Thanks a lot Liang.....

Actually I'm going to parse the .mp4 file and have to extract audio n video streams seperately to give as input to the corresponding decoders.ie.I'm going to write the code for Mp4 parser according to 14496-part 14.

so for example if the .mp4 contains mpeg-4 video i will read 0x20 as ObjectTypeIndication,then i ll extract the DecoderSpecificInfo as the header for .m4v file(as per 14496-2) and after that i will simply put the encoded samples from the "mdat" area.SO, if the codecs are predefined then i can study about their header info .If the case is like this how should i proceed....Please tell me some suggestions.......

Thanks & Regards
Gomathi.

  Hi,

  MP4 is a file container. So in theory and in practical, you can put almost any kinds of MPEG-related codec inside this format. For example, you can put MPEG2 layer2 audio and MPEG4 H264 video into the same MP4 file. Just like a bag -- you can put any codec you like into the MP4 container.
