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:

VC-1

Implement the VC-1 codec based on the emerging open specification document and coming roadmap. Mentor: Mike Melanson

AAC

Implement a new, optimized AAC decoder based on the emerging open specification document. Mentor: Mike Melanson

FFmpeg Refactoring

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

Dirac

Implement the Dirac codec based on the upcoming new specification from Dirac site Mentor: Luca Barbato

libavformat

Improve and document libavformat API

NUT

Update the NUT container format support (the current one implements an ancient specification), check the current one here Mentor: Luca Barbato

SNOW

Optimize and document SNOW wavelet codec Mentor: Luca Barbato

Profiling and Optimization

Profile and optimize memory usage

Vorbis

Implement a Vorbis encoder

AC3

Implement a LGPL (E)AC3 decoder Mentor: Benjamin Larsson

AMR

Implement a LGPL AMR decoder (encoder)

MP3

Implement a simple MP3 encoder

Pyschoacoustics

Implement a good pychoacoustic model. Support the usage of this model from the AC3, MP2 and other audio encoders.
