pbutils: handle more H.264 profiles/levels
Last modified: 2014-06-28 08:27:29 UTC
Add support for level 5.2 and SVC profiles = { "scalable-constrained-baseline", "scalable-baseline", "scalable-high" }
The level 5.2 allows for correctly supporting/exposing 2160p30+ videos ("4K"). The profile additions are helps for bug #732239
Is there a patch missing here?
Yes, to be written, was busy purging e-mails and writing other patches. Sorry, will post it soon, used that as a placeholder to remember about it. :)
Created attachment 279301 [details] [review] pbutils: handle more H.264 profiles and levels. Recognize H.264 Level 5.2, as exposed by modern 2160p30+ streams, i.e. commonly known as 4K. Also add initial support for handling Annex.G (SVC) profiles.
Review of attachment 279301 [details] [review]: Pushed to git master branch. I would consider a backport to 1.2 if a release off that branch is planned soon too?
