Hi,
I managed to write a H.264 annex B muxer (from a compression board) in mp4
using libavformat.
If I don’t specify extradata as bellow, the generated MP4 stream appears to
be corrupted and won’t play in quicktime.
pMux_ctx->video_st = NULL;
if ( pMux_ctx->fmt->video_codec != CODEC_ID_NONE )
{
AVCodecContext * c;
pMux_ctx->video_st = av_new_stream (pMux_ctx->oc , 0);
if (! pMux_ctx->video_st)
{
fprintf( stderr, "Could not alloc
video_stream\n" );
exit(1);
}
c = pMux_ctx->video_st->codec;
…
c->extradata = buffer;
c->extradata_size = size;
…
}
This all works fine but I just don’t understand why the muxer needs the
extradata since all necessary metadata have already been set through
AVCodecContext.
I would like to simplify the code and avoid computing extradata in advance
(saving thus 600 lines of code).
Thanks, Malikcis
