[Soc-2005-dev] FFMpeg integration

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi Ian,

Also thanks for the wiki page!
http://wiki.blender.org/bin/view.pl/Blenderdev/FFMpegIntegration

I still miss some information, like:

- how will 'codecs' be stored... for quicktime we now have a quite  
obscure method (although it works!) which fully includes a codec string  
in the .blend file. But this is also since it has to communicate with a  
standard OSX/Windows platform library.

- where will this ffmpg lib reside... are you going to make it a  
dynamic library, creating an installation dependency? If it's static,  
what would it mean for the distribution size?

- will it be for linux only? If not, how does it work together with the  
current formats then?

- will it allow multiple Blender clients (on a renderfarm) to save into  
the same output file?

-Ton-
