remove_vps() also removes any SPS referencing this VPS (and remove_sps() does the same with PPS). Therefore if you simply repeat a VPS without also repeating the other parameter sets directly after the new VPS and before the first video NALU after the VPS, your extradata will have been discarded. This is not what the spec says. - Andreas _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
