smpte2022lib

Optimized and cross platform SMPTE 2022-1 FEC library in C, Python, Java.
-----------------
Brief description

SMPTE 2022-1 is a forward error correction standard for real-time video/audio (RTP) transport over IP networks.
Initial goal of the project was to help VLC and others to implement this FEC algorithm by implementing a standalone C/C++ SMPTE 2022-1 FEC streams generator and receiver.
Nowadays I focus on using the newer Java and Python implementations for some Ra&D projects using RTP streams.
---------
ForPython

I developed this version to generate SMPTE 2022-1 FEC streams from a sniffed RTP media stream.
This implementation is now part of pytoolbox (see commit).
-------
ForJava

This is the Java re-implementation of the old C/C++ SMPTE 2022-1 FEC library.
I developed this version to receive protected RTP multicast streams from an Android device.
Of course, you can also use it for another purpose (e.g. a Java powered PC application).
Note
`FecReceiver.java` is the RTP / SMPTE 2022-1 FEC receiver.
--------
ForC_old

This is the first (abandon-ware) implementation of the library.
I do not use it anymore and I really think that this implementation needs some heavy refactoring.
You can read the resume of the project files if you understand French.

GNU/Linux (e.g. Ubuntu 64)

Compiling step by step

install CodeBlocks and g++ with sudo apt-get install codeblocks g++
open file ForC_old/CodeBlocks/VLC-SMPTE.workspace with CodeBlocks
double click on project Smpte-2022- in CodeBlocks IDE and Ctrl+F11 to compile
double click on project FecGenerator in CodeBlocks IDE and Ctrl+F11 to compile
double click on project ErrorsGenerator in CodeBlocks IDE and Ctrl+F11 to compile
double click on project FecDecoder in CodeBlocks IDE and Ctrl+F11 to compile

Testing step by step

open a terminal in path ForC_old/Release-linux64
execute sh script_example.sh "source_file_name"
read logs of each module
compare *.raw output file (without any error recovery) and *.david output file (recovered by SMPTE 2022-1 library)
execute each module with different options :
- like this : source_file -> FecGenerator -> FecDecoder -> results_files
- or like this : source_file -> FecGenerator -> ErrorsGenerator -> FecDecoder -> results_files

Steps are equivalent to GNU/Linux steps with some variations (CodeBlocks running under a MinGW environment).

Steps are equivalent to GNU/Linux steps with some variations (scripts names and files extensions).

This is the work done by Jérémie Mathieu Rossier to integrate the old C/C++ SMPTE 2022-1 FEC library into VLC.
