AMR support in AVI

Hi all,
I have some doubts over AVI file format.
* will AVI container support amr-nb or amr-wb codecs?
* all open DML AVI file will contain RIFF AVIX in it.if so what are the
fields inside that....... ( becoz ,i don't have any open DML avi file with
RIFF AVIX List init.can somebody tell the site to download such files or
converter to get open DML file with RIFF AVIX).

I will be if some one replies in this regard.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Sharanu,
Ya,the 'idx1' in AVI 1.0 is for the purpose of exactly what u said.But
if the file is open DML,then it contains ix## also, which in turn contains
information regarding whether the frame is key frame or not .so we don't
need idx1 in such cases.The opendml specs also tell nothing about this.

Regards
Gomathi.

Hi Gomathi,
Actually the 'idx1' chunk is optional.This list is used to make AVI
playback and seeks more efficient because the location of each frame
of video can be found without scanning through each sub-chunk of the
LIST movi data. So I beleive, the basic purpose of 'idx1' is for
seeking.
The document I had sent earlier has some explaination regarding
the indexes.

Sharanu

Hi Sharanu,
Thanks for your reply.
I need some clarification.
1.for the first part i.e whether it supports AMR or not i couldn't get the
exact
result from the linkas the link to ACM doesn't exit
2.Regarding 2nd point i'm clear now as the RIFF AVIX will contain only the
'movi' init.so no problem while dealing
with it.

If the file have both ix00 and idx1 (i have files with both of this) form
where to fetch the address and size
For eg,let us assume the file contains 2 streams. So it will have ix00
having offset n size of 1st stream
and ix01 which has the offset n size of 2nd stream.again at the end of the
file there is 'idx1' with offset n size of both streams.so from where we
should take the values.if it is from ix## then what is the purpose of
'idx1'.

Dear Gomathi,
The following link might help you regarding the first part of your doubt.
http://www.cse.mrt.ac.lk/lecnotes/cs5414/papers/AV%20Encoding/Comparison_of_
container_formats.htm

I had made some work on AVI(old ver) sometime back. Regarding Open DML AVI,
I could just find this
apart from the pdf file attached. I could not get any standard OpenDML avi
files.
