[xine-devel] [PATCH]_Count_preview_frames_separately_for_all_audio_and_video_streams

[Torsten J. <t....@gm...>]

Hello Petri!

Thank you for being the only *developer* (not user) so far that
actually looks at my code!

Interesting idea.
BTW. I have a backwards compatible reordered dts/pts support which both
my "new" demuxers use. Thats where I know what Im doing. Nice smooth
playback of some previously problematic files.
Maybe I should post this timestamp thing first?

I am a big FLV fan. A simple format, reduced to the core. Use it for
editing and archiving TV recordings.
That RM thing is mainly legacy plus the challenge of making it work with
*all* weird oddities I found. For one of which I still need help.
There are some files with mpeg4/generic content but streams named
"Hinted audio/video track". I tried some common mp4 hinting schemes but
this here is definitely something different (first byte of frame always
0x20 or 0x21).

Most of them are no longer available in the net (fetched years ago).

OK but what is the point of using LATM then for those broadcasters?

I dont insist there. Just wanted to point out a possible issue.

Very dangerous (see Chris Rankin's mail) :-/

Thanks. I cannot stress the internet cafe daily though.

Will look at it right after posting this (pre-written offline at home).
