General Ideas

  • SRT to HTML overlay library in javascript.
  • Proof of concept liboggplay-based media patch for Google's Chrome browser.
  • mod_duration apache module to generate X-Content-Duration headers for Ogg files.

Detailed Project Description

Proof of Concept liboggplay (html5 video) support in Chrome Browser

This project would focus on creating a patch for basic liboggplay support into chrome. This project would only need to be a proof of concept with the end result being some frames decoded in the browser. Buffering, and full html5 video feature set support would not need to be addressed.
