  1. ffmpeg TODO list:
  2. ----------------
  3. Fabrice's TODO list: (unordered)
  4. -------------------
  5. Short term:
  6. - seeking API and example in ffplay
  7. - use AVFMTCTX_DISCARD_PKT in ffplay so that DV has a chance to work
  8. - add RTSP regression test (both client and server)
  9. - make ffserver allocate AVFormatContext
  10. - clean up (incompatible change, for 0.5.0):
  11. * AVStream -> AVComponent
  12. * AVFormatContext -> AVInputStream/AVOutputStream
  13. * suppress rate_emu from AVCodecContext
  14. - add new float/integer audio filterting and conversion : suppress
  15. CODEC_ID_PCM_xxc and use CODEC_ID_RAWAUDIO.
  16. - fix telecine and frame rate conversion
  17. Long term (ask me if you want to help):
  18. - commit new imgconvert API and new PIX_FMT_xxx alpha formats
  19. - commit new LGPL'ed float and integer-only AC3 decoder
  20. - add WMA integer-only decoder
  21. - add new MPEG4-AAC audio decoder (both integer-only and float version)
  22. Michael's TODO list: (unordered) (if anyone wanna help with sth, just ask)
  23. -------------------
  24. - optimize H264 CABAC
  25. - more optimizations
  26. - simper rate control
  27. Francois' TODO list: (unordered, without any timeframe)
  28. -------------------
  29. - test MACE decoder against the openquicktime one as suggested by A'rpi
  30. - BeOS audio input grabbing backend
  31. - BeOS video input grabbing backend
  32. - have a REAL BeOS errno fix (return MKERROR(EXXX);), not a hack
  33. - publish my BeOS libposix on BeBits so I can officially support ffserver :)
  34. - check the whole code for thread-safety (global and init stuff)
  35. Philip'a TODO list: (alphabetically ordered) (please help)
  36. ------------------
  37. - Add a multi-ffm filetype so that feeds can be recorded into multiple files rather
  38. than one big file.
  39. - Authenticated users support -- where the authentication is in the URL
  40. - Change ASF files so that the embedded timestamp in the frames is right rather
  41. than being an offset from the start of the stream
  42. - Make ffm files more resilient to changes in the codec structures so that you
  43. can play old ffm files.
  44. unassigned TODO: (unordered)
  45. ---------------
  46. - use AVFrame for audio codecs too
  47. - rework aviobuf.c buffering strategy and fix url_fskip
  48. - generate optimal huffman tables for mjpeg encoding
  49. - fix ffserver regression tests
  50. - support xvids motion estimation
  51. - support x264s motion estimation
  52. - support x264s rate control
  53. - SNOW: non translational motion compensation
  54. - SNOW: more optimal quantization
  55. - SNOW: 4x4 block support
  56. - SNOW: 1/8 pel motion compensation support
  57. - SNOW: iterative motion estimation based on subsampled images
  58. - FLAC: lossy encoding (viterbi and naive scalar quantization)
  59. - libavfilter
  60. - JPEG2000 decoder & encoder
  61. - MPEG4 GMC encoding support
  62. - macroblock based pixel format (better cache locality, somewhat complex, one paper claimed it faster for high res)
  63. - finish NUT implementation
  64. - seeking regression test
  65. - regression tests for codecs which dont have an encoder (I+P frame bitstream in svn)
  66. - add support for using mplayers video filters to ffmpeg
  67. - reverse engeneer RV30/RV40
  68. - finish implementation of WMV2 j-picture
  69. - H264 encoder
  70. - per MB ratecontrol (so VCD and such do work better)
  71. - replace/rewrite libavcodec/fdctref.c
  72. - write a script which iteratively changes all functions between always_inline and noinline and benchmarks the result to find the best set of inlined functions
  73. - set up roundup bugtracker somewhere with (newBug, reproduced, analyzed, fixed, worksForMe, duplicate, wontFix, invalid, needMoreInfo, newPatch, ok, applied, rejected, needChanges, newRequest, implemented, wontImplement, invalidReq) states and a checked integer
  74. - convert all the non SIMD asm into small asm vs. C testcases and submit them to the gcc devels so they can improve gcc
