Oftentimes, it would be nice to be able to start playing an MP4 file before it's available in its entirety, e.g. because it's streamed over a network connection.
In these cases,
read_mp4fails, because it always tries to read every box it finds as far as I could tell.However, since
moovis the main info box that contains track info, etc, at the minimum this has to be parsed before attempting to decode samples (frames) in a streaming fashion.There even is a hint in a comment in the code about this:
"found moov {}, could stop pure 'moov' parser now"Making these items public facilitates such a use case.
Something like this will be necessary for ruffle-rs/ruffle#14655.
