Codec SDK
All components are based on the Microsoft® DirectShow® architecture and is implemented as a DirectShow® transform filter.
MPEG2 Encoder :
av3MPEG2Encoder - The MPEG-2 Video Encoder filter is a software module for video stream encoding into MPEG-2 (ISO/IEC 13818-2) format.
MP3 Encoder :
av3MP3Encoder - MPEG Audio Encoder is a DirectShow® filter that provides audio encoding into MPEG format.
MPEG2 Muxer PE(S) :
av3MPEG2MuxerPE - MPEG2 Muxer is a DirectShow® filters that provides the MPEG-2 Packet Elementary Stream PE(S) generation.
MPEG2 Muxer PS :
av3MPEG2MuxerPS - MPEG2 Muxer is a DirectShow® filters that provides the MPEG-2 Program Stream (PS) generation.
MPEG2 Muxer TS :
av3MPEG2MuxerTS - MPEG2 Muxer is a DirectShow® filters that provides the MPEG-2 Transport Stream (TS) generation.
MP4 Multiplexer:
av3MP4Muxer - MP4 Multiplexer is a DirectShow® filter intended for the generation of MPEG-4 (Intermedia Format (MP4)) System Streams.
av3MPEG2WriterTest (binary and source code are presented in Codec SDK) :
av3MPEG2WriterTest is a write test tool that compresses MPEG2 files at high speed, without loss of image quality. av3MPEG2WriterTest is designed with Video Codec SDK and is the example of using the SDK components in user application. Application's UI is based on MFC classes.
