• Restrict bandwidth usage in cloud game server

  13 décembre 2012, par Nandy

  I am working on cloud game server development.

  During the testing of some games, there is a spike observed of around 10 MBps. Normally game consumes 4 6 MBps network bandwidth.

  Is there any way to keep consumed bandwidth <5 MBps without much affecting video quality ?

  720p resolution is being used. We are using x264 encoder, are there any params of this encoder which may help me out to achieve expected o/p ?

• Theatrical quality ffmpeg/x264 encoding of a high-motion 1080p video

  2 décembre 2011, par Ian

  I've been struggling with encoding videos using FFMPEG and x264. The output stutters when played back in Quicktime, while in VLC it shows a lot of compression artifacts at the same places Quicktime stutters. So it seems like Quicktime is stuttering because it's trying to suppress the corruption/artifacts.

  The videos have a lot of random motion in them, including frames where 75% of the pixels will change at a random interval (the video is software generated so it's truly pseudo-random). The compression seems to be choking in these places where it's likely detecting a "scene cut" incorrectly. It also seems to choke at regular intervals where I guess it's doing a keyframe.

  I've based my encoding preset off of the x264-hq preset that comes with FFMPEG. I've tried turning off scene cut detection, and playing with the keyint/g and keyint_min options. Setting g to 1 makes it work, but blows out the filesize. I've tried the lossless presets, but they won't playback at all in Quicktime. Oddly, I haven't had any problems when working with a lower-resolution test video (1440x810).

  Here's the preset I have right now, which works, but yields a file that's approximately 60% larger than the (non-working) hq preset yields. Is there any way to improve upon this ? The filesize doesn't matter much, I just want something that will playback anywhere and be very high quality.

• Why doesn't this FFmpeg code create a video from a series of images ?

  20 octobre 2011, par user551117

  I have successfully compiled the FFmpeg library for use in an iOS application. I would like to use it for encoding a video from a series of images, but I can't seem to make it work.

  The following is the code that I am using to encode this video :

  AVCodec *codec;
  
  AVCodecContext *c= NULL;
  
  int i, out_size, size, outbuf_size;
  
  FILE *f;
  
  AVFrame *picture;
  
  uint8_t *outbuf;
  
  
  
  printf("Video encoding\n");
  
  
  
  /// find the mpeg video encoder
  
  codec=avcodec_find_encoder(CODEC_ID_MPEG4);
  
  //codec = avcodec_find_encoder(CODEC_ID_MPEG4);
  
  if (!codec) {
  
      fprintf(stderr, "codec not found\n");
  
      exit(1);
  
  }
  
  
  
  c= avcodec_alloc_context();
  
  picture= avcodec_alloc_frame();
  
  
  
  // put sample parameters 
  
  c->bit_rate = 400000;
  
  /// resolution must be a multiple of two 
  
  c->width = 320;
  
  c->height = 480;
  
  //frames per second 
  
  c->time_base= (AVRational){1,25};
  
  c->gop_size = 10; /// emit one intra frame every ten frames
  
  c->max_b_frames=1;
  
  c->pix_fmt = PIX_FMT_YUV420P;
  
  
  
  //open it
  
  if (avcodec_open(c, codec) < 0) {
  
      fprintf(stderr, "could not open codec\n");
  
      exit(1);
  
  }
  
  
  
  f = fopen([[NSTemporaryDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:filename] UTF8String], "w");
  
  if (!f) {
  
      fprintf(stderr, "could not open %s\n",[filename UTF8String]);
  
      exit(1);
  
  }
  
  
  
  // alloc image and output buffer
  
  outbuf_size = 100000;
  
  outbuf = malloc(outbuf_size);
  
  size = c->width * c->height;
  
  
  
  #pragma mark -
  
  AVFrame* outpic = avcodec_alloc_frame();
  
  int nbytes = avpicture_get_size(PIX_FMT_YUV420P, c->width, c->height);
  
  
  
  //create buffer for the output image
  
  uint8_t* outbuffer = (uint8_t*)av_malloc(nbytes);
  
  
  
  #pragma mark -  
  
  for(i=1;i<48;i++) {
  
      fflush(stdout);
  
  
  
      int numBytes = avpicture_get_size(PIX_FMT_YUV420P, c->width, c->height);
  
      uint8_t *buffer = (uint8_t *)av_malloc(numBytes*sizeof(uint8_t));
  
  
  
      UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d.png", i]];
  
      CGImageRef newCgImage = [image CGImage];
  
  
  
      CGDataProviderRef dataProvider = CGImageGetDataProvider(newCgImage);
  
      CFDataRef bitmapData = CGDataProviderCopyData(dataProvider);
  
      buffer = (uint8_t *)CFDataGetBytePtr(bitmapData);   
  
  
  
      avpicture_fill((AVPicture*)picture, buffer, PIX_FMT_RGB24, c->width, c->height);
  
      avpicture_fill((AVPicture*)outpic, outbuffer, PIX_FMT_YUV420P, c->width, c->height);
  
  
  
      struct SwsContext* fooContext = sws_getContext(c->width, c->height, 
  
                                                     PIX_FMT_RGB24, 
  
                                                     c->width, c->height, 
  
                                                     PIX_FMT_YUV420P, 
  
                                                     SWS_FAST_BILINEAR, NULL, NULL, NULL);
  
  
  
      //perform the conversion
  
      sws_scale(fooContext, picture->data, picture->linesize, 0, c->height, outpic->data, outpic->linesize);
  
      // Here is where I try to convert to YUV
  
  
  
      // encode the image
  
  
  
      out_size = avcodec_encode_video(c, outbuf, outbuf_size, outpic);
  
      printf("encoding frame %3d (size=%5d)\n", i, out_size);
  
      fwrite(outbuf, 1, out_size, f);
  
  
  
      free(buffer);
  
      buffer = NULL;      
  
  
  
  }
  
  
  
  // get the delayed frames
  
  for(; out_size; i++) {
  
      fflush(stdout);
  
  
  
      out_size = avcodec_encode_video(c, outbuf, outbuf_size, NULL);
  
      printf("write frame %3d (size=%5d)\n", i, out_size);
  
      fwrite(outbuf, 1, outbuf_size, f);      
  
  }
  
  
  
  // add sequence end code to have a real mpeg file
  
  outbuf[0] = 0x00;
  
  outbuf[1] = 0x00;
  
  outbuf[2] = 0x01;
  
  outbuf[3] = 0xb7;
  
  fwrite(outbuf, 1, 4, f);
  
  fclose(f);
  
  free(outbuf);
  
  
  
  avcodec_close(c);
  
  av_free(c);
  
  av_free(picture);
  
  printf("\n");

  What could be wrong with this code ?
