2  * qt-faststart.c, v0.2
3  * by Mike Melanson (melanson@pcisys.net)
4  * This file is placed in the public domain. Use the program however you
5  * see fit.
6  *
7  * This utility rearranges a Quicktime file such that the moov atom
8  * is in front of the data, thus facilitating network streaming.
9  *
10  * To compile this program, start from the base directory from which you
11  * are building FFmpeg and type:
12  * make tools/qt-faststart
13  * The qt-faststart program will be built in the tools/ directory. If you
14  * do not build the program in this manner, correct results are not
15  * guaranteed, particularly on 64-bit platforms.
16  * Invoke the program with:
17  * qt-faststart <infile.mov> <outfile.mov>
18  *
19  * Notes: Quicktime files can come in many configurations of top-level
20  * atoms. This utility stipulates that the very last atom in the file needs
21  * to be a moov atom. When given such a file, this utility will rearrange
22  * the top-level atoms by shifting the moov atom from the back of the file
23  * to the front, and patch the chunk offsets along the way. This utility
24  * presently only operates on uncompressed moov atoms.
