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 2073 of file avcodec.h.

◆ type

enum AVMediaType AVHWAccel::type

Type of codec implemented by the hardware accelerator.

See AVMEDIA_TYPE_xxx

Definition at line 2080 of file avcodec.h.

◆ id

enum AVCodecID AVHWAccel::id

Codec implemented by the hardware accelerator.

See AV_CODEC_ID_xxx

Definition at line 2087 of file avcodec.h.

◆ pix_fmt

enum AVPixelFormat AVHWAccel::pix_fmt

Supported pixel format.

Only hardware accelerated formats are supported here.

Definition at line 2094 of file avcodec.h.

◆ capabilities

int AVHWAccel::capabilities

Hardware accelerated codec capabilities.

see AV_HWACCEL_CODEC_CAP_*

Definition at line 2100 of file avcodec.h.

◆ alloc_frame

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

Allocate a custom buffer.

Definition at line 2113 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
avctxthe codec context
bufthe frame data buffer base
buf_sizethe size of the frame in bytes
Returns
zero if successful, a negative value otherwise

Definition at line 2129 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
avctxthe codec context
typethe nal unit type
bufthe nal unit data buffer
buf_sizethe size of the nal unit in bytes
Returns
zero if successful, a negative value otherwise

Definition at line 2143 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.

Parameters
avctxthe codec context
bufthe slice data buffer base
buf_sizethe size of the slice in bytes
Returns
zero if successful, a negative value otherwise

Definition at line 2156 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
avctxthe codec context
Returns
zero if successful, a negative value otherwise

Definition at line 2167 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 2176 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 2185 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 2193 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 2199 of file avcodec.h.

◆ caps_internal

int AVHWAccel::caps_internal

Internal hwaccel capabilities.

Definition at line 2204 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.
