• SharedLib dependency @ Mixed mode APK

  6 mars 2016, par NadavRub
  1. I am building a mixed mode Android project, the project is using the native ffmpeg
  2. The Libs are
     2.1. libavutil.so -> libavutil.so.51
     2.2. libavcodec.so -> libavcodec.so.54
     2.3. libavformat.so -> libavformat.so.54
     
  3. My Java code include the following JNI section to load the native libs :
     static
      System.loadLibrary("avutil") ;
      System.loadLibrary("avcodec") ;
      System.loadLibrary("avformat") ;
     
     
  4. ’libavcodec.so’ depends on ’libavutil.so.51’ AND NOT on ’libavutil.so’.
     
  5. When running my activity System.loadLibrary("avcodec") ; excepts with "could not load needed library ’libavutil.so.51’ for ’libavcodec.so’ (Library ’libavutil.so.51’ not found)"
  6. On my Android.mk I have the following section to have the native libs added to the APK :
     
     include $(CLEAR_VARS)
     LOCAL_MODULE := mylib
     LOCAL_SRC_FILES := ../../../mylib/libmylib.so
     include $(PREBUILT_SHARED_LIBRARY)
     
     
  7. replacing libmylib.so with libmylib.so.%some number% cause the build to fail with [LOCAL_SRC_FILES should point to a file ending with ".so"]
     
     
     Having the above in mind, how can I have libavcodec loading w/o the dependency problem ?
     
     • Can I fix libavcodec.so dependency to point to libavutil.so and not to libavutil.so.51 ?
       
     • Can I change Android.mk so it will be able to pack libavutil.so.51 ( non .SO extention ) ? will it then be loadable using ’System.loadLibrary’ ?.
       
       Any help will be appreciated !!!

• How to encode a video from several images generated in a C++ program without writing the separate frame images to disk ?

  29 janvier 2016, par ksb496

  I am writing a C++ code where a sequence of N different frames is generated after performing some operations implemented therein. After each frame is completed, I write it on the disk as IMG_%d.png, and finally I encode them to a video through ffmpeg using the x264 codec.

  The summarized pseudocode of the main part of the program is the following one :

  std::vector<int> B(width*height*3);
  
  for (i=0; i/ void generateframe(std::vector<int> &amp;, int)
  
    generateframe(B, i); // Returns different images for different i values.
  
    sprintf(s, "IMG_%d.png", i+1);
  
    WriteToDisk(B, s); // void WriteToDisk(std::vector<int>, char[])
  
  }
  
  </int></int></int>

  The problem of this implementation is that the number of desired frames, N, is usually high (N 100000) as well as the resolution of the pictures (1920x1080), resulting into an overload of the disk, producing write cycles of dozens of GB after each execution.

  In order to avoid this, I have been trying to find documentation about parsing directly each image stored in the vector B to an encoder such as x264 (without having to write the intermediate image files to the disk). Albeit some interesting topics were found, none of them solved specifically what I exactly want to, as many of them concern the execution of the encoder with existing images files on the disk, whilst others provide solutions for other programming languages such as Python (here you can find a fully satisfactory solution for that platform).

  The pseudocode of what I would like to obtain is something similar to this :

  std::vector<int> B(width*height*3);
  
  video_file=open_video("Generated_Video.mp4", ...[encoder options]...);
  
  for (i=0; icode></int>

  According to what I have read on related topics, the x264 C++ API might be able to do this, but, as stated above, I did not find a satisfactory answer for my specific question. I tried learning and using directly the ffmpeg source code, but both its low ease of use and compilation issues forced me to discard this possibility as a mere non-professional programmer I am (I take it as just as a hobby and unluckily I cannot waste that many time learning something so demanding).

  Another possible solution that came to my mind is to find a way to call the ffmpeg binary file in the C++ code, and somehow manage to transfer the image data of each iteration (stored in B) to the encoder, letting the addition of each frame (that is, not "closing" the video file to write) until the last frame, so that more frames can be added until reaching the N-th one, where the video file will be "closed". In other words, call ffmpeg.exe through the C++ program to write the first frame to a video, but make the encoder "wait" for more frames. Then call again ffmpeg to add the second frame and make the encoder "wait" again for more frames, and so on until reaching the last frame, where the video will be finished. However, I do not know how to proceed or if it is actually possible.

  Edit 1 :

  As suggested in the replies, I have been documenting about named pipes and tried to use them in my code. First of all, it should be remarked that I am working with Cygwin, so my named pipes are created as they would be created under Linux. The modified pseudocode I used (including the corresponding system libraries) is the following one :

  FILE *fd;
  
  mkfifo("myfifo", 0666);
  
  
  
  for (i=0; i/ void WriteToPipe(std::vector<int>, FILE *&amp;fd)
  
    fflush(fd);
  
    fd=fclose("myfifo");
  
  }
  
  unlink("myfifo");
  
  </int>

  WriteToPipe is a slight modification of the previous WriteToFile function, where I made sure that the write buffer to send the image data is small enough to fit the pipe buffering limitations.

  Then I compile and write the following command in the Cygwin terminal :

  ./myprogram | ffmpeg -i pipe:myfifo -c:v libx264 -preset slow -crf 20 Video.mp4

  However, it remains stuck at the loop when i=0 at the "fopen" line (that is, the first fopen call). If I had not called ffmpeg it would be natural as the server (my program) would be waiting for a client program to connect to the "other side" of the pipe, but it is not the case. It looks like they cannot be connected through the pipe somehow, but I have not been able to find further documentation in order to overcome this issue. Any suggestion ?

• Best way for stream videos on web [on hold]

  13 février 2016, par Amir

  I am working on video-sharing website and looking for Appropriate way to stream videos because all users can send video in my site. I wonder which way is best to stream all videos like YouTube, compatible with all speed and all the qualities and can change quality . breathed apple hls finally arrived, but the only problem is that for the video to the must take into consideration multiple video files . ffmpeg seagment that the server takes up this much volume.

  The second way that came to my mind is live transcoding. It does not change its quality by changing the speed of video, but this version was with JavaScript wrote such a thing. Speed and space as large as any video website YouTube will be more suitable, but when I thought this was the way all the server and does not work. Most importantly, when you upload a video to YouTube you see it say the process is completed so it means YouTube will not use this method. I think YouTube very easy to convert several formats witout seagment . change the quality generated script that was said !!

  In your opinion, when is the most appropriate way ?!
  Thankful
