Video Scanner.
omvs scans all multicast ip addresses the user specifies and if omvs finds

something, omvs tries to decode it with gstreamer and saves it as png file in
the output directory. There are many cases omvs finds something but png file is
not stored. Such as, the video is scrambled(encrypted, not free), multicasting
data doesn't contain video(audio only, data only), gstreamer doesn't recognize
it(unknown codec), etc. If you increase the number of jobs with "-j" command
line option, you can scan faster. However, You need take caution, because it
can cause network congestion.
As omvs uses libpcap to capture raw packet, root privilege is required to run
omvs.
Run "./configure ; make" to build omvs. Run "./omvs" with scanning multicast ip
addresses.
