Video playback implementation (Media Engine)

[hrydgard]

Many games use the "media engine" to play MPEG or PSMF video, nearly always consisting of H.264 video and ATRAC3plus audio.

We should be able to at least play back the H.264 video by integrating FFMPEG. The ATRAC audio is a real problem though because there's currently no open source codec.

I've started some work on implementing the basic functions in the branch mediaengine.

just wonder any plan to intergrate the mediaengine branches to master ? not too sure the merge can help some games go further

[hrydgard]

It needs more work first.

Sorry to ask , just wonder how i can merge the mediaengine branch into master myself ? thus i can compile it in VS 2010 express to test the build

Try the following:

git checkout -b merged-mediaengine master
git merge mediaengine

And then build.

Humm ...

E:\documents\GitHub\ppsspp [master +0 ~0 -1]> git checkout -b merged-mediaengine master
D native
Switched to a new branch 'merged-mediaengine'
E:\documents\GitHub\ppsspp [merged-mediaengine +0 ~0 -1]> git merge mediaengine
fatal: mediaengine - not something we can merge
E:\documents\GitHub\ppsspp [merged-mediaengine +0 ~0 -1]>

I think i shouldn't try to merge them together as Hrydgard mentioned he need more work first .

Sorry, git merge origin/mediaengine. It would only be locally for you, and you could just git checkout master to revert it.
