicture Framework improvements for hwaccel rendering ====
As of today for picture type subpictures (DVB Subtitles, VBI pages, ...) a software scale step is forced into the pipeline. To make better use of hardware being able to render scaled overlays this shall be omitted. But it seems some significant changes in the VLC core are required to support this in a common way, which some brainstorming on would be required.

==== Android ====

==== iOS ====

==== WinRT ====

==== libav/FFmpeg discussion ====
Better understanding leads to better cooperation.

=== Sunday ===

==== Libav 12 and 13 ====
Roadmap, [http://wiki.libav.org/Blueprint Blueprints] and so on.

==== Libav whining ====
You have complaints: do voice them! (we will listen and will address them)

==== Libav infrastructure discussion ====
Bugzilla customizations, gitlab, gogs, plaid, and other tools to make our life easier by making some admin life miserable.

==== Road towards HWAccel 2 ====
During this year we moved two steps towards version [[https://wiki.libav.org/Blueprint/HWAccel2 2]]:

* 1.2 -> default context allocators
* 1.3 -> bitstream-oriented hwaccel support

During this session we will discuss about how to provide an
uniform structure to avoid even more boilerplate code and still
allow full control to the people needing it.

==== ChromeCast ====
How do we achieve VLC using Chromecast?

==== Media Library ====
Current state and conception of needed functionality for a cross-platform library to collect meta data, thumbnails and so on for use within media handling applications based on libvlc. Written in C++.

==== EBU-TT-D ====
integration in VLC and/or ffmpeg ?

==== x264 meeting ====

==== Opus in MP4 ====
We should sit down and design this mapping.

==== Binary Album Art extensions for Ogg ====
We've had a proposal to include binary (not base64-encoded) album art for Ogg in the context of Ogg Opus: <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/codec/current/msg03061.html>.
This session would determine if there is interest from players in supporting such an extension and working on the design.

==== Testing ====
Seems like everybody is doing the same very flaky or very manual thing when testing video processing and player software. Can we do better?
:like a fate suite of tests for players? Maybe with an scriptable mouse click? Assuming your player can be launched in a set coordinates.

==== Broadcasting things ====
An attempt to justify what broadcasters are doing.

==== arm64 / AArch64 ====
CPU specific optimizions for iOS devices, upcoming android devices, arm based servers

==== The bare basics of special relativity ====
An brief introduction to the basic concepts and consequences of special relativity.

==== Chocolate ====

Chocolate orders delivery

==== Daala ====
Open to anyone curious about Daala, and if you want to win a T-shirt we'll help you write your first patches! See also https://wiki.xiph.org/Daala_Quickstart

==== Wayland ====
Principles, challenges, progress and way forward with multimedia on Wayland

== Proposed VDD sessions ==

=== Saturday ===
==== VLC 2.2 and 3.0 ====
What's left to be done for 2.2? What are our goals for 3.0? What's the time frame for the next major release? How can we avoid to repeat the 2.2 delay?

==== VLC Mobile Remotes ====
There is a major feature missing in VLC's mobile apps, which is currently provided through third party apps. Control VLC remotely running on a desktop. What needs to be done both on client and server-side to provide an advanced and seamless integration between the platforms?

==== VLC Subpicture Framework improvements for hwaccel rendering ====
As of today for picture type subpictures (DVB Subtitles, VBI pages, ...) a software scale step is forced into the pipeline. To make better use of hardware being able to render scaled overlays this shall be omitted. But it seems some significant changes in the VLC core are required to support this in a common way, which some brainstorming on would be required.

==== Android ====

==== iOS ====

==== WinRT ====

==== libav/FFmpeg discussion ====
Better understanding leads to better cooperation.

=== Sunday ===
==== Road towards HWAccel 2 ====
During this year we moved two steps towards version [[https://wiki.libav.org/Blueprint/HWAccel2 2]]:

* 1.2 -> default context allocators
* 1.3 -> bitstream-oriented hwaccel support

During this session we will discuss about how to provide an
uniform structure to avoid even more boilerplate code and still
allow full control to the people needing it.

==== ChromeCast ====
How do we achieve VLC using Chromecast?

==== Media Library ====
Current state and conception of needed functionality for a cross-platform library to collect meta data, thumbnails and so on for use within media handling applications based on libvlc. Written in C++.

==== EBU-TT-D ====
integration in VLC and/or ffmpeg ?

==== x264 meeting ====

==== Opus in MP4 ====
We should sit down and design this mapping.

==== Binary Album Art extensions for Ogg ====
We've had a proposal to include binary (not base64-encoded) album art for Ogg in the context of Ogg Opus: <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/codec/current/msg03061.html>.
This session would determine if there is interest from players in supporting such an extension and working on the design.

==== Testing ====
Seems like everybody is doing the same very flaky or very manual thing when testing video processing and player software. Can we do better?
:like a fate suite of tests for players? Maybe with an scriptable mouse click? Assuming your player can be launched in a set coordinates.

