Release of Advene 1.0

Written for Advene by Olivier Aubert on 2011-12-22

Version 1.0 of the Advene software has been released! Merry Christmas (for those who celebrate it).

This release marks the end of a series that has been stable for a long time, but never got its deserved major release number. This version now enters a maintenance state, while development focuses on the next major version (new data model, interface revamp to handle simultaneous analysis of multiple video files...).

This release integrates an interface to the pocketsphinx speech recognition software. Annotations can now be modified either from the timeline inspector, or from table views (in addition to previous interfaces). A summarized change list can be found in the changelog: http://svn.gna.org/viewcvs/advene/tags/1.0/CHANGES.txt?view=markup

About Advene: the cross-platform Advene application allows users to easily create comments and analyses about video documents, through the definition of time-aligned annotations and their mobilisation into automatically-generated or user-written comment views (HTML documents). Annotations can also be used to modify the rendition of the audiovisual document, thus providing virtual montage, captioning, navigation... capabilities. Users can exchange their comments/analyses in the form of Advene packages, independently from the video itself. You can find more information (application, screenshots, screencasts...) on the Advene website http://www.advene.org/

Data can be imported from the following formats: text, SRT subtitles, ELAN, PRAAT, CMML, IRI, Anvil, MPEG7 (FreeTextAnnotations only), Xi, AnnotationGraph, shotdetect, lsdvd

Data can be exported to the following formats: SMIL, SVG, HTML+CSS, SRT subtitles, spreadsheet, CMML, TimedText
