<p class=MsoBodyText><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>Hi VideoLan developers, I am working on a
project that involves using VLC to demonstrate the functionality of a
proprietary video encoder/server. The server uses hardware encoding of
RGB and NTSC inputs and streams them out to another proprietary player running
under windows using the Pegasus decoder. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoBodyText><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>This new customer wants this to work with Linux and
VLC. The good news is that VLC plays both the mjpeg streams well, however
the RGB stream plays with incorrect colors. I have been working to resolve
this through adjusting our JPEG header on this image and I have had no
luck. The windows player has correct color. VLC is using the ffmpeg
library to decode the stream and I now have built both VLC and FFMPEG and I can
make code changes to try and fix the color problem, however nothing that I have
tried has worked. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoBodyText><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>I am hoping one of the smart VLC developers would be
able to help me look into fixing this issue, which probably resides in the
FFMPEG lib. I can provide a sample .avi file that I made with ffmpeg for
testing purposes if someone is willing to help look into this. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoBodyText><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>I think this is a good opportunity to advance the
player and I am willing and able to help as much as possible. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoBodyText><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>If anyone has an interest in fixing the decode of this
RGB mjpeg stream I would be glad to know.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
