I'm nor sure any more but y4mscaler was programmed by Matthew Marjanovic. He did a lot for the mjpegtools project but he did never put y4mscaler into the mjpegtools project. So I/we did never distribute the y4mscaler with the mjpegtools or include it to the CVS. > Did the ppmtoy4m '-S option' improve so that y4mscaler is no longer > necessary? unlikely ;) > Is there another reason? If you mean not including y4mscaler. I think the program is a projects close to the mjpegtools. And is not included like a other tools people wrote you find on the mjpeg.sf.net > I ask because I am having compile problems with y4mscaler. Sigh..... > I should really learn what I am doing shouldn't I? If it is just a compiling problem you can post the steps you have done on this mailinglist.
