[vdr] Changing remux.c from MPEG-PES to VOB-compliant-MPEG

["Rene Bartsch" <vdr@bartschnet.de>]

Hi,

after reading the supported codecs/formats table from new FFMPEG 0.4.6 I got
the idea to exchange remux.c with the libavformat-library from ffmpeg.
5.1 File Formats
FFmpeg supports the following file formats through the libavformat library:
Supported File Format  Encoding  Decoding  Comments
      MPEG audio  X  X
      MPEG1 systems  X  X muxed audio and video
      MPEG2 PS  X  X also known as VOB file
      MPEG2 TS   X also known as DVB Transport Stream
      ASF X  X
      AVI X  X
      WAV X  X
      Macromedia Flash X  X Only embedded audio is decoded
      Real Audio and Video  X  X
      Raw AC3  X  X
      Raw MJPEG  X  X
      Raw MPEG video  X  X
      Raw PCM8/16 bits, mulaw/Alaw X  X
      SUN AU format  X  X
      Quicktime   X
      MPEG4   X MPEG4 is a variant of Quicktime
      Raw MPEG4 video  X  X
      DV   X Only the video track is decoded.


X means that the encoding (resp. decoding) is supported.


As ffmpeg supports MPEG-TS, now, we could keep up with Klaus Schmidingers
plans to keep straight to MPEG-TS for internal use in VDR.

Using FFMPEG would allow to directly remux, repack or reencode to VOB or
whatever we want (See table).

So there are two questions to realize it:

1st @Klaus Schmidinger: Are you agreeing to implement libavformat into VDR
(maybe as recording-plugins)?

2nd @All: Who has enough knowledge of VDR and A/V-codecs/-formats to do
this?


Rene
