Hello everybody, I have an libavcodec/format based application to write video data to an output file. This is working nicely; however, I'd also like to be able to put additional data packets (containing e.g., 3D position data) into the output stream using CODEC_TYPE_DATA. I suppose normal players would ignore these packets, while a specially adapted decoder could get the data back out. I've done some experiments with AVI files, and the AVI file does indeed get a 'dats' chunk in the header.. but my data doesn't show up anywhere in the file.
I suppose the problem is that I don't have the correct codec. I tried CODEC_ID_RAWVIDEO (probably a dumb idea), but I couldn't find anything else that would fit. Can somebody please give me a hint on how to embed non-AV data in the final stream? Many thanks, Yours, Florian -- 0666 - Filemode of the Beast _______________________________________________ libav-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mplayerhq.hu/mailman/listinfo/libav-user
