Hello everybody,
as I am so tired about people who are claiming that the two additional fields (subtitle-start & -duration) would not be required and I would not have made plausible why those would be needed and it would be doable with the pts and duration fields of AVFrame alone, that I'm setting up the following challenge: I will pay $1,000 (one-thousand US dollar) to the first person who is able to show me a patched implementation of my Subtitle Filtering Patchset from 2022 (https://github.com/softworkz/FFmpeg/tree/submit_subfiltering) which fulfills the following criteria: - The subtitle_timing struct from AVFrame is removed and the information is not stored anywhere else - All existing functionality is working like it did before Fineprint What's crucial is not the absence of those fields. The point is that it must work without the extra INFORMATION. This means that any kind of creative way for storing the extra information is not valid. It must work without, even at a logical level. Please do not start working on it yet!! Contact me first, then I will work out a detailed rule set which clarifies individual conditions (e.g. specifying which functionality needs to be working and how this is tested, etc.) But there's no bad surprise when contacting me or something. This is a serious challenge. I have always said that it is not possible to achieve the same functionality without those extra timing fields. And I was told that I'm wrong. By several people: - Lynne - Anton Khirnov - Hendrik Leppkes - and some others So folks: Here's your chance. According to your attitudes and statements, those 1k USD should be an easy win for you. Participate and prove your claims - earn that bounty! (qualified are only persons who have reviewed my patchset and understand the topic) (the challenges expires on 2025-06-12) Best regards softworkz _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
