[FFmpeg-devel] Protocol - Simple question!

[Fernando Pelliccioni]

Hi all,

This is my first post in the list.

I'm doing some tests.

I am debugging the ffmpeg.exe code using the following arguments.

ffmpeg.exe -vcodec mjpeg -i *.jpg works.flv


Platform: Windows XP (32 bits) with MSVC

Broadly speaking, this is the trace of the functions executed...

...
opt_input_file
av_open_input_file
url_fopen
url_open
url_alloc                               -- set protocol to "file"
url_connect
file_open (file.c)

fd = open(filename, access, 0666);   // with filename == "*.jpg"
                                                     // return ... fd == -1


I have a problem with

fd = open(filename, access, 0666);   //with filename == "*.jpg"

because the "open" returns an error when trying to open the file "*. jpg",
which sounds logical


It is right that input as "*. jpg" are handled by the File Protocol (file.c)
?


Thanks in advance,
Fernando Pelliccioni.
