Description

I will upload an ASP elementary streams that shows accumulating artefacts with ffmpeg, plays fine with mplayer -vc xvid -demuxer lavf (-demuxer mpeg4es produces different artefacts).

you can use -idct 14
is there any player that can autodetect this ?
if not this ticket probably should be closed,

Resolution: invalid
Status: newclosed

The original file was http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/V-codecs/RMP4/greenlines.rmp4.p.avi produced with Sigma Designs' "REALmagic" encoder and the original question should have been if the FourCC is needed to identify the idct (since xvid apparently doesn't need it).

Which (kind of) sample will fail to decode correctly with the xvid decoder?

Replying to cehoyos:

Which (kind of) sample will fail to decode correctly with the xvid decoder?

If xvid uses this idct by default (instead of somehow detecting itself as encoder) then more or less any sample with large gop encoded by a different encoder with different idct could potentially fail. most samples would of course not fail
