The workaround for https://github.com/Intel-Media-SDK/MediaSDK/issues/1139
is required for vp8 only, so move this workaround to the corresponding
postinit_decoder function
The pipeline below works with this change
gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=SA10104.vc1 ! \
'video/x-wmv,profile=(string)advanced',width=720,height=480,framerate=14/1 ! \
msdkvc1dec ! fakesink
MFXVideoDECODE_DecodeHeader only parses the sequence layer for VC1, so
the structure is unknown for a stream with interlace flag set in the
sequence layer. If forcing the struct to progressive in this plugin,
MediaSDK will fail to decode such streams.
It is possible MFXVideoDECODE_DecodeFrameAsync returns MFX_ERR_INCOMPATIBLE_VIDEO_PARAM
and this error can't be recovered by retrying MFXVideoDECODE_DecodeFrameAsync
in some cases, so we need to limit the number of retries to avoid infinite loop.
This fixes https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-bad/issues/909
To drain all queued encoding items, encoder should gracefully
wait the encoding thread without stealing queued items.
Otherwise, some input frames can be dropped.
../subprojects/gst-plugins-bad/sys/msdk/msdk.c(61): error C2065: 'MFX_FOURCC_RGB565'
The minimum required version for the format seems to MFX_VERSION >= 1028
Returning MFX_ERR_INCOMPATIBLE_VIDEO_PARAM from
MFXVideoDECODE_DecodeFrameAsync means the allocated mfx surface is not
suitable for the current frame, we need a new mfx surface and try
MFXVideoDECODE_DecodeFrameAsync again.
When MFXVideoDECODE_DecodeFrameAsync () returns MFX_WRN_DEVICE_BUSY with
an output surface, a new input surface is required when retrying
MFXVideoDECODE_DecodeFrameAsync ().
This fixes the out-of-surface issue mentioned in
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-bad/issues/890
This gets rid of annoying message in the log, e.g. run the pipeline
below:
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc num-buffers=100 ! \
video/x-raw,format=NV12,width=352,height=288 ! msdkh264enc ! filesink \
location=test.h264
[LIBVA]:CRITICAL - DdiMedia_DestroyImage:4357: Invalid image
This make the pipeline below works:
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc num-buffers=1 ! msdkvpp ! \
video/x-raw,format=UYVY ! filesink location=a.yuv
Once https://github.com/intel/media-driver/pull/526 in the media-driver
is merged, the pipeline below also works:
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc num-buffers=1 ! msdkvpp ! \
video/x-raw\(memory:DMABuf\),format=UYVY ! filesink location=a.yuv
The VCD source was ported in 2014 (commit 89eb1e9), but the necessary
"cdxaparse" plugin, which is used to "Parse a .dat file (VCD) into
raw mpeg1" was never ported.
This means that the probable main user for the feature, totem, hasn't
actually been able to play back VCDs, since 2012, when it switched to
using GStreamer 1.0.
Note that even if cdxaparse was finally ported, a lot of work would
still be necessary before it is considered usable. Notably, it is
missing disc image support [1] and some VCDs just cannot be opened for
reading [2].
