Hi everyone,
is there a generic way to find out whether a file opened with
avformat_open_input() is actually an image file? I need to display an error if
the user tries to open an image instead of a video. The current code loops
through the codec_ids:
bool isImageCodec(AVCodecContext* context) {
int imageCodecIDs[] = {CODEC_ID_PNG,... , -1};
int i=0;
while (imageCodecIDs[i] != -1) {
if (imageCodecIDs[i] == context->codec_id) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
But that is obviously not very maintainable. It also fails for jpegs - these
have CODEC_ID_MJPEG and thus are indistinguishable from mjpeg files.
Is there a better way to do this?
Thanks,
Uli
