Project name and homepage: VideoLAN (VLC media player) and taglib
Assignment
Original assignment was to do one of following enhancements on VLC.
Add MP3 chapters support (ticket #7485)
Improve Windows Media Center IR Remote Controller support (requested feature link)
However, on WMC IR remote controller support is nothing to improve, so I focused on adding MP3 chapter support. Chapter informations in MP3 files are stored in ID3 tags and VLC uses open-source library taglib for parsing these tags. However, taglib is currently unable to read these information, so the assignment was changed to following.
- Add CHAP and CTOC frame support into taglib (issue #81)
Links documenting the results of my work
- My communication with VLC developers (concerning MP3 chapters support) in a public mailing list archive
- My communication with taglib developers in a public mailing list archive
- Version control repository with the actual state of my work on taglib
- My pull request in the taglib project repository
