[vlc-devel] [Linux] Source code example of an intra-frame video codec? Where does it fit in VLC?

[Ed Sutton]

Hi Jean-Baptiste,

Thank you very much for the codec links! I think that is exactly what I needed at this point.  If my GIT VLC ever gets done, I can't wait to try and build VLC under Red Hat 5.2 and see if I can debug into the codec.

Comparing the PNG and MPEG2 sources gives me the rough idea.  DecodeBlock is the interface to call the JPEG2000 image decoder. 

I do not expect it to be easy - I will need to sync up with the multi-cast video and start the frame by frame buffer and decoding.  Hopefully with the MPEG2 example, I can figure out the requirements to implement the same in motion JPEG 2000 (MJ2).

Thanks again!

-Ed

What about looking at the png codec in VLC:
http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc.git;a=blob;f=modules/codec/png.c;
or mpeg2:
http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc.git;a=blob;f=modules/codec/libmpeg2.c;
?
