Hi, I have problems decoding h264 video chunks included in a Mp4 video.
As far as I know nal units start with 0x000001 identifier. So I manage
to parse mp4 video, spot the video chunks, re-parse the chunks to find
nal unit identifier, then I reassemble the chunks and, finally, send the
nal units to av_decode_video. In the code below, the nal unit buffer is
tm_buf->buffer, its length is tm_buf->buf_len
...
AVPacket *avpack = &packet ;
avpack->side_data = NULL;
avpack->side_data_elems = 0;
avpack->data = tm_buf->buffer;
avpack->size = tm_buf->buf_len;
AVFrame *decoded_frame = NULL;
if (!decoded_frame)
{
if (!(decoded_frame = avcodec_alloc_frame()))
{
fprintf(stderr, "Could not allocate audio frame\n");
exit(1);
}
}
else
avcodec_get_frame_defaults(decoded_frame);
len = avcodec_decode_video2( context, decoded_frame, &got_picture,
avpack ) ;
Unfortunately the output window remains black.
I do not use av_read_frame to read from the file, because I want to
rewrite the demuxer (as a matter of fact I already have). My knowledge
of h264 is very poor, but why doesn't libav manage to decode the chunks.
In addition, I don't seem to get any error message. Is there a way to
solve all this without having to study all the stuff about h264?
