Summer of Code 2010

From XiphWiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This was our ideas page for Google Summer of Code projects with Xiph.org and Annodex. The two projects generally participate jointly under Xiph's name.

Xiph.org wasn't accepted as a mentoring organization for 2010. Maybe next year.


Applications

Students please use the template at Summer of Code Applications when applying for a GSoC position.

Mentors please visit Summer of Code Mentoring and help us prepare our application as a mentoring organization.

Current Ideas

OggIndex

OggIndex has recently been introduced and adds a keyframe index to the Ogg Skeleton track. Support needs to be added to many existing open source applications, such as MPlayer, VLC, etc, so that they can take advantage of the keyframe index when seeking. For more info see OggIndex-Migration, Ogg_Index, and Indexing keyframes in Ogg videos for fast seeking. Mentor: Chris Pearce

Skeleton support

Get skeleton patches upstream so players:

  • stop choking on it.
  • start using the information it contains.
