[Mp4-tech] mpeg4 short header/h263 baseline avi file

[Lorenzo Restelli]

 Hi,
I have got problem to decode my H263 bitstream stored into avi file. Based
on the fact H263 bitstream is MPEG4 short Header, I stored my bitstream into
avi file without VOS,VO configuration header: it's permitted by MPEG4
standard. So in the avi file my bitstream start with 0x000080 bytes that is
the PSC of the first coded picture.  The only way to decode it by an MPEG-4
decoder is setting the fourCC to 'h263', but in this way my ffmpeg decoder
uses h263 decoder and not a mpeg4 decoder that should support short header
tool as the standard says. More over, In ffmpeg I didn't found any short
header support, why? How may I handle the avi file? I have to modify my h263
bitstream or not?
Thank in advance
Lorenzo
