VFW decoder question
Hi! I am trying to use the vfw decoder of x264 in a video streaming application. I have been successfully using codecs like xvid, divx, and dicas h264 with my code, but the x264 decoder fails. I want to decribe shortly what my application does: It first sends the messages ICM_DECOMPRESS_GET_FORMAT and ICM_DECOMPRESS_BEGIN to setup the codec ( using calls to ICSendMessage ) and then starts decompressing with ICDecompress whenever a new frame is received. I keep getting -1 as return for the first ICM_DECOMPRESS_GET_FORMAT message, whatever output formats I try. In your release note you stated that vfw decoding is supported. Could you post a simple example ( in pseudo code ) showing the steps that are necessary to initialize the decoder before you can execute a ICDecompress ? Which output formats are supported by your codec. And which parts of the vfw interface are implemented? Best regards, Stefan
