[gst-devel] Karaoke and GStreamer

[Christian Fredrik Kalager Schaller]

hi people,
Based on the discussions we had during GUADEC I decided to look into
Karaoke and what it would take to support it. It seems Karaoke comes in
two formats. One is DVD which seems to work with any DVD player. The
second is based on a semi-standard called CD+G which is an extension to
CD Audio standard.

Here are some interesting links:

Some general overview type information on CD+G

Unofficial CD text FAQ:

Technical info and some code for CD+G support:

Some free windows software with source for CD+G (unsure about license)

http://sourceforge.net/projects/cdgproj/ 

A free beer windows CD+G player:

If anyone is willing to hack on this I can sponsor you with the cost of
buying a couple of cd+g cd's
