[x264-devel] Slices in x264

[List, Peter]

Hello everyone,

 

I am new to this group although experienced with H.264. I tried to use
the x264 encoder to prepare sequences for an error-resilience test. 

I was very surprised, when I discovered, that x264 CAN NOT produce
slices! Slices are the basic tool to cope with packet-losses over
IP-based networks (without retransmission), and in fact can make a huge
difference for subjective quality, in particular at high loss-rates. 

 

Did I miss something here, or is it true that x264 can only produce 1
slice per frame???

 

Regards

                         Peter List
