Streaming: Video Packetization

[LarsP]

I am doing my thesis on video streaming. The idea is to figure out which packet holds an I-frame (as in MPEG) and which holds another (like P or B - frame) to prioritize them. We use VLC (in Transport Stream/UDP) to transport the packets over the network. Now, does anyone know which is the best way to figure out which packet contains what?

cf "include/vlc_block.h" :

Code: Select all

/** Intra frame */ #define BLOCK_FLAG_TYPE_I 0x0002 /** Inter frame with backward reference only */ #define BLOCK_FLAG_TYPE_P 0x0004 /** Inter frame with backward and forward reference */ #define BLOCK_FLAG_TYPE_B 0x0008 /** For inter frame when you don't know the real type */ #define BLOCK_FLAG_TYPE_PB 0x0010
