alternatives to h264parse and x264enc

[shyam]

Hi,

         I want to use only base or good plugins in my application. Are
there alternatives for h264parse and x264enc in good or base plugins ?
         
Thanks & Regards,
Shyam

Hi,

No, the H.264 codec is covered by patents, so code that handles it won't reach -good until those patents expire. That said, -ugly is exactly like -good quality-wise, except that it's separate to warn you about patent issues. The parsers are in -bad because they depend on the parsing library that has an API that we're not fully satisfied with.

Thanks Oliver for clarifying this. Now I think I can use these plugins
without worry. :)
How are the patents handled for the x264enc plugin ? Do we need to pay any
royalty if we use commercially? If yes to whom?

Thanks & Regards,
Shyam

Hi,
I believe you must pay royalties to MPEG.

Sorry, I don't understand your question. Maybe it's a wrong way. you could
try another h264 encode.

openMAX IL, VAAPI, Intel Media SDK ...etc.
