Re: [FFmpeg-devel] GSoC '15 Introduction
Hello, This is my first qualification task submit for the *d**irectshow digital video capture *project. In this http://i.imgur.com/zd47rP3.png link there is my screenshot proving that I successfully made a filter graph using graphstudionext that captures the video stream from a webcam and show it on the screen . I am now working on the second part of the qual task, which is adding an IPersistStream option to and from file for the dshow code base for video module. Roger Pack, thanks a lot for helping me out with this, your feedback has been very useful!

Just don't copy and paste, since the VLC stuff [at least] is straight GPL and we'll need this one to be LGPL [so basically base it off of the MSDN not off the VLC code base, that's what I do].

Re: [FFmpeg-devel] GSoC '15 Introduction
Thank you very much for your kind replies and advices compn, Timo and Roger. I am at the very beginning of the journey , I've never worked with Dshow before but I'm very excited to learn and develop. I will look through all the materials given and start doing stuff as soon as possible.

[FFmpeg-devel] GSoC '15 Introduction
Hello! Short description: Full name : Andrei Ilinca IRC Handle: andrei_il / andrei__il Studies: Second year student at the Faculty of Automatic Control and Computer Science at the Polytechnic Univ of Bucharest Github: https://github.com/ailinca I'll try to divide my introduction mail into two main parts: Background, why FFmpeg and why directshow digital video capture project. *Background* I'm Andrei, I'm a second year student at the Faculty of Automatic Control and Computer Science at the Polytechnic Univ of Bucharest. This GSoC is my first opportunity to work with the open source community and I can say I'm thrilled! I have experience working with C and I enjoy coding using this language.C was my language of choice both for academic purposes and for coding challenges like talentbuddy https://www.talentbuddy.co and codingame http://www.codingame.com. Currently, I m exploring other areas as well, such as developing a standalone Java app that tracks how you spend money or some simple game in C++ and Qt. While programming is my carrer choice, math was always my passion. Since Primary School I attended contests and got rewarded Localy ,CityWide and National. I enjoy solving various smart mathematical problems with applications in all areas of research. * Why FFmpeg?* Why FFmpeg? Honestly, I did not start looking for a project on this GSoC having the fixed FFmpeg org in mind, I was just looking for a C project. Because there are plenty orgs, with plenty projects and it's difficult to choose one, having no previous experience. On short, I landed on your project page more or less randomly. But I stayed. And here's why. FFmpeg development involves something that I've always considered interesting and that is encoding/decoding information. While I was on your website, I asked myself how is voice converted to digital, how does it happen, which lead me to this http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/gadgets/high-tech-gadgets/speech-recognition1.html . All in all, I find all this interesting, a lot of new notions to me, but it's definetly somnething I would see myself enjoying working on throughout the summer. *Why directshow digital video capture ?* Simply because It sounds really interesting and entertaining.

How should I proceed further? I'll be around on IRC quite a lot, but I'll get in touch more once I start working on something. If you have any feedback or criticism, please do, it's appreciated! Sorry for the long-ish mail! It really seems like an interesting project and something I'm very enthusiastic about. Regards, Andrei Hello!
