Make transcode function asynchronous. #2

Closed manast closed 11 years ago

manast commented 12 years ago

Currently the transcode function is synchronous, which does not work properly in an event driven architecture. Besides, making decoding and encoding asynchronous may improve performance since while one thread is decoding other is encoding, possibly using multiple cores if available.

Any progress on this? :)

manast commented 12 years ago

It is on the top of my priority list for navcodec, and it is very important for the product that I am developing also so it will be fixed soon, but I cannot give a date yet.

@manast i dont know what are you doing regarding that but for a work project i implemented an async transcoder using node.js The idea was having "process" events , and transcoding n seconds of playback at a time [ where n was 1 in my case ].. The solution was pretty efficient , I am wondering how do you plan to do it ?

Hello,
