Multimedia Processing Web Device API Multimedia WepApp on Tizen - 1 - 1. HTML Multimedia • What is Multimedia ? − Multimedia comes in many different formats. It can be almost anything you can hear or see. − Examples : Pictures, music, sound, videos, records, films, animations, and more. − Web pages often contain multimedia elements of different types and formats. • Multimedia Formats − Multimedia elements (like sounds or videos) are stored in media files. − The most common way to discover the type of a file, is to look at the file extension. ⇔ When a browser sees the file extension .htm or .html, it will treat the file as an HTML file. ⇔ The .xml extension indicates an XML file, and the .css extension indicates a style sheet file. ⇔ Pictures are recognized by extensions like .gif, .png and .jpg. − Multimedia files also have their own formats and different extensions like: .swf, .wav, .mp3, .mp4, .mpg, .wmv, and .avi. Multimedia WepApp on Tizen - 2 - 2. Multimedia Playing with HTML5 Tags (1) HTML5 Video • Some of the popular video container formats include the following: Audio Video Interleave (.avi) Flash Video (.flv) MPEG 4 (.mp4) Matroska (.mkv) Ogg (.ogv) • Browser Support Multimedia WepApp on Tizen - 3 - • Common Video Format Format File Description .mpg MPEG. Developed by the Moving Pictures Expert Group. The first popular video format on the MPEG .mpeg web. Used to be supported by all browsers, but it is not supported in HTML5 (See MP4). AVI (Audio Video Interleave). Developed by Microsoft. Commonly used in video cameras and AVI .avi TV hardware. Plays well on Windows computers, but not in web browsers. WMV (Windows Media Video). Developed by Microsoft. Commonly used in video cameras and WMV .wmv TV hardware. Plays well on Windows computers, but not in web browsers. QuickTime. Developed by Apple. Commonly used in video cameras and TV hardware. Plays QuickTime .mov well on Apple computers, but not in web browsers. (See MP4) .rm RealVideo. Developed by Real Media to allow video streaming with low bandwidths. It is still RealVideo .ram used for online video and Internet TV, but does not play in web browsers. .swf Flash. Developed by Macromedia. Often requires an extra component (plug-in) to play in web Flash .flv browsers. Ogg .ogg Theora Ogg. Developed by the Xiph.Org Foundation. Supported by HTML5. .web WebM. Developed by the web giants, Mozilla, Opera, Adobe, and Google. Supported by WebM m HTML5. MP4. Developed by the Moving Pictures Expert Group. Based on QuickTime. Commonly used MPEG-4 .mp4 in newer video cameras and TV hardware. Supported by all HTML5 browsers. Recommended or MP4 by YouTube. − Only MP4, WebM , and Ogg video are supported by the newest HTML5 standard. Multimedia WepApp on Tizen - 4 - • Video Tag − Until now, there has not been a standard for showing a video/movie on a web page. − Today, most videos are shown through a plug-in (like flash ). However, different browsers may have different plug-ins. − HTML5 defines a new element which specifies a standard way to embed a video/movie on a web page: the <video> element. ⇔ The control attribute adds video controls, like play, pause, and volume. − Text between the <video> and </video> tags will only display in browsers that do not support the <video> element. − The <video> element allows multiple <source> elements. ⇔ <source> elements can link to different video files. ⇔ The browser will use the first recognized format . <video width="320" height="240" controls="controls"> <source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4" /> <source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg" /> Your browser does not support the video tag. </video > http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml5_video_all − To start a video automatically use the autoplay attribute: ⇔ <video width="320" height="240" autoplay > Multimedia WepApp on Tizen - 5 - − Example http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml5_video_js_prop <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <div style="text-align:center"> <button onclick ="playPause()">Play/Pause</button> <button onclick ="makeBig()">Big</button> <button onclick ="makeSmall()">Small</button> <button onclick ="makeNormal()">Normal</button> <br /> <video id="video1" width="420"> <source src="mov_bbb.mp4" type="video/mp4" /> <source src="mov_bbb.ogg" type="video/ogg" /> Your browser does not support HTML5 video. </video> </div> <script type="text/javascript"> var myVideo=document.getElementById("video1"); function playPause() { if (myVideo.paused) myVideo.play(); else myVideo.pause(); } function makeBig() { myVideo.width=560; } function makeSmall() { myVideo.width=320; } function makeNormal() { myVideo.width=420; } </script> <p>Video courtesy of <a href="http://www.bigbuckbunny.org/" target="_blank">Big Buck Bunny</a>.</p> </body> </html> Multimedia WepApp on Tizen - 6 - • HTML Audio and Video DOM Reference − The HTML5 DOM has methods, properties, and events for the <audio> and <video> elements. − These methods, properties, and events allow you to manipulate <audio> and <video> elements using JavaScript. − HTML Audio/Video Methods Method Description addTextTrack() Adds a new text track to the audio/video canPlayType() Checks if the browser can play the specified audio/video type load() Re-loads the audio/video element play() Starts playing the audio/video pause() Pauses the currently playing audio/video Multimedia WepApp on Tizen - 7 - − HTML Audio/Video Properties Property Description audioTracks Returns an AudioTrackList object representing available audio tracks autoplay Sets or returns whether the audio/video should start playing as soon as it is loaded buffered Returns a TimeRanges object representing the buffered parts of the audio/video controller Returns the MediaController object representing the current media controller of the au dio/video controls Sets or returns whether the audio/video should display controls (like play/pause etc.) crossOrigin Sets or returns the CORS settings of the audio/video currentSrc Returns the URL of the current audio/video currentTime Sets or returns the current playback position in the audio/video (in seconds) defaultMuted Sets or returns whether the audio/video should be muted by default defaultPlaybackRate Sets or returns the default speed of the audio/video playback duration Returns the length of the current audio/video (in seconds) ended Returns whether the playback of the audio/video has ended or not Multimedia WepApp on Tizen - 8 - Property Description error Returns a MediaError object representing the error state of the audio/video loop Sets or returns whether the audio/video should start over again when finished Sets or returns the group the audio/video belongs to (used to link multiple audio/video el mediaGroup ements) muted Sets or returns whether the audio/video is muted or not networkState Returns the current network state of the audio/video paused Returns whether the audio/video is paused or not playbackRate Sets or returns the speed of the audio/video playback played Returns a TimeRanges object representing the played parts of the audio/video preload Sets or returns whether the audio/video should be loaded when the page loads readyState Returns the current ready state of the audio/video seekable Returns a TimeRanges object representing the seekable parts of the audio/video seeking Returns whether the user is currently seeking in the audio/video src Sets or returns the current source of the audio/video element startDate Returns a Date object representing the current time offset textTracks Returns a TextTrackList object representing the available text tracks videoTracks Returns a VideoTrackList object representing the available video tracks volume Sets or returns the volume of the audio/video Multimedia WepApp on Tizen - 9 - − HTML Audio/Video Events Event Description abort Fires when the loading of an audio/video is aborted canplay Fires when the browser can start playing the audio/video Fires when the browser can play through the audio/video without stopping for b canplaythrough uffering durationchange Fires when the duration of the audio/video is changed emptied Fires when the current playlist is empty ended Fires when the current playlist is ended error Fires when an error occurred during the loading of an audio/video loadeddata Fires when the browser has loaded the current frame of the audio/video loadedmetadata Fires when the browser has loaded meta data for the audio/video loadstart Fires when the browser starts looking for the audio/video pause Fires when the audio/video has been paused play Fires when the audio/video has been started or is no longer paused Fires when the audio/video is playing after having been paused or stopped for b playing uffering progress Fires when the browser is downloading the audio/video Multimedia WepApp on Tizen - 10 - Event Description ratechange Fires when the playing speed of the audio/video is changed seeked Fires when the user is finished moving/skipping to a new position in the audio/video seeking Fires when the user starts moving/skipping to a new position in the audio/video stalled Fires when the browser is trying to get media data, but data is not available suspend Fires when the browser is intentionally not getting media data timeupdate Fires when the current playback position has changed

