Comment (by sceedy):
The code is based on information from DVDinfo which has moved to web
address http://dvd.sourceforge.net/dvdinfo/ifo.html since I wrote the
code.
I am indeed donating the code into the public domain.
I acknowledge that my code does not have a proverbial “snowball’s chance
in hell” of meeting your coding standards. I am retired. When my employer
upgraded from windows xp several software vendors were charging the same
for an upgrade licence from xp as a new licence. This resulted in the
donation of xp licences to several employees designated as “key engineers”
for use at home for personal reasons as well as business reasons. I
therefore have access to software that would cost me approximately £30K to
replace, all covered by NDAs. My coding standards allow me to take
advantage of these tools, but, they are fundamentally incompatible with
yours.
I have had use of the ffmpeg libraries to produce program(s) for my PVR’s
user group, which take almost all of my spare time. However I wish to give
back “in kind”, hence donation in the form of proof of concept code. I am
human so can make mistakes. However I hope this code will always be
debugged, protected against errors and pass a set of automated tests.
Unfortunately these tests can not be published because of NDAs.
Is the above explicit enough?
