11 // Simple Encoder
12 // ==============
13 //
14 // This is an example of a simple encoder loop. It takes an input file in
15 // YV12 format, passes it through the encoder, and writes the compressed
16 // frames to disk in IVF format. Other decoder examples build upon this
17 // one.
18 //
19 // The details of the IVF format have been elided from this example for
20 // simplicity of presentation, as IVF files will not generally be used by
21 // your application. In general, an IVF file consists of a file header,
22 // followed by a variable number of frames. Each frame consists of a frame
23 // header followed by a variable length payload. The length of the payload
24 // is specified in the first four bytes of the frame header. The payload is
25 // the raw compressed data.
26 //
27 // Standard Includes
28 // -----------------
29 // For encoders, you only have to include `vpx_encoder.h` and then any
30 // header files for the specific codecs you use. In this case, we're using
31 // vp8.
32 //
33 // Getting The Default Configuration
34 // ---------------------------------
35 // Encoders have the notion of "usage profiles." For example, an encoder
36 // may want to publish default configurations for both a video
37 // conferencing application and a best quality offline encoder. These
38 // obviously have very different default settings. Consult the
39 // documentation for your codec to see if it provides any default
40 // configurations. All codecs provide a default configuration, number 0,
41 // which is valid for material in the vacinity of QCIF/QVGA.
42 //
43 // Updating The Configuration
44 // ---------------------------------
45 // Almost all applications will want to update the default configuration
46 // with settings specific to their usage. Here we set the width and height
47 // of the video file to that specified on the command line. We also scale
48 // the default bitrate based on the ratio between the default resolution
49 // and the resolution specified on the command line.
50 //
51 // Initializing The Codec
52 // ----------------------
53 // The encoder is initialized by the following code.
54 //
55 // Encoding A Frame
56 // ----------------
57 // The frame is read as a continuous block (size width * height * 3 / 2)
58 // from the input file. If a frame was read (the input file has not hit
59 // EOF) then the frame is passed to the encoder. Otherwise, a NULL
60 // is passed, indicating the End-Of-Stream condition to the encoder. The
61 // `frame_cnt` is reused as the presentation time stamp (PTS) and each
62 // frame is shown for one frame-time in duration. The flags parameter is
63 // unused in this example. The deadline is set to VPX_DL_REALTIME to
64 // make the example run as quickly as possible.
65
66 // Forced Keyframes
67 // ----------------
68 // Keyframes can be forced by setting the VPX_EFLAG_FORCE_KF bit of the
69 // flags passed to `vpx_codec_control()`. In this example, we force a
70 // keyframe every <keyframe-interval> frames. Note, the output stream can
71 // contain additional keyframes beyond those that have been forced using the
72 // VPX_EFLAG_FORCE_KF flag because of automatic keyframe placement by the
73 // encoder.
74 //
75 // Processing The Encoded Data
76 // ---------------------------
77 // Each packet of type `VPX_CODEC_CX_FRAME_PKT` contains the encoded data
78 // for this frame. We write a IVF frame header, followed by the raw data.
79 //
80 // Cleanup
81 // -------
82 // The `vpx_codec_destroy` call frees any memory allocated by the codec.
83 //
84 // Error Handling
85 // --------------
86 // This example does not special case any error return codes. If there was
87 // an error, a descriptive message is printed and the program exits. With
88 // few exeptions, vpx_codec functions return an enumerated error status,
89 // with the value `0` indicating success.
90 //
91 // Error Resiliency Features
92 // -------------------------
93 // Error resiliency is controlled by the g_error_resilient member of the
94 // configuration structure. Use the `decode_with_drops` example to decode with
95 // frames 5-10 dropped. Compare the output for a file encoded with this example
96 // versus one encoded with the `simple_encoder` example.
