[Mp4-tech] Question About H.264/AVC ---- POC - COPY with correct link

[ee09176 student.estg.ipleiria.pt]

Hi,
First of all I recommend you to take a look at H.264 doc, take it from here or 
from ITU:
http://www.student.estg.ipleiria.pt/~ee09176/H264_03_2005ITU.pdf
(sorry for the previous link, it had spaces in the name)
When you talk about the frame # order...do you have something like this on the 
decoder ?

...(tempete encoding)
the reason for that hop is because the encoder has to encode the P frames 
before the B frames in order to encode it bidirectionaly.
Good luck to your job.
