Argh, I've been working day and night on a video player, currently I'm just looking at mpeg-4 data inside of an AVI container, no other formats for now. One problem - MPEG-4's standards appear to have disappeared! Would anyone have any idea ( or knowledge ) on MPEG-4's format? If I can get a C/CPP structure or the original specs, I can reverse engineer it from there. At the time, I've been guessing, and while I've full finished AVI, I have no clue on how to decode the MPEG data segments, which just happen to be in 01dc...ie: compressed form.

Here is some very good information for the file structure: MPEG-4 files

Not quite, while the second one does have a bit of information, its mainly the "for-the-review-that-doesn't-know-how-to-read-geek" and doen't contain anything specific. The first one is just for reading special FourCC codes from AAC part 2 that iTunes sticks into a file. Its really painful to find info on MPEG-4...or 2 for that matter. I'm trying to reverse engineer it now, but I expect it to take me awhile...
