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

1932 * Their values may differ from the corresponding values in

1940 * * if the data is planar audio with more than 8 channels, then this
1941 * callback must allocate and fill extended_data to contain all pointers
1942 * to all data planes. data[] must hold as many pointers as it can.
1943 * extended_data must be allocated with av_malloc() and will be freed in
1945 * * otherwise extended_data must point to data
1946 * - buf[] must contain one or more pointers to AVBufferRef structures. Each of
1947 * the frame's data and extended_data pointers must be contained in these. That
1948 * is, one AVBufferRef for each allocated chunk of memory, not necessarily one
1949 * AVBufferRef per data[] entry. See: av_buffer_create(), av_buffer_alloc(),
1950 * and av_buffer_ref().
1951 * - extended_buf and nb_extended_buf must be allocated with av_malloc() by
1952 * this callback and filled with the extra buffers if there are more
1953 * buffers than buf[] can hold. extended_buf will be freed in
1956 * If AV_CODEC_CAP_DR1 is not set then get_buffer2() must call

1973 * If frame multithreading is used and thread_safe_callbacks is set,

4119 * Create and return a AVHWFramesContext with values adequate for hardware
4120 * decoding. This is meant to get called from the get_format callback, and is
4121 * a helper for preparing a AVHWFramesContext for AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx.
4122 * This API is for decoding with certain hardware acceleration modes/APIs only.
4124 * The returned AVHWFramesContext is not initialized. The caller must do this
4125 * with av_hwframe_ctx_init().
4127 * Calling this function is not a requirement, but makes it simpler to avoid
4128 * codec or hardware API specific details when manually allocating frames.
4130 * Alternatively to this, an API user can set AVCodecContext.hw_device_ctx,
4131 * which sets up AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx fully automatically, and makes
4132 * it unnecessary to call this function or having to care about
4133 * AVHWFramesContext initialization at all.
4135 * There are a number of requirements for calling this function:
4137 * - It must be called from get_format with the same avctx parameter that was
4138 * passed to get_format. Calling it outside of get_format is not allowed, and
4139 * can trigger undefined behavior.
4140 * - The function is not always supported (see description of return values).
4141 * Even if this function returns successfully, hwaccel initialization could
4142 * fail later. (The degree to which implementations check whether the stream
4143 * is actually supported varies. Some do this check only after the user's
4144 * get_format callback returns.)
4145 * - The hw_pix_fmt must be one of the choices suggested by get_format. If the
4146 * user decides to use a AVHWFramesContext prepared with this API function,
4147 * the user must return the same hw_pix_fmt from get_format.
4148 * - The device_ref passed to this function must support the given hw_pix_fmt.
4149 * - After calling this API function, it is the user's responsibility to
4150 * initialize the AVHWFramesContext (returned by the out_frames_ref parameter),
4151 * and to set AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx to it. If done, this must be done
4152 * before returning from get_format (this is implied by the normal
4153 * AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx API rules).
4154 * - The AVHWFramesContext parameters may change every time time get_format is
4155 * called. Also, AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx is reset before get_format. So
4156 * you are inherently required to go through this process again on every
4158 * - It is perfectly possible to call this function without actually using
4159 * the resulting AVHWFramesContext. One use-case might be trying to reuse a
4160 * previously initialized AVHWFramesContext, and calling this API function
4161 * only to test whether the required frame parameters have changed.
4162 * - Fields that use dynamically allocated values of any kind must not be set
4163 * by the user unless setting them is explicitly allowed by the documentation.
4164 * If the user sets AVHWFramesContext.free and AVHWFramesContext.user_opaque,
4165 * the new free callback must call the potentially set previous free callback.
4166 * This API call may set any dynamically allocated fields, including the free
4169 * The function will set at least the following fields on AVHWFramesContext
4170 * (potentially more, depending on hwaccel API):
4172 * - All fields set by av_hwframe_ctx_alloc().
4173 * - Set the format field to hw_pix_fmt.
4174 * - Set the sw_format field to the most suited and most versatile format. (An
4175 * implication is that this will prefer generic formats over opaque formats
4176 * with arbitrary restrictions, if possible.)
4177 * - Set the width/height fields to the coded frame size, rounded up to the
4178 * API-specific minimum alignment.
4179 * - Only _if_ the hwaccel requires a pre-allocated pool: set the initial_pool_size
4180 * field to the number of maximum reference surfaces possible with the codec,
4181 * plus 1 surface for the user to work (meaning the user can safely reference
4182 * at most 1 decoded surface at a time), plus additional buffering introduced
4183 * by frame threading. If the hwaccel does not require pre-allocation, the
4184 * field is left to 0, and the decoder will allocate new surfaces on demand
4186 * - Possibly AVHWFramesContext.hwctx fields, depending on the underlying
4189 * Essentially, out_frames_ref returns the same as av_hwframe_ctx_alloc(), but
4190 * with basic frame parameters set.
4192 * The function is stateless, and does not change the AVCodecContext or the
4193 * device_ref AVHWDeviceContext.
4195 * @param avctx The context which is currently calling get_format, and which
4196 * implicitly contains all state needed for filling the returned
4197 * AVHWFramesContext properly.
4198 * @param device_ref A reference to the AVHWDeviceContext describing the device
4199 * which will be used by the hardware decoder.
4200 * @param hw_pix_fmt The hwaccel format you are going to return from get_format.

4202 * AVHWFramesContext, created from the given device_ref.
4203 * Fields will be set to values required for decoding.
4204 * Not changed if an error is returned.
4205 * @return zero on success, a negative value on error. The following error codes
4206 * have special semantics:
4207 * AVERROR(ENOENT): the decoder does not support this functionality. Setup
4208 * is always manual, or it is a decoder which does not
4209 * support setting AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx at all,
4210 * or it is a software format.
4211 * AVERROR(EINVAL): it is known that hardware decoding is not supported for
4212 * this configuration, or the device_ref is not supported
4213 * for the hwaccel referenced by hw_pix_fmt.
