80 * @defgroup lavc_encdec send/receive encoding and decoding API overview
83 * The avcodec_send_packet()/avcodec_receive_frame()/avcodec_send_frame()/
84 * avcodec_receive_packet() functions provide an encode/decode API, which
85 * decouples input and output.
87 * The API is very similar for encoding/decoding and audio/video, and works as
89 * - Set up and open the AVCodecContext as usual.
91 * - For decoding, call avcodec_send_packet() to give the decoder raw
92 * compressed data in an AVPacket.
93 * - For encoding, call avcodec_send_frame() to give the encoder an AVFrame
94 * containing uncompressed audio or video.
95 * In both cases, it is recommended that AVPackets and AVFrames are
96 * refcounted, or libavcodec might have to copy the input data. (libavformat
97 * always returns refcounted AVPackets, and av_frame_get_buffer() allocates
98 * refcounted AVFrames.)
99 * - Receive output in a loop. Periodically call one of the avcodec_receive_*()
100 * functions and process their output:
101 * - For decoding, call avcodec_receive_frame(). On success, it will return
102 * an AVFrame containing uncompressed audio or video data.
103 * - For encoding, call avcodec_receive_packet(). On success, it will return
104 * an AVPacket with a compressed frame.
105 * Repeat this call until it returns AVERROR(EAGAIN) or an error. The
106 * AVERROR(EAGAIN) return value means that new input data is required to
107 * return new output. In this case, continue with sending input. For each
108 * input frame/packet, the codec will typically return 1 output frame/packet,
109 * but it can also be 0 or more than 1.
111 * At the beginning of decoding or encoding, the codec might accept multiple
112 * input frames/packets without returning a frame, until its internal buffers
113 * are filled. This situation is handled transparently if you follow the steps
116 * In theory, sending input can result in EAGAIN - this should happen only if
117 * not all output was received. You can use this to structure alternative decode
118 * or encode loops other than the one suggested above. For example, you could
119 * try sending new input on each iteration, and try to receive output if that
122 * End of stream situations. These require "flushing" (aka draining) the codec,
123 * as the codec might buffer multiple frames or packets internally for
124 * performance or out of necessity (consider B-frames).
125 * This is handled as follows:
126 * - Instead of valid input, send NULL to the avcodec_send_packet() (decoding)
127 * or avcodec_send_frame() (encoding) functions. This will enter draining
129 * - Call avcodec_receive_frame() (decoding) or avcodec_receive_packet()
130 * (encoding) in a loop until AVERROR_EOF is returned. The functions will
131 * not return AVERROR(EAGAIN), unless you forgot to enter draining mode.
132 * - Before decoding can be resumed again, the codec has to be reset with
133 * avcodec_flush_buffers().
135 * Using the API as outlined above is highly recommended. But it is also
136 * possible to call functions outside of this rigid schema. For example, you can
137 * call avcodec_send_packet() repeatedly without calling
138 * avcodec_receive_frame(). In this case, avcodec_send_packet() will succeed
139 * until the codec's internal buffer has been filled up (which is typically of
140 * size 1 per output frame, after initial input), and then reject input with
141 * AVERROR(EAGAIN). Once it starts rejecting input, you have no choice but to
142 * read at least some output.
144 * Not all codecs will follow a rigid and predictable dataflow; the only
145 * guarantee is that an AVERROR(EAGAIN) return value on a send/receive call on
146 * one end implies that a receive/send call on the other end will succeed, or
147 * at least will not fail with AVERROR(EAGAIN). In general, no codec will
148 * permit unlimited buffering of input or output.
150 * This API replaces the following legacy functions:
151 * - avcodec_decode_video2() and avcodec_decode_audio4():
152 * Use avcodec_send_packet() to feed input to the decoder, then use
153 * avcodec_receive_frame() to receive decoded frames after each packet.
154 * Unlike with the old video decoding API, multiple frames might result from
155 * a packet. For audio, splitting the input packet into frames by partially
156 * decoding packets becomes transparent to the API user. You never need to
157 * feed an AVPacket to the API twice (unless it is rejected with AVERROR(EAGAIN) - then
158 * no data was read from the packet).
159 * Additionally, sending a flush/draining packet is required only once.
160 * - avcodec_encode_video2()/avcodec_encode_audio2():
161 * Use avcodec_send_frame() to feed input to the encoder, then use
162 * avcodec_receive_packet() to receive encoded packets.
163 * Providing user-allocated buffers for avcodec_receive_packet() is not
165 * - The new API does not handle subtitles yet.
167 * Mixing new and old function calls on the same AVCodecContext is not allowed,
168 * and will result in undefined behavior.
170 * Some codecs might require using the new API; using the old API will return
171 * an error when calling it. All codecs support the new API.
173 * A codec is not allowed to return AVERROR(EAGAIN) for both sending and receiving. This
174 * would be an invalid state, which could put the codec user into an endless
175 * loop. The API has no concept of time either: it cannot happen that trying to
176 * do avcodec_send_packet() results in AVERROR(EAGAIN), but a repeated call 1 second
177 * later accepts the packet (with no other receive/flush API calls involved).
178 * The API is a strict state machine, and the passage of time is not supposed
179 * to influence it. Some timing-dependent behavior might still be deemed
180 * acceptable in certain cases. But it must never result in both send/receive
181 * returning EAGAIN at the same time at any point. It must also absolutely be
182 * avoided that the current state is "unstable" and can "flip-flop" between
183 * the send/receive APIs allowing progress. For example, it's not allowed that
184 * the codec randomly decides that it actually wants to consume a packet now
185 * instead of returning a frame, after it just returned AVERROR(EAGAIN) on an
186 * avcodec_send_packet() call.
191 * @defgroup lavc_core Core functions/structures.
194 * Basic definitions, functions for querying libavcodec capabilities,
195 * allocating core structures, etc.
201 * Identify the syntax and semantics of the bitstream.
202 * The principle is roughly:
203 * Two decoders with the same ID can decode the same streams.
204 * Two encoders with the same ID can encode compatible streams.
205 * There may be slight deviations from the principle due to implementation
208 * If you add a codec ID to this list, add it so that
209 * 1. no value of an existing codec ID changes (that would break ABI),
210 * 2. it is as close as possible to similar codecs
212 * After adding new codec IDs, do not forget to add an entry to the codec
213 * descriptor list and bump libavcodec minor version.

