The SVT-HEVC (Scalable Video Technology[0] for HEVC) Encoder is an
open source video coding technology[1] that is highly optimized for
Intel Xeon Scalable processors and Intel Xeon D processors.

According to H264 ITU standards from 06/19, GST_H264_PROFILE_HIGH_422
(profile_idc = 122) with constraint_set1_flag = 0 and
constraint_set3_flag = 0 can be mapped to high-4:2:2 or high-4:4:4.
GST_H264_PROFILE_HIGH_422 with constraint_set1_flag = 0 and
constraint_set3_flag = 1 can be mapped to high-4:2:2, high-4:4:4,
high-4:2:2-intra or high-4:4:4-intra.
Weak refs don't quite work here correctly as there is always a race with
taking the lock between find_view() and remove_view(). If find_view()
returns a view that is going to removed by remove_view() then we have an
interesting situation.
In theory, the number and type of views for an image are relatively
constant and should not change one they've been set up which means that
it is actually practical to perform pool-like reference counting here
where the image holds a pool of different views that it can give out
as necessary.
Current code would change any non-ok return from gst_pad_push to
GST_FLOW_ERROR, thus hiding meaningful returns such as GST_FLOW_EOS.
Tests also added.
Exposure mode property, extra colour tone values (aqua, emboss, sketch, neon), extra scene modes (backlight, flowers, AR, HDR).
Missing vmethods for exposure mode, analog gain, lens focus, colour temperature, min & max exposure time

To allow curlhttpsrc to support DASH streams that use the on-demand
profile, it needs to support HTTP Range GETs. In GStreamer, the RANGE
is specified by issuing a GST_FORMAT_BYTES seek to set the start and
end of the range. curlhttpsrc needs to implement seek and set the
appropriate curl options to make it add the Range header to the
request.
Sometimes, one wants to force a clock on some pipelines - for instance,
when testing TSN related pipelines, one usually uses GstPtpClock or
CLOCK_REALTIME (assuming system realtime clock is in sync with network
one). Until now, one needs to write an application for that - not
difficult, but quite boring if one just wants to test something. This
patch presents a new element to help that: clockselect.
clockselect is a pipeline with two properties to select a clock. One
property, "clock-id", enables one to choose between "monotonic",
"realtime", "ptp" or "default" clock - where default keeps pipeline
behaviour of choosing a clock based on its elements. The other property,
"ptp-domain" gives one the choice of which PTP domain should be used.
Some very simple tests also added for this new element.
This adds two properties:
* scte-35-pid: If not 0, enables the SCTE-35 support for the current
program. This will write the proper PMT and send SCTE-35 NULL
commands (i.e. heartbeats) at a regular interval
* scte-35-null-interval: This specifies the interval at which the
NULL commands should be sent
Sending SCTE-35 commands is done by creating the appropriate SCTE-35
GstMpegtsSection and then sending them on the muxer. See the
associated example
x265 does not allow user to configure a picture size smaller than
at least one CU size, and maxCUSize must be 16, 32, or 64.
Therefore, the CU size must be set according to the input resolution,
and the input resolution can not be less than 16.
... and add our stub cuda header.
Newly introduced stub cuda.h file is defining minimal types in order to
build nvcodec plugin without system installed CUDA toolkit dependency.
This will make cross-compile possible.
... and put them into new nvcodec plugin.
* nvcodec plugin
Now each nvenc and nvdec element is moved to be a part of nvcodec plugin
for better interoperability.
Additionally, cuda runtime API header dependencies
(i.e., cuda_runtime_api.h and cuda_gl_interop.h) are removed.
Note that cuda runtime APIs have prefix "cuda". Since 1.16 release with
Windows support, only "cuda.h" and "cudaGL.h" dependent symbols have
been used except for some defined types. However, those types could be
replaced with other types which were defined by "cuda.h".
* dynamic library loading
CUDA library will be opened with g_module_open() instead of build-time linking.
On Windows, nvcuda.dll is installed to system path by CUDA Toolkit
installer, and on *nix, user should ensure that libcuda.so.1 can be
loadable (i.e., via LD_LIBRARY_PATH or default dlopen path)
Therefore, NVIDIA_VIDEO_CODEC_SDK_PATH env build time dependency for Windows
is removed.
This patch adds the infrastructure to test AVTP plugin elements. It also
adds a test case to check avtpaafpay element basic functionality. The
test consists in setting the element sink caps and properties, and
verifying if the output buffer is set as expected.
