• Integrating CUDA-based video decoder into libavcodec/ffmpeg

  1er février 2019, par tmlen

  I have a CUDA-based decoder of a video format running on the GPU. I am trying to add a "codec" into libavcodec that uses it as external decoder

  Currenty, I have it working such that I can play a sequence of pictures using ffplay, which
  get decoded on the GPU with the external decoder.

  But with the current implementation, the codec module copies its output (in a RGB24 pixel format) from GPU memory to host memory after each frame, and gives this to libavcodec in its AVFrame. So with this when using ffplay, it will copy the output images back and forth between GPU and host two times (as ffplay has to copy the data to GPU for display).

  My goal is to leave the uncompressed data on GPU using on a CUDA device buffer, and have ffmpeg use it.

  ffmpeg seems to have support for this using AVHWAccel.

  • Is there any example implementation that uses this with a CUDA based decoder (not using the dedicated hardware decoders through NVDEC, CUVID, etc.) ?

  • Does ffmpeg need the output in a pixel format in a CUDA buffer, or can it also be in texture memory, in a CUDA array ?

  • Is it possible to have the hardware decoder as primary decoder of the AVCodec. It seems that hardware-acceleration is foreseen as an add-on, with the software decoder implemented by AVCodec available as fallback ?

  • It seems that ffmpeg will allocate a pool of CUDA buffers to receive its output. Is it also possible to allocate the output buffers oneself in the module’s implementation, and control how many buffers there will be.

  • Is it possible to control with how many CPU threads the decoder will be called ? With the external decoder’s interface, ideal would be one writer thread that pushes compressed codestreams, and one reader thread that pulls the uncompressed output to a CUDA buffer.

  Skip mode search based on reference frame consistency

  This commit enables the encoder to skip NEARMV and ZEROMV if the
  above and left blocks have identical reference frame, and the
  current reference is different from that. It reduces the runtime
  of speed 3 for test sequences :
  bus cif at 1000 kbps 10064 ms -> 9823 ms
  pedestrian 1080p at 2000 kbps 193078 ms -> 189559 ms

  The compression performance is changed by
  derf -0.085%
  stdhd -0.103%

• random_seed : Rewrite the generic clock() based seed code

  11 juin 2012, par Michael Niedermayer

  random_seed : Rewrite the generic clock() based seed code
  The new code is faster and reuses the previous state in case of
  
  multiple calls.
  The previous code could easily end up in near-infinite loops,
  
  if the difference between two clock() calls never was larger than
  
  1.
  This makes fate-parseutils finish in finite time when run in wine,
  
  if CryptGenRandom isn’t available (which e.g. isn’t available if
  
  targeting Windows RT/metro).
  Patch originally by Michael Niedermayer but with some modifications
  
  by Martin Storsjö.
