Hi All,

I want to change the motion estimation algorithm in the reference software. There are several ME alg choices but I have my own algorithm and want to implement in the reference software to compare its performance. Has anyone played around with the code? If so then please provide me some details so that I can have a head start in implementing my alg. I already implemented my alg in Matlab and tested it and it works like a charm, much faster than the ones implemented in H.264 (full search, MVFAST, EPZS, etc...). Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks all!!

the reference software is very messy. It is probably easier to use x264 as codebase.

Where can I get x264 from? and can you elaborate a little bit more about it. Thanks for replying to my post.
