| 107 | | == MPEG-4 ALS codec improvements == |
| 108 | | |
| 109 | | '''Description:''' The implementation for MPEG-4 ALS is still missing some features and known bugs exist. This project aims to add missing features to the decoder and possibly the encoder as well as raising compatibility with the reference encoders. |
| 110 | | |
| 111 | | '''Expected results:''' Improve FFmpeg's ALS native decoder by implementing one or more of the following subtasks: |
| 112 | | * Add RLS-LMS prediction to the decoder / encoder |
| 113 | | * Add FATE regression tests for RLS-LMS if appropriate |
| 114 | | * Add floating-point support to the encoder |
| 115 | | * Validate comptibility with reference codecs RM22/RM23 |
| 116 | | * Fix system dependent bugs to make FATE "green" |
| 117 | | * Optimize FATE test samples in size and test coverage |
| 118 | | * Solve known bugs in the codec |
| 119 | | |
| 120 | | '''Prerequisites:''' C coding skills, basic familiarity with git. |
| 121 | | |
| 122 | | '''Qualification Task:''' Fix one of the known bugs of ALS listed in our [http://trac.ffmpeg.org/tags?wiki=on&ticket=on&q=als bugtracker]. |
