Re: [FFmpeg-devel] IRC meeting summary for Outeachy Fundraising (Item No.5)

2015-09-13 Thread Ngassa Finjap
Hi Yayoi,

Thank you for writing a summary of the IRC Meeting which took place
yesterday regarding the upcoming Outreachy program. Yaaay! ^_^ [ Sadness
levels drop. ]

IMHO, It's fine leaving discussions concerning Outreachy on this mailing
list since it also concerns development of FFmpeg. Please continue to keep
the community informed on upcoming Outreachy meetings on IRC as you've
always done. :)

Best of luck with Outreachy Organization.

Regards,
Ngassa Amalia.

[FFmpeg-devel] Help with writing an RMS-LMS decoder

2014-10-20 Thread Ngassa Finjap
Hello,

I am Ngassa Amalia (amalia on irc), an student interested in
contributin to the ffmpeg project unde the OPW program.I have already
created an account on githug(@Ngassa) and compiled ffmpeg from source.
I have been asked to write an RMS-LMS decoder before Wednesday and I
don't have a faint idea how to go about it. Please can anyone give me
tips on how to go about this qualification task ? I am really flying
blind here :(

Cheers
Ngassa Amalia

 I see this has somewhat been awnsered on IRC
 maybe thilo can elabrate on this, though I do not think its possible
 to write such decoder in the remaining time before Wednesday unless
 one knows what to do already and is quick.


I did a git grep and found ffmpeg/libavcodec/alsdec.c. I am trying to see
this ALS decoder is different from the RLS-LMS decoder.


 If you havnt started yet to work on ALS  then maybe you want to try
 to work on some other project ?
 You can also propose things not listed on our wiki including non
 coding tasks.


Is there any non-coding task I can propose like an untidy codebase that
needs documentation  ? Would be glad to have some pointers ?


 Thanks

  if you dont know the difference between LPC and RLS-LMS
  maybe ftp://cs.uef.fi/franti/papers/RLS-LMS_TIP2008.pdf
  could help. But note iam no ALS expert, thilo knows all this better

 I don't think it matters anymore since you will most likely not be able to
 finish work on that.
