[FFmpeg-devel] A53 Closed Captions in mpeg2video

2016-01-06 Thread Zach Swena
Hi, What is the current status of closed captions for mpeg2 video outputs? I know caption pass through is supposed to work for libx264, but most ATSC broadcast is still in mpeg2. Do we have any timeline on when this part will be done yet? Zach ___ ffm

ecause the transmission rate would change with each pcr. This would also reduce network storms induced by the heavy packet flow of bursty multicast streams. Zach On Thu, Nov 19, 2015 at 8:32 AM, Kieran Kunhya wrote: > On 19 November 2015 at 16:15, Zach Swena > wrote: > >> How have yo

Hi Pavel, I can confirm that there is a problem with the UDP packet engine in FFmpeg. FFmpeg has excessive jitter in it's UDP streaming output to the point where hardware decoders can't handle it. My solution was to buffer to disk and have my own program read and send the datagrams via a very ti

[FFmpeg-devel] Overlay documentation does not mention pixel aspect ratio.

2015-11-08 Thread Zach Swena
Hi, I would like to propose a change to the documentation for the overlay filter. The overlay filter does not detect pixel aspect ratio. This causes improper display resolution when overlaying smaller images on a larger image. A common example of this would be overlaying an SD source on an HD o

Re: [FFmpeg-devel] Default dynamic range compression on AC3

2015-03-26 Thread Zach Swena
Something to keep in mind, AC3 is a broadcast format, so it makes sense to have range compression built in because many listeners are viewing on TV sets with limited range capabilities. I wasn't aware of this option, but will probably end up using it for a program I am making. I don't care about

Hi, Here is a patch to allow FFmpeg to use PID ranges compatible with ATSC television. I based the new minimum value on the PID ranges here on wikipedia. This should be sufficient to allow the use of any standard PID used in ATSC television. Z
