H.264 Encoder Bitstream

[Neha]

Hello Everyone,

I have implemented H.264 encoder and decoder but encoder output bitstream is not a standard one. Its kind of proprietory. Now I want to decode my encoded bitstream using VLC player. So for that bitstream should be standard one. Can anyone suggest me how to go about it. I have gone through standard, but its confusing. Can someone suggest me any tutorial or anything?

Thanks,
Neha

maybe installing haali splitter and ffdshow can help?

with this installed "media player classic homecinema" plays everything fine for me

Hey thanks for the reply...
but actually my problem is little different...My output is not standard output bitstream, so standard decoders wont be able to decode it... I need to make my output stream a standard one....for that I need to add headers n other things (i guess for every macroblock)...so how to add those extra things to make it standard output....that is basically my problem....I am finding "H.264 standard reference material" a bit confusing in that...
Thanks
Neha

i am not sure if this is a right idea but i think the RTP dump provided with h.264 encoder and decoder can actually help you to add header bits to your bitstream.
