[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] provide an input parameter to specify 3d stereo format for mkv/webm 3d videos

[Alok Ahuja]

Thanks for the feedback. I've updated the patch with recommendations.

Some comments
* This patch only addresses the StereoMode tag which is shared by both mkv
and webm. We can look at enabling TrackOperation in a subsequent patch.
* I'm not sure of an inherent need to provide demux support for the same tag
since it is up to a specific implementation as to how they would operate on
the StereoMode tag. For example, Firefox uses it to render 3D WebM videos.
* Have multiple video tracks containing StereoMode tags within a single
container does not seem like a valid use-case. Therefore, it should be ok to
limit the input to a single stereo_mode parameter.
