Field Documentation

◆ name

const char* AVHWAccel::name

Name of the hardware accelerated codec.

The name is globally unique among encoders and among decoders (but an encoder and a decoder can share the same name).

Definition at line 3655 of file avcodec.h.

◆ type

enum AVMediaType AVHWAccel::type

Type of codec implemented by the hardware accelerator.

See AVMEDIA_TYPE_xxx

Definition at line 3662 of file avcodec.h.

◆ id

enum AVCodecID AVHWAccel::id

Codec implemented by the hardware accelerator.

See AV_CODEC_ID_xxx

Definition at line 3669 of file avcodec.h.

◆ pix_fmt

enum AVPixelFormat AVHWAccel::pix_fmt

Supported pixel format.

Only hardware accelerated formats are supported here.

Definition at line 3676 of file avcodec.h.

◆ capabilities

int AVHWAccel::capabilities

Hardware accelerated codec capabilities.

see AV_HWACCEL_CODEC_CAP_*

Definition at line 3682 of file avcodec.h.

◆ alloc_frame

int(* AVHWAccel::alloc_frame) (AVCodecContext *avctx, AVFrame *frame)

Allocate a custom buffer.

Definition at line 3695 of file avcodec.h.

◆ start_frame

int(* AVHWAccel::start_frame) (AVCodecContext *avctx, const uint8_t *buf, uint32_t buf_size)

Called at the beginning of each frame or field picture.

Meaningful frame information (codec specific) is guaranteed to be parsed at this point. This function is mandatory.

Note that buf can be NULL along with buf_size set to 0. Otherwise, this means the whole frame is available at this point.

Parameters

avctx	the codec context
buf	the frame data buffer base
buf_size	the size of the frame in bytes

Returns: zero if successful, a negative value otherwise

Definition at line 3711 of file avcodec.h.

◆ decode_params

int(* AVHWAccel::decode_params) (AVCodecContext *avctx, int type, const uint8_t *buf, uint32_t buf_size)

Callback for parameter data (SPS/PPS/VPS etc).

Useful for hardware decoders which keep persistent state about the video parameters, and need to receive any changes to update that state.

Parameters

avctx	the codec context
type	the nal unit type
buf	the nal unit data buffer
buf_size	the size of the nal unit in bytes

Returns: zero if successful, a negative value otherwise

Definition at line 3725 of file avcodec.h.

◆ decode_slice

int(* AVHWAccel::decode_slice) (AVCodecContext *avctx, const uint8_t *buf, uint32_t buf_size)

Callback for each slice.

Meaningful slice information (codec specific) is guaranteed to be parsed at this point. This function is mandatory. The only exception is XvMC, that works on MB level.

Parameters

avctx	the codec context
buf	the slice data buffer base
buf_size	the size of the slice in bytes

Returns: zero if successful, a negative value otherwise

Definition at line 3739 of file avcodec.h.

◆ end_frame

int(* AVHWAccel::end_frame) (AVCodecContext *avctx)

Called at the end of each frame or field picture.

The whole picture is parsed at this point and can now be sent to the hardware accelerator. This function is mandatory.

Parameters

avctx the codec context

Returns: zero if successful, a negative value otherwise

Definition at line 3750 of file avcodec.h.

◆ frame_priv_data_size

int AVHWAccel::frame_priv_data_size

Size of per-frame hardware accelerator private data.

Private data is allocated with av_mallocz() before AVCodecContext.get_buffer() and deallocated after AVCodecContext.release_buffer().

Definition at line 3759 of file avcodec.h.

◆ decode_mb

void(* AVHWAccel::decode_mb) (struct MpegEncContext *s)

Called for every Macroblock in a slice.

XvMC uses it to replace the ff_mpv_reconstruct_mb(). Instead of decoding to raw picture, MB parameters are stored in an array provided by the video driver.

Parameters

s	the mpeg context

Definition at line 3770 of file avcodec.h.

◆ init

int(* AVHWAccel::init) (AVCodecContext *avctx)

Initialize the hwaccel private data.

This will be called from ff_get_format(), after hwaccel and hwaccel_context are set and the hwaccel private data in AVCodecInternal is allocated.

Definition at line 3779 of file avcodec.h.

◆ uninit

int(* AVHWAccel::uninit) (AVCodecContext *avctx)

Uninitialize the hwaccel private data.

This will be called from get_format() or avcodec_close(), after hwaccel and hwaccel_context are already uninitialized.

Definition at line 3787 of file avcodec.h.

◆ priv_data_size

int AVHWAccel::priv_data_size

Size of the private data to allocate in AVCodecInternal.hwaccel_priv_data.

Definition at line 3793 of file avcodec.h.

◆ caps_internal

int AVHWAccel::caps_internal

Internal hwaccel capabilities.

Definition at line 3798 of file avcodec.h.

◆ frame_params

int(* AVHWAccel::frame_params) (AVCodecContext *avctx, AVBufferRef *hw_frames_ctx)

Fill the given hw_frames context with current codec parameters.

Called from get_format. Refer to avcodec_get_hw_frames_parameters() for details.

This CAN be called before AVHWAccel.init is called, and you must assume that avctx->hwaccel_priv_data is invalid.
