# rocDecode
rocDecode is a high performance video decode SDK for AMD GPUs. rocDecode API lets developers access the video decoding features available on the GPU.
## Supported Codecs
* H.265 (HEVC) - 8 bit, and 10 bit
## Prerequisites
* Linux distribution
+ Ubuntu - `20.04` / `22.04`
+ RHEL - `8` / `9`
+ SLES - `15-SP4`
* [ROCm supported hardware](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/en/latest/release/gpu_os_support.html)
### To install package
* [ROCm 6.1.0 or later](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/install-on-linux/en/latest/how-to/native-install/index.html) - Follow below steps from the installation via native package manager on ROCm installation documentation
* Registering repositories
* Register kernel-mode driver
* Register ROCm packages
* Install kernel driver
### To build from source
* Install [ROCm 6.1.0 or later](https://rocmdocs.amd.com/en/latest/deploy/linux/installer/install.html) with `--usecase=multimediasdk,rocm --no-32`
* CMake `3.5` or later
**NOTE:** Ubuntu 22.04 - Install `libstdc++-12-dev`
```shell
sudo apt install libstdc++-12-dev
```
#### Prerequisites setup script for Linux
For the convenience of the developer, we provide the setup script [rocDecode-setup.py](rocDecode-setup.py) which will install all the dependencies required by this project.
**Usage:**
```shell
python rocDecode-setup.py --rocm_path [ ROCm Installation Path - optional (default:/opt/rocm)]
--developer [ Setup Developer Options - optional (default:ON) [options:ON/OFF]]
```
**NOTE:** This script only needs to be executed once.
## Build and Install instructions
### Package install
Install rocDecode runtime, development, and test packages. Runtime package - `rocdecode` only provides the rocdecode library `librocdecode.so`, development package `rocdecode-dev`/`rocdecode-devel` provides the library, header files, and samples. `rocdecode-test` package provides ctest to verify installation. Package install will auto install all dependencies.
* Install packages on `Ubuntu`
```shell
sudo apt install rocdecode rocdecode-dev rocdecode-test
```
* Install packages on `RHEL` / `SLES`
```shell
sudo yum install rocdecode rocdecode-devel rocdecode-test
```
### Source build and install
```shell
git clone https://github.com/ROCm/rocDecode.git
cd rocDecode
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ../
make -j8
sudo make install
```
* run tests - Requires `FFMPEG` dev install
```shell
make test
```
**NOTE:** run tests with verbose option `make test ARGS="-VV"`
* make package
```shell
sudo make package
```
## Verify Installation
The installer will copy
* Libraries into `/opt/rocm/lib`
* Header files into `/opt/rocm/include/rocdecode`
* Samples folder into `/opt/rocm/share/rocdecode`
* Documents folder into `/opt/rocm/share/doc/rocdecode`
Build and run sample
```shell
mkdir rocdecode-sample && cd rocdecode-sample
cmake /opt/rocm/share/rocdecode/samples/videoDecode/
make -j8
./videodecode -i /opt/rocm/share/rocdecode/video/AMD_driving_virtual_20-H265.mp4
```
**NOTE:** FFMPEG dev install required to run samples
## Samples
The tool provides a few samples to decode videos [here](samples/). Please refer to the individual folders to build and run the samples.
### Sample Prerequisites
* [FFMPEG](https://ffmpeg.org/about.html) - required to run sample applications & make test
* On `Ubuntu`
```shell
sudo apt install ffmpeg libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev
```
* On `RHEL`/`SLES` - install ffmpeg development packages manually or use `rocDecode-setup.py` script
## Docker
Docker files to build rocDecode containers are available [here](docker/)
## Documentation
Run the steps below to build documentation locally.
* Sphinx
```shell
cd docs
pip3 install -r sphinx/requirements.txt
python3 -m sphinx -T -E -b html -d _build/doctrees -D language=en . _build/html
```
* Doxygen
```shell
