- Download the latest version of WinCVS from http://www.cvsgui.org.
Install it. (Instructions confirmed with version 1.3 beta 6.)
- Download the latest windows setup program from http://sfsetup.sourceforge.net/
and unpack it. (Instructions confirmed with version 1.3.)
- Run sfsetup.exe... It may give you a WinCVS error. That`s OK. Have
it set up ssh and the DScaler project. Make sure you specify your sourceforge
username, the project as "deinterlace", the home directory
as the directory in which you installed ssh, and the checkout directory
as the directory where you want to save the DScaler code on your local
machine.
NOTICE TO WINDOWS 2000 USERS -- Before running make sure your C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
exists and is writable (and not hidden, not system). It cannot be blank
- it must have at least one line of text in it. If it is 0 bytes, add
an "@echo off" line to it, followed by an Enter.
NOTICE TO WINDOWS 95/98/ME USERS -- After running sfsetup, reboot the
computer to load the new AUTOEXEC.BAT settings.
- Run WinCVS.
- Choose Create-Checkout Module. The modules available in the Deinterlace
project include:
a) DScaler -- the main DScaler application, including hardware drivers,
help files, and skins;
b) DSRend -- the DScaler renderer filter necessary for native DirectShow
support in the DScaler application;
c) deinterlace -- the experimental DirectShow wrapper; and
d) htdocs -- the web site.
NB: the htdocs module includes copies of many help files in the DScaler
module. If you make corrections on any of these files, please check
in the changes in both places.
- Click OK. After a couple of seconds a minimized ssh DOS window will
appear. Maximize the window. It MAY be blank, it MAY say "Password:";
Enter your password even if the DOS window is completely blank without
the "Password:" prompt. There will be no echo. Just type your password
and then hit Enter.
NB: Upon running for the first time, the DOS window will mention that
a random seed is being generated for the Sourceforge site. Again, you
may not be prompted for your password, but you will need to enter it
anyway.
- WinCVS should now be checking out the code.
- For those who will be making edits to the code, you can do so with
impunity. Make your edits and submit them to the CVS by first selecting
the file. Choose Modify-Update Selection from the menu. This merges
your local changes with the CVS code. Next, choose Modify-Commit Selection.
This will make the changes in the CVS. After each step, you will be
presented with the DOS window discussed in #6, above.
