- Hi,
-
- In the Berkeley distribution of mpeg_play, there is a field in the
- video stream structure called show_time. Apparently, that field is
- never used. So is there any real time consideration at all in mpeg_play
- to ensure a smooth display of the frames, namely that a frame is shown
- only when its supposed show time is reached? Or is it assumed that
- the workstation is never fast enough to display a frame too early so
- the goal is to get a frame displayed as early as possible?
-
- ANy insight is appreciated . Email to yau@cs.utexas.edu is preferred.
- Thanks in advance,
-
- David
