Google is sponsoring its second Summer of Code. FFmpeg has been selected as one of the approved mentoring organizations. Here are a few project ideas:

  • Implement the VC-1 codec based on the emerging open specification document and coming roadmap. Mentor: Mike Melanson
  • Implement a new, optimized AAC decoder based on the emerging open specification document. Mentor: Mike Melanson
  • Modularize the FFmpeg libraries so that each individual codec and muxer/demuxer modules can be easily enabled and disabled at compile time. Mentor: Mike Melanson
  • Implement the Dirac codec based on the upcoming new specification from Dirac site
  • Improve and document libavformat API
  • Update the NUT container format support (the current one implements an ancient specification), check the current one here
  • Document and optimize SNOW wavelet codec
  • Profile and optimize memory usage
  • Implement a Vorbis encoder
  • Implement a LGPL AC3 decoder
  • Implement a LGPL AMR decoder (encoder)
  • Implement a simple MP3 encoder
  • Implement a good pychoacoustic model. Support the usage of this model from the AC3, MP2 and other audio encoders.
