@ -139,9 +139,6 @@ stream/*:
Some stream inputs are just there to invoke special demuxers, like
stream_mf.c. (Basically to make the prefix "mf://" do something special.)
cache.c is a caching wrapper around streams implementations, needed for
smooth network playback.
demux/:
Demuxers split data streams into audio/video/sub streams, which in turn
are split in packets. Packets (see demux_packet.h) are mostly byte chunks
@ -155,6 +152,10 @@ demux/:
There is a stream header for each audio/video/sub stream, and each of them
holds codec information about the stream and other information.
demux.c is a bit big, the main reason being that it contains the demuxer
cache, which is implemented as a list of packets. The cache is complex
because it support seeking, multiple ranges, prefetching, and so on.
video/:
This contains several things related to audio/video decoding, as well as
video filters.
