Technical notes: --------------- - To increase speed, only motion vectors (0,0) are tested - The decision intra/predicted macroblock is the algorithm suggested by the mpeg 1 specification. - only Huffman based H263 is supported, mainly because of patent issues. - Many options can be modified only in the source code. - I rewrote the mpeg audio layer 2 compatible encoder from scratch. It is one of the simplest encoder you can imagine (800 lines of C code !). It is also one of the fastest because of its simplicity. They are still some problems of overflow. A minimal psycho acoustic model could be added. Only mono stream can be generated. I may add stereo if needed. - I rewrote the AC3 audio encoder from scratch. It is fairly naive, but the result are quiet interesting at 64 kbit/s. It includes extensions for low sampling rates used in some Internet formats. Differential and coupled stereo is not handled. Stereo channels are simply handled as two mono channels.
