Thanks Reimar for the advise. Getting the completed Dirac decoder integrated to the ffmpeg codebase will entail as the qualifying task ? And the encoder will constitute the GSoC itself ? I saw details of the previous years project in here : http://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php?title=Dirac_Encoder_AND_Decoder If it is acceptable , I would be more than happy to try the qualifying task. That said, can someone please tell me what needs to be done ? What is meant by getting it integrated ?
