[Qt-interest] Phonon Framework and Mpeg TS

[Chinmaya Sn]

Thanks Josiah.

I was looking at the framework support itself, reason is I might not use
ffmpeg,
and I have requirement to switch codec implementations depending on
platform,
and in some cases I might have to write my own backend for this.

I did some more research, I think answer to my question is QtMultimedia, it
seems
to be solving the mepeg or similar transport-stream issues.
