The goal of this project is to code a software library (it can be either a VC++ dll or .NET Class library) that allows the user to call it to convert a video file (including audio/video) that is in any format supported by the installed system codecs to MPEG-1 or MPEG-2.
This is, convert FROM any supported system format TO MPEG-1 or MPEG-2, depending on what is requested.
As an example, the signature of the function this library exports should look like this:
convertVideo([in] string inputFile, [in] string outputFile, [in] int targetVideoFormat, [in] struct mpeg_parameters parameters, [out] int result, [out] string errorMessage);
A command line application that uses this library must be provided too.
