NAME
fame_encode_slice - encode a single slice
SYNOPSIS
#include <fame.h>
int fame_encode_slice(fame_context_t *context);
DESCRIPTION
fame_encode_slice() encodes a single slice (part of frame). Slices are
processed from top to bottom of frame. The number of slices to process
depends on the slices_per_frame parameter specified during fame_init
fame_start_frame should be called before coding the first slice and
fame_end_frame should be called after coding the last slice.
context is the context handle previously returned by fame_open
RETURN VALUE
fame_encode_slice returns the number of bytes written to the bitstream
buffer. If all slices have been coded, zero is returned.
EXAMPLE
fame_start_frame(fc, &yuv, NULL);
while((length = fame_encode_slice(fc)) != 0)
write(output, buffer, length);
fame_end_frame(fc, NULL);
BUGS
MMX arithmetic performs bad at quality > 95%. Encoding of B frames is
not yet supported.
