1. Executive Summary MP4 (MPEG-4 Part 14) is a container format widely used for video, audio, and subtitles. Unlike simple byte streams, MP4 is structured as a hierarchy of atoms (boxes) . Developing an "index of MP4" means building a system to parse these atoms, extract metadata, and create a queryable index enabling fast search, seeking, or content analysis without scanning entire files. def parse_moov(self, offset): # Traverse to stbl, extract

self.build_frame_index(stts, stss, stsc, stco, stsz) Unlike simple byte streams, MP4 is structured as

def build_frame_index(self, stts, stss, stsc, stco, stsz): # Expand run-length encoded time deltas # Map each sample to its chunk and byte offset # Mark keyframes using stss # Append to self.sample_index CREATE TABLE files ( id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, path TEXT UNIQUE, duration REAL, width INTEGER, height INTEGER, codec TEXT, bitrate INTEGER, hash_sha256 TEXT ); CREATE TABLE frames ( file_id INTEGER, frame_num INTEGER, timestamp REAL, offset INTEGER, size INTEGER, is_keyframe BOOLEAN, FOREIGN KEY(file_id) REFERENCES files(id) );
