Hi,
I'm not sure you can detect the type of frame without to actually
*decode* it (but you can still check if the frame is a key frame by
reading the flags in the AVPacket).
For example:
/* decode the data from the packet and put the resulting picture in picture)
ret = avcodec_decode_video(ist->st->codec, &picture, &got_frame, pkt_data_ptr, pkt_data_len);
if (ret < 0)
break;
if (got_picture && picture.pict_type == B_TYPE) {
...
} else {
...
}
By the way: this is a question more for ffmpeg-user than for ffmpeg-devel.
Regards.
