That's a bit too many qualifiers for my taste. With current code, discard means this: * discard=1: stream is not processed in any way * discard=0: stream is processed If you want to add more possible states, do so explicitly. That is probably best achieved by changing it to a mask (called something like 'used'), with values like USED_DIRECT and USED_LCEVC (I'm not convinced it is useful to introduce generic notions like "streamgroup bistream filters" until there is more than one user for them). > > Furthermore, I really dislike how invasive such an obscure feature is. > > Ideally, lavf would export the LCEVC stream payload as packet side data > in the video's stream, but that's apparently only possible with mov/mp4 > and maybe matroska, not TS.

You are introducing a bunch of new core concepts that do not apply to anything except LCEVC, and rewriting a lot of core demuxing code around them. So yes, that looks invasive to me. -- Anton Khirnov _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
