1. The iOS create_surface implementation needs to call out to the main
thread to create the window (UIKit requirement)
2. get_surface() can be called and will attempt to create the VkSurface
from an invalid view/layer.
Also pass the layer for MoltenVK so we don't get pesky 'UIView function
not called on main thread' warnings.
For some hevc 10bit 4K encoding cases, the encoding process may be
slow, and MediaSDK surface can't be released in time before one other
available surface is needed. So add an extra surface for hevc encoding
to avoid this issue.
Internal sources seem to be rtp streams we are sending whereas
non-internal sources are the rtp streams we are receiving. Redo the
statistics with that in mind.
If the last flow was not GST_FLOW_OK, the encoding thread is not running
and there is nothing to pop from GAsyncQueue (this causes deadlock).
To prevent deadlock, just return the handle_frame without further encoding
process if the last flow was not GST_FLOW_OK. Note that the last flow
will be cleared per FLUSH_STOP and STREAM_START event.
The hard-coded upper bound 32 (or 48 depending on resolution) might waste
GPU memory and high resolution encoding causes OUT-OF-MEMORY allocation error
quite easily. This commit calculates the number of required pre-allocated
device memory based on encoding options and it can reduce the amount of device memory
used by nvenc.
NVDEC driver always uses input timestamp without adjustment
even if bframe encoding was enabled.
So DTS can be larger than PTS when bframe was enabled.
To ensure PTS >= DTS, we should adjust the timestamp manually
based on the PTS difference between the first
encoded frame and the second one. That's also the maximum PTS/DTS
difference.
To support rc-lookahead and bframe encoding, nvenc needs one more
staging queue, because NvEncEncodePicture can return NV_ENC_ERR_NEED_MORE_INPUT
but which was not considered so far.
As documented by NVENC programming guide, pending buffers should wait
other inputs until NvEncEncodePicture returns success.
New encoding flow is
- Submit raw picture buffer to encoder with NvEncEncodePicture
- The submitted input/output buffer pair will be queued to pending_queue
- If NvEncEncodePicture returned success, then move all pair in pending_queue
to final stage
- Otherwise, wait more input raw pictures.
Another change is dropping NV_ENC_LOCK_INPUT_BUFFER usage.
So now nvenc always uses CUDA memory input buffer. As a result,
both opengl and system memory handling are unified.
* The number of iteration is always one so the iteration is useless
and that makes code complicated.
* Also defining named structure can code mroe readable.
* g_free is null safe
New rate-control modes are introduced (if device can support)
* cbr-ld-hr: CBR low-delay high quality
* cbr-hq: CBR high quality
* vbr-hq: VBR high quality
Also, various configurable rate-control related properties are added.
Introducing new dynamic class between GstNvBaseEncClass and
each subclass to be able to access device specific properties and
capabilities from each subclass implementation side.
Add new macro for sink/src pad template to ensure no DMABuf caps
features are exposed on Windows. Some DMABuf caps features
were not handled by the commit 9ec62418c3
gst_buffer_make_writable() requires exclusive reference to the
GstMemory so the _make_writable() for the msdk buffer will result
to fallback system memory copy, because the msdk memory were initialized
with GST_MEMORY_FLAG_NO_SHARE flag.
Note that, disable sharing GstMemory brings high overhead but actually
the msdk memory objects can be shared over multiple buffers.
If the memory is not shareable, newly added GstAllocator::mem_copy will
create copied msdk memory.
Sometimes a HEVC/H265 stream doesn't have a valid profile but MSDK can
handle this stream. Like vaapih265dec, msdkh265dec may advertise the sink
caps without profile
Fix gst_event_new_seek call in gst-libs/gst/player/gstplayer.c
If rate >= 0.0, then previous code doesn't set end of segment. So, the end of segment
will be in place where previous seek put it. This is not neccesary end of media file
(in case of reverse playback). So if we play video backward for some time and then
switched to forward playing, we will get EOS somewhere in the middle of media file.
This commit always sets end of segment, thus fixing this bug
DecodedOrder was deprecated in msdk-2017 version, but some customers
still use this for low-latency streaming of non-b-frame encoded streams,
which needs to output the frame at once
