[Live-devel] Develop H.264 Support

[Quentin Olson]

I think David is describing what I am looking for. Here is a link to a
20 second clip (CIF, low quantization, 10 FPS). The file is built by
capturing the frames directly from the encoder card.

There are a number of codec plugins you can use to play this directly in
windows media player, here's one.
