# mcfs

Multimedia container file system.

Someday this might end up as a 9p filesystem for various video
container formats so other programs (vidya players) can identify
formats and extract streams properly.

For now I'm trying not to go crazy while reading ISO specs.  It hasn't
been easy so far.

## Status

The code looks horrible.

It's not a filesystem yet, but it can extract video streams (as IVF)
and audio streams (only AAC atm).

MP4 container format is too complex to ever state it is _supported_ by
this program.  So far at least some of the videos downloaded from
youtube are supported.
