OpenQuicktime aims to be a portable library for handling Apple's
|
||
|
|
QuickTime (TM) popular media files on Unix-like environments. This
|
||
|
|
project was firstly designed to allow the porting of the 3ivx codec
|
||
|
|
on any Unix, but is now a completly separate and fully Open Source
|
||
|
|
project. Details:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o OpenQuicktime library contains no embedded codecs but has a plugin
|
||
|
|
system to dynamically load audio and video codecs.
|
||
|
|
o OpenQuicktime contains no colorspace conversion algorithm.
|
||
|
|
o OpenQuicktime is fully portable and fully configurable with all
|
||
|
|
the autoconfigure and automake magic we have been able to add.
|
||
|
|
o OpenQuicktime supports compressed headers (decoding only for the
|
||
|
|
moment).
|
||
|
|
o OpenQuicktime supports Quicktime Sound System version 2.
|
||
|
|
o OpenQuicktime can support any inputs and outputs (file, HTTP,
|
||
|
|
FTP, RTP, ...), in fact the functions used to read, write and
|
||
|
|
seek are overloadable.
|
||
|
|
o OpenQuicktime has an overloadable plugin mechanism. This is a
|
||
|
|
complexe feature which enables any application to use its own
|
||
|
|
codecs instead of the OpenQuicktime ones.
