[FFmpeg-devel] Where to byte swap?

[Gavin Kinsey]

I have some old code I'm trying to beat into a shape suitable for merging 
into ffmpeg for supporting some CCTV formats.  Currently there is a custom 
audio codec, but after much reworking to simplify the code I've realised it 
is actually just a big endian version of ADPCM_IMA_WAV

So I think it would be better to just reverse the endianness of the data and 
set the codec to ADPCM_IMA_WAV.  The question is where to do this?

The byte swapped version currently only ever occurs in our custom containers 
so I could do it in the demuxer.  But I recently saw stuff on the ML that 
made me think implementing a parser might be the "proper" way to do it.

Suggestions?
