There are other alternatives that didn't make it to this list, such as Dirac, Theora, and DivX. In this article I'm going to look at some different options and discuss the advantages and drawbacks of each one: You have to pick one of the existing alternatives and do the best you can with it. So, creating your own solution is pretty much out of the question.
#BINK VIDEO TOOLS NOT CONVERTING ENTIRE VIDEO SOFTWARE#
Ah, the wonderful world of software patents. Mutually assured destruction through lawyers. Of course, if you had a big enough pool of patents of your own you might not have to care as much, since if someone sued you, you could sue them right back with something from your own stockpile.
If you want to do some video coding experiments of your own you will have to read, understand and memorize all these patents so that you can carefully tip-toe your code and algorithms around them. There are literally thousands of broad patents covering different aspects of video decompression. What is worse is that video playback is also a legal morass. Well, you have to make sure that the video is encoded correctly, that the library works on all platforms and plays nice with your memory, file, sound and streaming abstractions, and that the audio and video doesn't desynchronize, which for some inexplicable reason seems to be a huge problem.īut this is just technical stuff. So you want to play some video? Shouldn't be too hard, right? Just download some video playing library and call the play_video() function.
