It turns out I found some more information on using FFMPEG with OpenH264. It
may not be relevant, but I thought I'd post it here. It reads:
Turns out that much/most of the control over quality-related parameters lies in
the codec-specific "private" dictionary. For example: AVCodecContext *c =
<your context>;
av_opt_set(c->priv_data, "profile", "baseline", AV_OPT_SEARCH_CHILDREN);
av_opt_set(c->priv_data, "level", "3.0", AV_OPT_SEARCH_CHILDREN);
av_opt_set(c->priv_data, "preset", "slow", AV_OPT_SEARCH_CHILDREN);
av_opt_set(c->priv_data, "crf", "18", AV_OPT_SEARCH_CHILDREN);
Judicious tweaking of these (and other) params gets me the control over quality
I was searching for. This then brings up the question: can anybody suggest
which private parameters I could/should try to improve the quality of an
OpenH264/MP4 video? Preferably, parameters and possible options to try; I will
be happy to try the combinations and report back.Thanks.-Arthur