  • Download Media Player Codec Pack Version 4.1 Media Player Codec Pack
    download media player codec pack version 4.1 Media Player Codec Pack. Description: In Microsoft Windows 10 it is not possible to set all file associations using an installer. Microsoft chose to block changes of file associations with the introduction of their Zune players. Third party codecs are also blocked in some instances, preventing some files from playing in the Zune players. A simple workaround for this problem is to switch playback of video and music files to Windows Media Player manually. In start menu click on the "Settings". In the "Windows Settings" window click on "System". On the "System" pane click on "Default apps". On the "Choose default applications" pane click on "Films & TV" under "Video Player". On the "Choose an application" pop up menu click on "Windows Media Player" to set Windows Media Player as the default player for video files. Footnote: The same method can be used to apply file associations for music, by simply clicking on "Groove Music" under "Media Player" instead of changing Video Player in step 4. Media Player Codec Pack Plus. Codec's Explained: A codec is a piece of software on either a device or computer capable of encoding and/or decoding video and/or audio data from files, streams and broadcasts. The word Codec is a portmanteau of ' co mpressor- dec ompressor' Compression types that you will be able to play include: x264 | x265 | h.265 | HEVC | 10bit x265 | 10bit x264 | AVCHD | AVC DivX | XviD | MP4 | MPEG4 | MPEG2 and many more.

