[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] H.264/AVCHD interlaced fixes

[Ivan Schreter]

Hi David,

thanks for the feedback.

Michael indicated that the patch should be split into smaller chunks (in 
the other mail to this topic). As my daughter (first child) was born 
yesterday, I don't see much chances to do it in the next time, but 
supporting of interlaced videos in the upcoming FFmpeg release is IMHO a 
very important thing in order to support new camcorders and HD videos in 
general (like your HD-PVR).

Therefore, I'd like to ask you, if it were OK for you to split the 
current patch into smaller units (one for replacing literals by names, 
one adding decoding of SEI recovery point in h264 decoder, one adding 
functionality to h264 decoder to continue decoding of the buffer, if 
more data available, and one adding NAL unit decoding in the 
h264_parser) and submit them to the list for review one by one.

Thanks & regards,

Ivan
