  Hans, you mentioned some time ago that you were against ading H.264 or
  MPEG4
  fourccs, and that drivers should use the MPEG controls instead. Could
  you
  clarify your current position on this ?
 
 If I remember correct there was no clear conclusion on this. I hope we can
 discuss this
 during the upcoming meeting.
 
 Have you got an alternative suggestion to using fourccs?
 
 The existing MPEG controls won't cover all the functions and parameters
 that
 are
 used by video codecs. The controls that are in this patch are the ones
 related to
 decoding, there is even more for encoding.
 
 Yesterday I have been talking with Hans on the IRC channel about the
 control
 for
 quantization parameters and he has suggested to use different for MPEG4,
 H263 and H264.
 Personally I'd like to have a common one, as the QP meaning is the same in
 those 3
 cases, the difference is the range of the value.
 So I think that this still is a subject that could use more discussion as
 there are
 a few ideas.
According to the fource.org, and if fourcc definition here has been made
from fourcc.org,
We need to have a discussion about new types that Kamil added not only h264
but divx_xxx.
QP might be a same topic. So let's discuss more at Poland meeting.
 
 Best regards,

When I made the MPEG API originally I did design it to be usable for other
compression schemes as well. But we need to review that API in light of the
current developments and see if it can be used unchanged, needs tweaking or
perhaps should be abandoned altogether.

Regards,

Hans