  • (A/V Codecs) REDCODE RAW (.R3D) ARRIRAW
    What is a Codec? Codec is a portmanteau of either "Compressor-Decompressor" or "Coder-Decoder," which describes a device or program capable of performing transformations on a data stream or signal. Codecs encode a stream or signal for transmission, storage or encryption and decode it for viewing or editing. Codecs are often used in videoconferencing and streaming media solutions. A video codec converts analog video signals from a video camera into digital signals for transmission. It then converts the digital signals back to analog for display. An audio codec converts analog audio signals from a microphone into digital signals for transmission. It then converts the digital signals back to analog for playing. The raw encoded form of audio and video data is often called essence, to distinguish it from the metadata information that together make up the information content of the stream and any "wrapper" data that is then added to aid access to or improve the robustness of the stream. Most codecs are lossy, in order to get a reasonably small file size. There are lossless codecs as well, but for most purposes the almost imperceptible increase in quality is not worth the considerable increase in data size. The main exception is if the data will undergo more processing in the future, in which case the repeated lossy encoding would damage the eventual quality too much. Many multimedia data streams need to contain both audio and video data, and often some form of metadata that permits synchronization of the audio and video. Each of these three streams may be handled by different programs, processes, or hardware; but for the multimedia data stream to be useful in stored or transmitted form, they must be encapsulated together in a container format.

  • There Are 2 Types of Files in the Graphics World Bit Mapped (RASTER)
    There are 2 Types of Files in the Graphics World Bit Mapped (RASTER) • There are two kinds of computer graphics: Bit Mapped (RASTER) and Object Oriented (VECTOR). Bit mapped graphics are graphics that are stored in the form of a bitmap. They are a sequence of bits that get drawn onto the screen. You create bit mapped graphics using a painting program. • When you enlarge a bit mapped image, you will get a pixelated look. If you are planning to print out an image that was originally 3 inches on 3 inches as 6 inches by 6 inches, you will get a very pixelated look. • Bit mapped graphics tend to create larger files than object oriented graphics. • As you can see from these two pictures, when a bitmapped image gets scaled up, the detail is lost, as opposed to an object oriented drawing where no pixelation occurs. Key Points of Raster Images pixels in a grid resolution dependent resizing reduces quality easily converted restricted to rectangle minimal support for transparency Object Oriented (VECTOR) Definition: Vector graphics are made up of many individual objects. Each of these objects can be defined by mathematical statements and has individual properties assigned to it such as color, fill, and outline. Vector graphics are resolution independent because they can be output to the highest quality at any scale. Software used to create vector graphics is sometimes referred to as object-based editing software. Common vector formats include AI (Adobe Illustrator), CDR (CorelDRAW), CGM (Computer Graphics Metafile), SWF (Shockwave Flash), and DXF (AutoCAD and other CAD software).

    Google Chrome Browser dropping H.264 support 14 January 2011, by John Messina with the codecs already supported by the open Chromium project. Specifically, we are supporting the WebM (VP8) and Theora video codecs, and will consider adding support for other high-quality open codecs in the future. Though H.264 plays an important role in video, as our goal is to enable open innovation, support for the codec will be removed and our resources directed towards completely open codec technologies." Since Google is developing the WebM technology, they can develop a good video standard using open source faster and better than a current standard video player can. The problem with H.264 is that it cost money and On January 11, Google announced that Chrome’s the patents for the technologies in H.264 are held HTML5 video support will change to match codecs by 27 companies, including Apple and Microsoft supported by the open source Chromium project. and controlled by MPEG LA. This makes H.264 Chrome will support the WebM (VP8) and Theora video expensive for content owners and software makers. codecs, and support for the H.264 codec will be removed to allow resources to focus on open codec Since Apple and Microsoft hold some of the technologies. patents for the H.264 technology and make money off the licensing fees, it's in their best interest not to change the technology in their browsers.

Hence, the online gaming and security applications are completely reliant traditional QoS metrics simply fails to analyze the network on the network service quality. Moreover, there are no standard models to map Quality of Service (QoS) into QoE. HTTP measurement’s impact on the end-user service satisfaction. media streaming is primarily used for such applications due The other approach to measure the user-satisfaction is by to its coherence with the Internet and simplified management. direct interaction via subjective assessment. But the downside The most common video codecs used for video streaming are is the time and cost associated with these qualitative subjective H.264/AVC and Google’s VP8. In this paper, we have analyzed assessments and their inability to be applied in real-time the performance of these two codecs from the perspective of QoE.
