If you dont want to pass the type without support in ff_qp_table_extract() then IMHO its better to add very minimal generic support in ff_qp_table_extract() instead of hardcoding a type leaving the code with a constant argument.

I dont see why generic handling wouldnt work or is hard input is a set of rectangles, output is a ordered list of 16x16 squares The simplest could be a mere intersect and take maximum of the QP one wouldnt even need to use average for this to probably work reasonable codec specific QP would need to be mapped to the expectec scale though to avoid misunderstanding, iam not asking you to do any work here, just not to remove things like the type. OTOH if you want it to be all functional or not at all i think a very basic version of this should be rather simple that said, iam not blocking any patches above is just my oppinion Thanks [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB Dictatorship naturally arises out of democracy, and the most aggravated form of tyranny and slavery out of the most extreme liberty. -- Plato
