WIP

This is a Work In Progress. It is NOT a definitive, nor are the prices!

Rules

The bounties are paid to a legal entity that can create an invoice. It can be an independent worker.

Money is paid by the VideoLAN non-profit organization in Euros.

Money is paid on code merge in the relevant project. Sending a reasonable patch on a public mailing-list gives a temporary lock for the task.

List of bounties

AC-3 Volume

1000 €

Fix correctly the AC-3 volume issue. See #3994.

The issue can come from a mis-integration with liba52, or could come from some channels being wrongly discarded.

This must work on Windows.

libVLC API for filters

Correct libVLC API for audio filters, video filters, including equalizer.

This would be useful for phonon, tomahawk and other libVLC application.

libVLC API for smem

libVLC API for smem. This might include a libVLC API for sout.

libVLC API for imem

libVLC API for imem to map to a libvlc_media_t object.

ARM optimizations

ARM optimisation for core and important filters.

Ideas:

  • TBD
  • TBD

Local resampling

Stop audio resampling for local files (???).

DTS-HD Master Audio

3000 € Add a DTS-HD Master Audio Decoder.

This can be either in libavcodec or in libdca, but it must work in VLC in the end, including 8 channels. This is probably the XLL extension to code.

Bug -mt on Mpeg-4 video

300 € Fix the Mpeg-4 resolution change for -mt in libavcodec. See #6579 and #6533.

Bug -mt on H.264 video

300 € Fix the H.264 resolution change for -mt in libavcodec. See #7306.

MSS2

1000 € Add a MSS2 Decoder in libavcodec. See #750.

G2M

1000 € Add a G2M2/G2M3/G2M4 Decoder in libavcodec. See #2327.

VoxWare

500 € Add a VoxWare MetaSound Decoder in libavcodec.

BD+

2000 € Work on libbdplus to play BD+ BD in libbluray.

VC-1 interlacing

500 € Fix VC-1 interlaced and adding missing B-frames support in libavcodec. See #5887.

RTP packetization

100 € per item

  • Opus
  • WMA
  • WMV
  • VC-1
  • VP8

See #380, #1289, #1323, #6443, #5178 and #6505

SD API and Upnp

200 € The Upnp SD is very slow because it needs to fetch recusively all nodes. This needs to change.

This task will likely need a change of API for the Service Discoveries.

See #4437.

DVB scanning

1000 € In order to compete with TV software, we need some DVB scanning, working on all platforms. See #7248.

HDMI pass-thru

1000 € For other codecs than the normal AC-3 and DTS.

See #4940 and other.

Preferences for LUA extensions

Be able to add preferences for LUA extensions.

Downloader for LUA extensions from addons

See libattica.

Screencast

Currently the screencasting is poor:

  • No interface to correctly select both
  • No loopback on Windows and Mac
  • Need to check that all input are using mdate()-based PTS
