qt Quicktime container format support, through own gst code (no libs used), this one is trouble some. I would really like to see this in FE as this adds supports for videos made with many digital photo cameras to gstreamer using applications (usually these camera's just dump a raw audio stream and a serie of jpeg images into a .mov file. So where should this one go? I really don't know. Can anyone help here?
AFAIK there are no patents surrounding the QuickTime stream format (probably they knew very well that there was prior art) so it could just be included.
There are patents on other technology under the QuickTime umbrella (this is a blanket name) but not for the stream format itself.
