Demuxer and AAC

[thecaptain0220]

I am currently working on a Demuxer and I am having an issue with AAC audio. The problem is that with the format I am working with I only have a pts for the video. Since I dont have a pts for audio I cant get it to play back properly. Is there a way that I can get VLC to play back the audio as it gets it at the rate specified without looking at the PTS?

No.

Since this isn't directly VLC related I did not want to fill up the forum here, but if you have any ideas I would appreciate it.

Just wanted to put a little more info in hopes that someone here might have a little insight. You guys are the gurus and might notice something i am doing wrong.

Does AAC audio have static incrementing PTS values? I have blocks off AAC audio and I tried sending the audio and incrementing the PTS with no success. The frame sizes are different but I'm pretty sure its the same number of samples in each so wouldn't the PTS increase the same amount with each packet?

Here is my audio initialization

Code: Select all

es_format_t audioFmt; es_format_Init(&audioFmt, AUDIO_ES, 0); audioFmt.i_codec = VLC_CODEC_MP4A; audioFmt.audio.i_channels = 2; audioFmt.audio.i_rate = 48000;

Here is the code in the demux

Code: Select all

//Read the audio frame buf = stream_Block(demux->s, frameLen); if (!buf) return 0; buf->i_dts = buf->i_pts = sys->aacPTS; es_out_Send(demux->out, sys->audioES, buf); sys->aacPTS += 20000;

I have tried different values to increment the pts by with no success.

Here is my message output
