Hi all,
The upstream theora project is alas moribund. I propose therefore that vtkOggTheoraWriter be deprecated:
https://gitlab.kitware.com/vtk/vtk/-/merge_requests/10048
In the MR, reviewers suggested that I bring it up here on discourse too to get wider attention.
Cheers,
Sean
Note that without this, the PyPI wheels will have no way to save movies (other than on Windows).
libvpx may be a potential open-source replacement. It can write .webm video files - playable by vlc, firefox, chrome and safari
If vtkOggTheoraWriter gets deprecated, I would need to backport for use with PyPi on linux. I hope you find a good alternative before deprecating it
