CoreAVC-for-Ubuntu

IMPORTANT:
Using coreavc with these builds is completely optional. In fact, the mplayer2 + static libav built here is so good, that using CoreAVC is probably unnecessary.

--------------------------------------

This PPA is to make setting up and installing coravc-for-linux easier.

--- How to Setup CoreAVC in Ubuntu ---

1. Install CoreAVC using Wine. This guide should work up to version 2.0.

2. Install the dshowserver and mplayer package supplied by this PPA.

3. Copy the codec to /usr/share/dshowserver so that dshowserver.exe can use it.

sudo cp "$HOME/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/CoreAVC Pro/CoreAVCDecoder.ax" /usr/share/dshowserver/

4. Add "-vc coreserve," to mplayer to tell it to try and use coreavc if it can.

5. Watch your favorite HD videos fast and with high quality in Linux!
