[FFmpeg-devel] FFV1.3

[Boštjan Strojan]

Dave:

Could you add UT-video, huffyuv and x264 lossless to this test script?
(And whatever else lossless/usefull in ffmpeg)

Usage could be:

lossless_test.sh file.mov
or
lossless_test (without parameters it would use random noise)

Thanks,

Boštjan

Each random source file is then decoded to produce an md5. Then the random source is encoded with ffv1 version 1 and 3 which are then each used to produce a framemd5 output.
