Kate is a free codec for text based data, which can also carry images.
It is typically used to create overlays on a video.
libkate, a codec for Kate streams, is required to build this plugin:
http://libkate.googlecode.com/
libtiger, a rendering library for Kate streams, is optional:
http://libtiger.googlecode.com/
The Kate plugin contains various elements to manipulate Kate streams:
- katedec: decodes Kate streams to text and SPU images
- kateenc: encodes Kate streams from text and SPU images
- kateparse: parses Kate streams
- katetag: allows changing metadata in Kate streams
- tiger: decodes and renders Kate streams using libtiger (needs libtiger)
