Libav is the right tool for the job, but it isn't easy to get started, because most people find the API to be unintuitive. Most of the documentation is in the header files and the example programs found in the source tree. You'll want to look at output_example.c If you also want to stream to the client, then you'll need to read through ffserver.c, and a good search of this list's archives will probably help too. If you want to use a specific codec and a specific streaming format, then you might find it easier to use libraries for that codec/format directly. However libav provides a nice wrapper that will make it easy to switch to new formats or codecs as needed. -- Michael Conrad IntelliTree Solutions llc. 513-552-6362 [email protected] _______________________________________________ libav-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mplayerhq.hu/mailman/listinfo/libav-user
