Output File

The Output File section allows selection of the MPEG-4 file to be generated. The IBM MPEG-4 Audio Video Content Generator Tool supports generating various MPEG-4 file formats.

The Tool combines audio and video media files into a single MPEG-4 file. The following are the supported MPEG-4 file formats:

  • Standard MPEG-4 binary files. The standard MPEG-4 file format is suitable for exchanging MPEG-4 content between authors.
  • Hinted MPEG-4 binary files. Hinted MPEG-4 files are suitable for streaming from RTP/RTSP servers. The hinted MPEG-4 file is compatible for use with ISMA or 3GPP compliant devices. The tool supports adding both ISMA compliant media and other popular media content into a hinted MPEG-4 file. Note: although the tool allows the addition of other popular media types, other than just ISMA compliant media, in practice the use of such content is dependent on having available devices supporting such additional capabilities beyond the scope that ISMA defines for compliant interoperability. Check the device specifications with regards to additional popular media types. A hinted MPEG-4 file compatible for use with ISMA compliant devices must contain one of the following:
    • One video
    • One audio
    • One video and one audio
  • MVR MPEG-4 and MPEG-4 Multiplex streamable files. MVR MPEG-4 and MPEG-4 Multiplex files are suitable for streaming across the internet with a standard HTTP server.

The following figure shows the output file section.

The Input Files section

The output file section allows selection for the hinted MPEG-4 file. It contains an entry field and browse button. The entry field allows directly typing in the MPEG-4 file name. Selecting the browse button will open a file selection dialog for navigation to the desired output directory or file.
