Commit a1584b6 caused big performance drop if the downstream element
is not a msdk element because it is very slow to read data from video
memory directly.
This reverts commit a1584b6f99.
If 8 bit are required by the device/mode then it will be converted internally
by the SDK, but the SDK won't automatically convert from 8 to 10 bit. As
such, always use 10 bit VANC.
Some devices require configuring also a 10 bit video format when using
10 bit VANC is required but those would fail regardless and the
application would have to configure the correct video format.
With newer versions of the SDK this information can be retrieved via the
BMDDeckLinkVANCRequires10BitYUVVideoFrames flag but we don't use a new
enough SDK version yet to extract this information.
Although the target platform of D3D11 decoding API are both desktop and UWP app,
DXVA header is blocked by "WINAPI_FAMILY_PARTITION(WINAPI_PARTITION_DESKTOP)"
which is meaning that that's only for desktop app.
To workaround this inconsistent annoyingness, we need to define WINAPI_PARTITION_DESKTOP
regardless of target WinAPI partition.
The codec profile should be consistent with the frame fourcc code, this
fixes pipeline below:
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! \
video/x-raw,width=320,height=240,format=P010_10LE ! msdkvp9enc ! \
fakesink
The frame width and height is rounded up to 128 and 32 since commit
8daac1c, so the width, height for initialization should be rounded up to
128 and 32 too because the MSDK VP9 encoder will do some check on width
and height.
Sample pipeline:
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! \
video/x-raw,width=320,height=240,format=NV12 ! msdkvp9enc ! fakesink
Renegotiation was implemented for bitrate change. We can re-use
the same sequence when video info changes except that this can be
executed right away when receiving the new input format. I.e. no
need to wait for the next call to handle_frame.
The block that sets use_video_memory flag is after the
the condition `if gst_msdk_context_prepare` but it
always returns false when there is no other msdk elements.
So the decoder ends up with use_video_memory as FALSE.
Note that msdkvpp always set use_video_memory as TRUE.
When use_video_memory is FALSE then the msdkdec allocates
the output frames with posix_memalign (see gstmsdksystemmemory.c).
The result is then copied back to the GstVideoPool's buffers
(or to the downstream pool's buffers if any).
When use_video_memory is TRUE then the msdkdec uses vaCreateSurfaces
to create vaapi surfaces for the hw decoder to decode into
(see gstmsdkvideomemory.c). The result is then copied to either
the internal GstVideoPool and to the downstream pool if any.
(vaDeriveImage/vaMapBuffer is used in order to read the surfaces)
Use boolean instead of GstFlowReturn as declared.
Note that since base class does not check return value of GstVideoDecoder::flush(),
this would not cause any change of behavior.

is trying to use video memory for decoding on Linux, which reveals a
hidden bug in msdkdec.
For video memory, it is possible that a locked mfx surface is not used
indeed and it will be un-locked later in MSDK, so we have to check the
associated MSDK surface to find out and free un-used surfaces, otherwise
it is easy to exhaust all pre-allocated mfx surfaces and get errors below:
0:00:00.777324879 27290 0x564b65a510a0 ERROR default

failed to create new MSDK memory
Note the sample code in MSDK does similar thing in
CBuffering::SyncFrameSurfaces()
A ID3D11Texture2D memory can consist of multiple planes with array.
For array typed memory, GstD3D11Allocator will allocate new GstD3D11Memory
with increased reference count to the ID3D11Texture2D but different array index.
Even if one of downstream d3d11 elements can support dynamic-usage memory,
another one might not support it. Also, to support dynamic-usage,
both upstream and downstream d3d11device must be the same object.
If d3d11colorconvert element is configured, do color space conversion
regardless of the device type whether it's S/W emulation or real H/W.
Since d3d11colorconvert is no more a child of d3d11videosinkbin,
we don't need this behavior. Note that previous code was added to
avoid color space conversion from d3d11videosink if no hardware
device is available (S/W emulation of d3d11 is too slow).
d3d11upload should be able to support upstream d3d11 memory, not only system memory.
Fix for following pipeline
d3d11upload ! "video/x-raw(memory:D3D11Memory)" ! d3d11videosink
borderless top-most style full screen mode support.
Basically fullscreen toggle mode is disabled by default. To enable it
use "fullscreen-toggle-mode" property to allow fullscreen mode change
by user input and/or property.
In some cases, rendering and dxgi (e.g., swapchain) APIs should be
called from window message pump thread, but current design (dedicated d3d11 thread)
make it impossible. To solve it, change concurrency model to locking based one
from single-thread model.
In earlier implementation of d3d11videosink where no shader was implemented,
the aspect ratio and render size were adjusted by manipulating the backbuffer size
with unintuitive formula. Since now we do color conversion and resize using
shader, we can remove the hack.