4973 * Create and return a AVHWFramesContext with values adequate for hardware
4974 * decoding. This is meant to get called from the get_format callback, and is
4975 * a helper for preparing a AVHWFramesContext for AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx.
4976 * This API is for decoding with certain hardware acceleration modes/APIs only.
4978 * The returned AVHWFramesContext is not initialized. The caller must do this
4979 * with av_hwframe_ctx_init().
4981 * Calling this function is not a requirement, but makes it simpler to avoid
4982 * codec or hardware API specific details when manually allocating frames.
4984 * Alternatively to this, an API user can set AVCodecContext.hw_device_ctx,
4985 * which sets up AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx fully automatically, and makes
4986 * it unnecessary to call this function or having to care about
4987 * AVHWFramesContext initialization at all.
4989 * There are a number of requirements for calling this function:
4991 * - It must be called from get_format with the same avctx parameter that was
4992 * passed to get_format. Calling it outside of get_format is not allowed, and
4993 * can trigger undefined behavior.
4994 * - The function is not always supported (see description of return values).
4995 * Even if this function returns successfully, hwaccel initialization could
4996 * fail later. (The degree to which implementations check whether the stream
4997 * is actually supported varies. Some do this check only after the user's
4998 * get_format callback returns.)
4999 * - The hw_pix_fmt must be one of the choices suggested by get_format. If the
5000 * user decides to use a AVHWFramesContext prepared with this API function,
5001 * the user must return the same hw_pix_fmt from get_format.
5002 * - The device_ref passed to this function must support the given hw_pix_fmt.
5003 * - After calling this API function, it is the user's responsibility to
5004 * initialize the AVHWFramesContext (returned by the out_frames_ref parameter),
5005 * and to set AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx to it. If done, this must be done
5006 * before returning from get_format (this is implied by the normal
5007 * AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx API rules).
5008 * - The AVHWFramesContext parameters may change every time time get_format is
5009 * called. Also, AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx is reset before get_format. So
5010 * you are inherently required to go through this process again on every
5012 * - It is perfectly possible to call this function without actually using
5013 * the resulting AVHWFramesContext. One use-case might be trying to reuse a
5014 * previously initialized AVHWFramesContext, and calling this API function
5015 * only to test whether the required frame parameters have changed.
5016 * - Fields that use dynamically allocated values of any kind must not be set
5017 * by the user unless setting them is explicitly allowed by the documentation.
5018 * If the user sets AVHWFramesContext.free and AVHWFramesContext.user_opaque,
5019 * the new free callback must call the potentially set previous free callback.
5020 * This API call may set any dynamically allocated fields, including the free
5023 * The function will set at least the following fields on AVHWFramesContext
5024 * (potentially more, depending on hwaccel API):
5026 * - All fields set by av_hwframe_ctx_alloc().
5027 * - Set the format field to hw_pix_fmt.
5028 * - Set the sw_format field to the most suited and most versatile format. (An
5029 * implication is that this will prefer generic formats over opaque formats
5030 * with arbitrary restrictions, if possible.)
5031 * - Set the width/height fields to the coded frame size, rounded up to the
5032 * API-specific minimum alignment.
5033 * - Only _if_ the hwaccel requires a pre-allocated pool: set the initial_pool_size
5034 * field to the number of maximum reference surfaces possible with the codec,
5035 * plus 1 surface for the user to work (meaning the user can safely reference
5036 * at most 1 decoded surface at a time), plus additional buffering introduced
5037 * by frame threading. If the hwaccel does not require pre-allocation, the
5038 * field is left to 0, and the decoder will allocate new surfaces on demand
5040 * - Possibly AVHWFramesContext.hwctx fields, depending on the underlying
5043 * Essentially, out_frames_ref returns the same as av_hwframe_ctx_alloc(), but
5044 * with basic frame parameters set.
5046 * The function is stateless, and does not change the AVCodecContext or the
5047 * device_ref AVHWDeviceContext.
5049 * @param avctx The context which is currently calling get_format, and which
5050 * implicitly contains all state needed for filling the returned
5051 * AVHWFramesContext properly.

5053 * which will be used by the hardware decoder.

5057 * Fields will be set to values required for decoding.
5058 * Not changed if an error is returned.

5060 * have special semantics:

5063 * support setting AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx at all,
