The rocDecode hardware decoder API
|
|
********************************************************************
|
|
|
|
The rocDecode hardware decoder API exposed in |rocdecode|_ is used to decode frames that were parsed by :doc:`the rocDecode parser <./rocDecode-parser>`.
|
|
|
|
Parsing parameters are stored in the ``RocDecoderCreateInfo`` struct and passed to ``rocDecCreateDecoder()`` to create a new decoder. ``rocDecCreateDecoder()`` returns a handle to the decoder. For example:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: cpp
|
|
|
|
RocDecoderCreateInfo create_info = {};
|
|
create_info.codec_type = dec_info.rocdec_codec_id; // user specified codec_type for raw files
|
|
create_info.max_width = DEFAULT_WIDTH;
|
|
create_info.max_height = DEFAULT_HEIGHT;
|
|
create_info.width = DEFAULT_WIDTH;
|
|
create_info.height = DEFAULT_HEIGHT;
|
|
create_info.num_decode_surfaces = 6;
|
|
create_info.num_output_surfaces = 1;
|
|
rocDecCreateDecoder(&decoder_handle, &create_info);
|
|
|
|
|
|
``rocDecGetDecoderCaps()`` queries the capabilities of the underlying hardware video decoder. Decoder capabilities usually include supported codecs, maximum resolution, and
|
|
bit depth.
|
|
|
|
``rocDecDecodeFrame()`` is used to submit frames for hardware decoding. This function must be called when the ``pfn_decode_picture`` callback is triggered in the ``rocDecParseVideoData()`` call. See :doc:`The rocDecode parser API <./rocDecode-parser>` for details about this call.
|
|
|
|
``rocDecDecodeFrame()`` takes the decoder handle and the pointer to the ``RocdecPicParams()`` struct and initiates the video decoding using VA-API. ``RocdecPicParams`` is populated with the decoded frame information.
|
|
|
|
The ``pfn_sequence_callback`` callback is triggered when a format change occurs or when a new sequence header is encountered. The implementation of ``pfn_sequence_callback`` must call ``rocDecReconfigureDecoder()`` to reconfigure the decoder to handle the new sequence or format. See :doc:`The rocDecode parser API <./rocDecode-parser>` for details about this callback.
|
|
|
|
``rocDecGetDecodeStatus()`` can be called to query the decoding status of a frame. The result of the query is either ``rocDecodeStatus_Success``, if decoding is complete, or ``rocDecodeStatus_InProgress``, if decoding is still in progress.
|
|
|
|
The ``pfn_display_picture`` callback is triggered when a frame has been decoded. The decoded frame can then be further processed in device memory. The implementation for this callback must call ``rocDecGetVideoFrame()`` to obtain the decoded frame's HIP device pointer.
|
|
|
|
``rocDecGetVideoFrame()`` provides a way to access the decoded frame in HIP. This is a blocking call that only returns once frame decoding and memory mapping is complete. It returns the HIP device pointer as well as information about the :doc:`output surface type <../conceptual/rocDecode-memory-types>`.
|
|
|
|
If the output surface type is ``OUT_SURFACE_MEM_DEV_INTERNAL``, meaning intermediate GPU memory, the direct pointer to the decoded surface is provided. If the requested surface
|
|
type is ``OUT_SURFACE_MEM_DEV_COPIED`` or ``OUT_SURFACE_MEM_HOST_COPIED``, the internal decoded frame is copied to another buffer, either in device memory or host memory.
|
|
|
|
Once decoding is complete, ``rocDecDestroyVideoParser()`` and ``rocDecDestroyDecoder()`` must be called to destroy the parser and the decoding session, and free resources.
