Hi,
I 've just started my work on it. It's my university project really.
All I need is to get video stream across network and display and the
other end. The main focus is on RTP part as steraming.
I have adopted jrtplib for porject, which do the packetization for RTP
as well as cover all the low level network operations such as UDP/IP.
Nice framework.
However, I haven't have access to other MPEG4 codec except opendivx
which is thought to be cpu intensive. Mind telling me where do you get
the H263 codec ???
You can get it here:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~roalt/h263.html
Note that libr263 is just the decoder, rewritten by Roalt Aalmoes for
speed; the original codec is telenor.tar.gz which is no longer
maintained. There are other streaming codecs out on the net that use
different algorithms. This is not your only choice.

How far along are you in this? I am working on a videoconferencing
project myself (still in planning phase) and I hope to make it so that
the codec used is user-selectable. Currently, I only have an H.263
codec
which I am using (I have to modify it some to read data the way I
want).
Personally, I think that divx is too cpu intensive to work well real
time, especially on older machines, or with multiple connections.
However, if you could get it to work well, it would be useful to my
project as an alternative. I am curious about your project: what the
focus is (ie, why someone would use your program rather than an
existing
one.), how it generally works, and any hints you can give for doing
this
sort of thing.
