H264VideoDecoder Init Help

[bcisrd]

I am attempting to use H264VideoDecoder to view a network Camera. Imy problem is getting the decoder initialize properly. Using rtsp I am getting SDP with the following:

m=video 0 RTP/AVP 98
b=AS:0
a=rtpmap:98 H264/90000
a=fmtp:98 packetization-mode=1; profile-level-id=4d001f; sprop-parameter-sets=J00AH9oFB+Q=,KO48gA==

I believe to understand packetization-modeand sprop-parameter-sets. I don't understand how to use profile-level-id in conjuction with H264VideoDecoder? Below is a code snippet "m_pvidDecoder->GetInfo (&params)" always returns VM_NOT_INITIALIZED?

Can someone direct me on why this does not work?

I am using IPP 6.1.1.035 compiled using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 C++ on windows xp.

Okey, it appearsonly usingsprop-parameter-sets to initialize the decoder was the problem.When I created a BYTE array with the 2 elem of sprop-parameter-sets along with SPS and PPS, from the RTP stream,calling Init (...)succeeded without error.

I was mistaken that the 2 elements of sprop-parameter-sets were the same as SPS and PPS!? (A little confused by this?)

Now the decoder's GetFrame call is returning VM_NOT_ENOUGH_DATA. I have seen several threads on this topic so will be researching that.

Though Any and All comments are welcome.
