Hi James, It is fairly straightforward to read the fmtp line and convert it to something FFMPEG can use. First, read the SPS and PPS from the SDP using MediaSubsession::fmtp_spropparametersets(). Then you will split the returned string at the comma, if present. The first half will be the SPS and the second half will be the PPS. Base64 decode both of these strings (using Live555's base64Decode function if you wish), then write them to a buffer, with start codes, in the following order:
Start Code (00 00 01 or 00 00 00 01) SPS Start Code (00 00 01 or 00 00 00 01) PPS A couple notes: 1. I can't recall if I had to use 00 00 01 or 00 00 00 01 to make FFMPEG happy. I would expect to use 00 00 00 01, but my code currently has 00 00 01, so you may have to try both. 2. I feed the extradata to FFMPEG using a buffer that is padded with 'FF_INPUT_BUFFER_PADDING_SIZE' extra bytes. I can't recall if this is necessary or not. 3. You must malloc the AVCodecContext::extradata buffer with av_malloc, if I recall correctly. These are the basic exact steps of what my implementation does and it works fine, though my streams also have SPS, PPS and IDR NALs embedded in them. Good luck, Chris Richardson WTI -----Original Message----- From: live-devel-boun...@ns.live555.com [mailto:live-devel-boun...@ns.live555.com] On Behalf Of James Norris Sent: Thursday, November 17, 2011 12:13 PM To: live-de...@ns.live555.com Subject: [Live-devel] MediaSubsession SDP description to NAL Hey all, This is a long shot, but does live555 contain any code that might convert the fmtp line from the SDP description of the MediaSubsession::savedSDPLines (), back into a NAL, in the same data format as the one which was parsed to create the line. I would like to feed it into ffmpeg in the form of AvCodecContext::extradata, seems like the only way to get it to parse the SPS/PPS without the NALs being inline.
