I am primary interested in utilities to work with the following formats:
Mpeg 1/2 System streams
Avi
Qt/mov
"Best" is very subjective, so I can't help you there since anyone will
say something else. The mjpegtools are pretty well able to handle all
three mentioned muxer formats. They support Quicktime/MJPEG, AVI/MJPEG,
AVI/DV, AVI/raw, AVI/divx (avifile-compatible AVIs) and MPEG-1/2. We
have decoders and encoders (except AVI/raw and AVI/DV) for each of them.
Thanks for your answer. I have never had to use a fifo before so I
didn't release you can do that.
Now, how about being able to simply extract the audio and video stream
from an AVI file and put it into a Quicktime file without any
conversions. How about the reverse. Also how about taking an AVI file
with Mpeg video in it (courtesy of MEncoder) and creating a valid Mpeg 1
system stream. Or what about being able to fix broken Quicktime or AVI
files, such as Quicktime files that don't have any codec code in it?
Thanks in advance.
