Subject: [FFmpeg-devel] [GSoC 2026] Qualification Task – SubViewer Decoder Patch

Hello FFmpeg Developers,
My name is Nariman, and I am applying for GSoC 2026 for the EIA-608 Closed
Captions Modernization project.
As a Qualification Task, I have fixed a small bug in FFmpeg’s SubViewer
subtitle decoder by adding a null pointer check in the function
`subviewer_decode_frame`. This demonstrates my ability to read FFmpeg code,
understand its APIs, and safely apply changes.
Please find my patch attached:
Attachment: 0001-avcodec-subviewerdec-add-null-pointer-check-in-subvi.patch
I am eager to contribute to the EIA-608 project, learn about digital video
fundamentals, and improve FFmpeg’s Closed Captions code base.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Best regards,
Nariman