==== Broadcasting things ====
An attempt to justify what broadcasters are doing.

==== arm64 / AArch64 ====
CPU specific optimizions for iOS devices, upcoming android devices, arm based servers

__NOTOC__

'''The Multimedia Conference that frees the cone in you!'''

This is a technical un-conference, please bring laptops, cords, RJ45 cables and a good mood with you.

=== Note well ===
* If you expect [[VideoLAN]] to refund your travel, please bring a printed copy of your tickets including total cost.
** If you are not already in our reimbursement database, please bring a printed [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBAN IBAN statement] too.

= Practical information =

The meeting is held in [http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Dublin Dublin], [http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Ireland Ireland].

Feel free to use Flameeyes as local point of contact before, during and after the event.

== Payment ==
Most venues will accept credit and debit cards as long as they are Chip & PIN; American swipe cards can be slightly more tricky but not exceedingly. American Express is barely accepted.

== Airport transfer ==

There are two main options to get from Dublin Airport to Dublin city centre: [http://www.dublinairport.com/gns/to-from-the-airport/by-bus-or-coach.aspx bus/coach] or cabs.

(NOTE: VideoLAN does not refund taxi expenses, and of course nor car rental.)

=== Bus ===
The AirLink costs around 6 euros per person.

=== Taxi ===
A trip to the city centre by cab takes around 26 euros (a 10%-to-20% tip is usually welcome but not necessary). Most cabs fits three people comfortably (one in front, two in the back) or four squeezing, and cabs for five or more people are well available (even at the airport). So if you can sync up in groups you can get to the city centre pretty quickly (around 20 minutes).

If the driver asks you whether to take the tunnel, it's a 3 euro charge, but it might save you money if there's lots of traffic.

=== Rental car ===
If you plan on visiting outside Dublin you may consider renting a car, but it might be easier to do so from the city centre rather than from the airport, as there's very little parking available (and you don't need a car in the centre).

== Hotel ==

T.B.D.

== Main venue ==

[https://www.google.ie/maps/place/Google+Docks/@53.339791,-6.236544,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x48670eeb13a9dd27:0x8c0b7757e533c712 Google Docks], in Barrow Street.

== Connectivity ==

=== Power supply ===

The electrical sockets are "British" '''IEC type G''' with three prongs a.k.a. [http://www.bs1363.org.uk/ BS 1363].

The electrical system is '''220V / 50Hz'''. If you come from the Americas, please make sure your devices are compatible beforehand.

Hotel bathrooms are often an exception, providing 110/220V split sockets, accepting US and Europlug connectors (not grounded). They are marked as "shavers only".

=== Internet ===

At the venue, the '''GoogleGuest''' open WiFi is available at all time.

Most hotels and coffee shops will have available WiFi, but some might require registration.

The airport has a free WiFi network with captive portals.

SIM cards can be freely bought with nothing more than an ID and a card/money.

== Weather ==
Dublin forecast for September 19th is 61F / 16C high and 49F / 9C low. Remi says to expect rain.

== Emergency situation ==

In case of emergency, call the European emergency number '''112'''. The UK number '''999''' also works.

Talk:SoC 2007

2007-04-19T16:02:58Z

Compn: /* General talk */

== Questions ==

== General talk ==

=== Cache and GUI interface ===
This project may need to redesign a bit the cache handling module access. (How is this "Interface" related ? I agree that we might need to change the caching algorithms for web-content, but it's definitively not interface (nor web plugin) related. [[User:Dionoea|Dionoea]] 16:17, 8 March 2007 (CET))
: Because VLC caches in seconds and Youtube are just caching the most they can to have the whole file local.

=== MKV muxer ===
From the VLC point of view i don't agree. It would be easier to integrate the muxer directly into VLC than put it in libavformat and then change the libavformat <-> VLC interface to use it. I'm not sure how the chapter / menu / subs system works in MKV but it sure will add complexitiy to or libavformat interface (and some lagg time between the time the mkv muxer makes it into ffmpeg and the time we make it work in VLC). -- [[User:Dionoea|Dionoea]] 16:25, 8 March 2007 (CET)
:Note that the ffmpeg project already has this listed on their [http://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php?title=Summer_Of_Code_2007 SOC page.]

=== DirectX improvements ===

HD1080 streams (for instance MPEG4-AVC) push the best current machines at their limit. Usage of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DXVA could help to leverage any GPU capabilities and accelerate the rendering (delegation of part of the process to the GPU depending on GPU capabilities & driver implementation). Actually, hardware manufacturers such as ATI (h264 DxVA) or NVidia (PureVideo) have already provided such implementation and some other players have already integrated DXVA.

=== Subtitles ===

is it possible to play two subtitles at once? or at least, can this be optionally added when the new subtitle code comes in ? :) --[[User:Compn|Compn]] 18:02, 19 April 2007 (CEST)
