Detailed Description

Libquicktime tries it's best to produce proper files, with all the information neccesary for decoding the file with the right parameters. In some cases however, it might be useful to tweak the corresponding atoms individually. Please note that the functions described here, allow you full control over the atoms. But they also allow you to create horribly incompatible and undecodable files. Don't say you haven't been warned.

Function Documentation

int lqt_set_fiel	(	quicktime_t *	file,
		int	track,
		int	nfields,
		int	dominance
	)

Set the field attributes of a video track.

Parameters:

file

A quicktime handle Parameters: track  Track index (starting with 0) Parameters: nfields  number of fields (1 = progressive, 2 = interlaced) Parameters: dominance  field order/dominance (9 = top first, 14 = bottom first) Returns: 1 if the call was successful, 0 if there is no such track or invalid number of fields or invalid dominance The dominance parameter may also have the values 0, 1 and 6 but those are rarely used. The Apple documentation at http://developer.apple.com/quicktime/icefloe/dispatch019.html#fiel has more detailed information about the 'fiel' atom.

int lqt_get_fiel	(	quicktime_t *	file,
		int	track,
		int *	nfields,
		int *	dominance
	)

Get the field attributes of a video track.

Parameters:

file

A quicktime handle Parameters: track  Track index (starting with 0) Parameters: nfields  number of fields Parameters: dominance  field order/dominance Returns: 1 if the call was successful, 0 if there is no such track The Apple documentation at http://developer.apple.com/quicktime/icefloe/dispatch019.html#fiel has more detailed information about the 'fiel' atom.

int lqt_set_pasp	(	quicktime_t *	file,

Parameters:

file

A quicktime handle Parameters: track  Track index (starting with 0) Parameters: pasp  Pixel aspect atom Returns: 1 if the call was successful, 0 if there is no such track

int lqt_get_pasp	(	quicktime_t *	file,
		int	track,
		quicktime_pasp_t *	pasp
	)

Get the pixel aspect atom of a video track.

Parameters:

file

A quicktime handle Parameters: track  Track index (starting with 0) Parameters: pasp  Pixel aspect atom Returns: 1 if the call was successful, 0 if there is no such track

int lqt_set_clap	(	quicktime_t *	file,
