Hi all

I've been trying to use smem module to access raw frame data from the h264 encoded stream of c920 webcam, but the video callbacks were never called.

After some trials I realised that the problem is in transcoding to a raw format. For instance, the following command

Code: Select all

cvlc v4l2:///dev/video0:chroma="H264":width=1920:height=1080:fps=30 --live-caching=200 --swscale-mode=0 --avcodec-codec=h264 --avcodec-hw=vdpau --avcodec-threads=1 --sout='#transcode{vcodec=RV24}:std{access=file,mux=avi,dst=out.avi}'

produces a zero size out.avi file (300 bytes to be exact). I've tried many other raw formats such as I420, I444, RGBA, RV32 .. same result

However, if i use any compressed format, flv or h264 for instance, the output file is created and has valid data, Similarly, smem works properly in this case if used instead of std module.

Some stuff I tried and validated to help isolating the issue:
1- Capturing and displaying works fine (without --sout altogether)
2- Using vdpau or no hardware acceleration does not change the issue behaviour
3- Transcoding to raw format works fine in Lubuntu 14.04 using vlc version 2.1.6 and 2.2.2
4- Transcoding the raw format fails as explained on Lubuntu 16.04 using vlc versions 2.2.2 and 2.2.4

Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers,

Tee

Disable hardware decoding. It only makes things worse if you want to encode in software.

Hi Remi

Thank for your response. Actually I don't want to encode the stream. What I want is to decode the h264 in hardware and have the raw video passed to smem module (or a file for testing), hence the need for transcode.

I only used encoding to show that transcode to raw doesn't work while transcoding to another compressed format works.

What am i missing?

Cheers,

Hardware decoding is optimized for processing and rendering on GPU. Getting the data back to main CPU memory is either not supported or slow - by hardware design. So again, don't.

Thanks Remi for the info

I've cancelled the hardware decoding and I'm still getting no output in the file. The command I've executed is

Code: Select all

cvlc v4l2:///dev/video0:chroma="H264":width=1920:height=1080:fps=30 --live-caching=200 --swscale-mode=0 --avcodec-codec=h264 --avcodec-hw=none --sout='#transcode{vcodec=RV24}:std{access=file,mux=avi,dst=out.avi}'

and I checked the output that no hardware accelerator is being used. Is there anything wrong with the command or that operation is no longer supported?

Look at the logs; it should explain what's failing.

I did that before, but I went across the log more carefully once more. There is no clear indication of any error. There were only a repeated warning (plane is not aligned, disabling direct rendering, then enabling it), which has disappeared when I added --no-avcodec-dr

The only other thing that drew my attention is I've found "stream_out_transcode stream out debug: destination (after video filters) 1920x1090" in the log. I'm not sure how the 1080 became 1090. Other than this I'm afraid my experience with VLC and multimedia didn't help me any more.

This is the log
