We need mentors !
Ideas SoC 2007
GUI intfs for the mozilla plugins
BDA Drivers
and TV stuffs for windows
Subtitles support
SSA, freetype, whatever
Preferrably incorporating either the libass (http://sourceforge.net/projects/libass/) or asa (http://asa.diac24.net/Main_Page) libraries instead of writing our own.
Fullscreen Controller
RTCP support
Vista acceleration support
Vout Rework (lol)
Working skins2 support on OSX
OSX Leopard support
especially: QTKit Capture API, Resolution independence, iChat Theatre
Mac OS X Framework
Create a VLC framework that can be used by both VLC.app and VLCplugin.bundle. (Trac Ticket #739)
VLM Schedule rework
WinCE port
Matroska (mkv) muxing
robUx4 can do the mentoring. He already wrote the demux and knows mkv really well. Sounds like a nice SoC subject. http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=33015
Hint MP4/MOV Files
Add video and audio hint tracks as the output file is muxed. Resulting files can be streamed from RTSP server with trickplay, like DSS/QTSS. Probably requires use of GPAC libraries.
Extract Subtitles
It would be great to have an easy way to extract subtitles from all the types of embedding used in different formats of video streams. DVB, line 23, etc. Google could be interested because it's a really hard, but discrete task. And who wouldn't like search google videos with text.
