WebM VP8 Codec SDK
error_resilient.c

Error Resiliency Features

This is an example demonstrating how to enable the error resiliency features of the codec.

Configuration

Error resiliency is controlled by the g_error_resilient member of the configuration structure.

<br />/* Enable error resilient mode */
cfg.g_error_resilient = 1;

Observing The Effects

Use the decode_with_drops example to decode with frames 5-10 dropped. Compare the output for a file encoded with this example versus one encoded with the simple_encoder example.
