Adding "new" codecs?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Markus,

As you want it to be implemented as new codec by copying speex wrapper
files, all you need to modify are those copied files (e.g: different
API/function names, payload type, etc) and add the codec init in the
application.

You can put the codec init right after endpoint instantiation, for
example please see pjsua, it is in pjsua_media_subsys_init()
pjsua_media.c.

That's all.


As alternative, you can just make one copy of the speex wrapper (to
leave the original unchanged) for all the bitrates, since the codec
factory can handle more than one codec as long as you can
differentiate them. The current speex codec factory differentiate them
using clock rates, so there are 3 'different' codecs handled by this
factory (NB, WB, UWB).
You can try to implement the codec wrapper by changing the
differentiator (e.g: by payload type or codec name).


Regards,
nanang
