Looking for open source MPEG and JPEG encoders (C/C++)

[Emiel Schiphorst]

I'm working on efficient baseline JPEG to proprietary MPEG-1 transcoding.
Both formats have a lot in common in their encoding.

Instead of coding from scratch,
for a little programming project on the Windows platform I'm looking for:

a. open source C/C++ MPEG encoder (with the source code)
b. compiler belonging to a.
c. open source C/C++ JPEG encoder (with the source code)
d. compiler belonging to c.

Any suggestions and comparisons are welcome on all 4.

bbMPEG is an open source MPEG encoder...

there is a list of open source code here http://www.mpeg.org/MPEG/index.html

Hi,
Maybe I already have developped what you're looking for.

A while ago, I required a Jpeg/Gif/Bmp/Ppm 2 MPeG encoder for my program VCDwizard.
The project is a win32 DLL (so only developpers can use it) and does do the conversation in 1 function call (so no messing around with many functions).

The Mpeg created is suitable for VCD (Mpeg-1 still's) and/or for SVCD (Mpeg-2 still's).

The project is GNU GPL'd (so free) and can be obtained from following location : https://sourceforge.net/projects/mjpgtools/.

If you want to edit the code, you require "MS-VisualStudio 6.0 (or above) Enterprise" - if you don't have that or don't want to mess with the code, then use the DLL directly. The DLL has been linked so it can be imported in any win32 development-environment (VB, VC, Delphi, ...).
Hope I helped you with this..
cu.

Hi I am trying to do edge detection in a video file using C in linux or Unix. I am new to both linux and Unix. Is there any simple video file format available or is it better to do using webcam.
