[Libav-user] Converting YUV 2 MPEG4

[muratc15-ffmpeg at yahoo.de]

Hello boys and girls,

I want to convert a YUV signal from my POE-camera into a MPEG4 stream, for which I have used the libavcodec.lib  library of yours.

I am confused with the file-format headers for the target video file. For an instance :
out_size = avcodec_encode_video(c, outbuf, outbuf_size,
outpic);
Is there no mpeg4 specific file format header required, in the beginning of the video file? Or is the library function handling this internally?

Cheers Murat
