XCF file format

Hi,
After googling and watching the ML archives, I was looking for a documentation of the XCF file format. I begun an XCF loader (for a later use in mplayer), but I lack clear docs, as source code is a bit rusty to read like that :) So if someone has this ...

Thanks a lot

You might have already read the earlier discussions about this subject then.

Why would a movie player like mplayer want to use a file format which is considered to be used-by-The-GIMP-only?

Salut, Sven

easily converting a xcf "animation" file to anything readable by mplayer (using mencoder).
And apart from that, writing a sort of libxcf , for my personnal and anyone_who_want use.

There is no such thing as an xcf animation file... If you're talking about that animation support involving multiple files, you can simply batch convert them to PNG using // and then probably encode them to anything you want.

I think he might mean multi-layered XCF files. Like how we represent multi-frame GIFs.
