  * type:  defect => task


Comment:

 1) This is more of a code-review (''i.e.'' task) than a defect.
 [[BR]]
 2) I thought I would look at FFMPEG's code for direction. It also uses
 several different techniques, like;
 be2me_32(ff_get_fourcc("mjpg")), MKBETAG('m','j','p','g'),  MKTAG('m',
 'j', 'p', 'b'), mmioFOURCC('Z','L','I','B')
 3) I am still undecided if fourcc.h should have integer constants (fast to
 compile, but endian issues), or use macros (easy to read). Time to flip a
 coin?
