Any chance of a Windows version ?

Hi,

actually dvbackup is straight ANSI C which should compile
under windows. (If I accidently used some GCC-extensions you
might want to
try the GCC port for windows.) Unfortunately I do not have
any experience
with windows. So you are on your own.

hello Peter

I tried to compile it using the DJGPP package which
includes GCC for DOS but I'm missing the zlib.h and popt.h.

I guess functions like adler32 are in those libs and I
wasnt able to find Win32 equivalent libs.

I will look further to see if I can find a replacement.

Thanks for replying anyways

Regards,
Alvaro.

Hi,

You most likely should use cygwin I presume.

But nevertheless: This program generates RAW DV data and I
don't know
if any windows DV application wants to transmit those
directly. (It would
be possible to generate DV AVIs, but then you would get a
really disturbing audio track on your tape... (I use some
header flags to disable
audio, but this most likely can't be done with AVIs.)

Probably your best bet is to install a small Linux system to
do the backup. (Would probably fit on one floppy disk.)

Greetings,
Peter

I've already made it work in windows. The project can be
compile in MS C++ 6.0. So if Peter and Guido want, I can
send them the changes that I made. May be they did that
changes already. I've already made saving to avi files work but
I haven't tested to see if the files can be transferred to dv
camera and restored back. When I open that the avi file in
virtualdub, it reported that the file only have video. I played it
back using windows media player and could here no sound at
all.
