consider that i have to display an i frame 10 times, so instead of sending the I frame 10 times, is it possible to send the i frame once in the beginning following which will be p frames 9 times (by converting i frame to p frame). I won't to do this to decrease the size.
AFAIK, a p frame refers to the earlier frame (i or p) .A p frame contains the motion vectors for macroblocks in the preceding frame and also new intracoded macroblocks that weren't there in the preceding frame. But in my case the latter part won't be there as same frame is sent again. so i suppose the motion vectors will never change, their value will remain zero as nothings moving.
plz, i need some guidance to achieve this ASAP. any MPEG expert out there? i deal with MPEG2.
