This is an mp4 track metadata parser.
Our primary interest is writing a pure-rust replacement for the track metadata parser needed by Firefox.
mp4parse
is a parser for ISO base media file format (mp4) written in rust.
mp4parse-capi
is a C API that exposes the functionality of mp4parse
. The C
API is intended to wrap the rust parser. As such, features should primarily
be implemented in the rust parser and exposed via the C API, rather than the C
API implementing features on its own.
Test coverage comes from several sources:
mp4parse/src/lib.rs
and
mp4parse_capi/src/lib.rs
as well as under mp4parse/tests
and
mp4parse_capi/tests
. These tests can be run via cargo test
.mp4parse_capi/examples
. These programs should
continue to build and run after changes are made. Note, these programs are not
typically run by cargo test
, so manual verification is required.The master branch represents the last version released to crates.io plus any
development since that release. Firefox will ship specific git revisions from
the master branch (refer to the mp4parse_capi
dependency listed in
toolkit/library/rust/shared/Cargo.toml
for the currently shipping revision). When sufficient changes to merit a new
crates.io release have occurred, the version in Cargo.toml will be bumped and
tagged, and the new version published to crates.io.
