The previous name is misleading, because the function does not actually
initialize any filters - it creates a new output stream and binds a
filtergraph output to it.
Their only function is checking that encoding was not specified for
data/unknown-type streams, but the check is broken because enc_ctx will
not be created in ost_add() unless a valid encoder can be found.
Add an actually working check for all types for which encoding is not
supported in choose_encoder().
ts_discontinuity_detect() is applied right after demuxing, while
InputStream.pts is a post-decoding timestamp, which may be delayed with
respect to demuxing by an arbitrary amount (e.g. depending on the thread
count when frame threading is used).
The name is misleading, because it is not a picture in the sense of MPEG
terminology (which define "picture" as "frame or field"), but always a
full frame. 'next' is also redundant and/or misleading, because it is
the _current_ frame to be encoded.
Previously they would only be used with trivial filtergraphs, because
filters did not handle frame durations. That is no longer true - most
filters process frame durations properly (there may still be some that
don't - this change will help finding and fixing them).
Improves output video frame durations in a number of FATE tests.
When an encoder exports sum-of-squared-differences information in
encoded packets, print_report() will print PSNR information in the
status line. However,
* the code computing PSNR assumes 8bit 420 video and prints incorrect
values otherwise; there are no issues on trac about this
* only a few encoders (namely aom, vpx, mpegvideo, snow) export this
information; other often-used encoders such as libx26[45] do not
export this, even though they could
This suggests that this feature is not useful and it is better to remove
it rather than spend effort on fixing it.
Remove now-obsolete code setting packet durations pre-muxing for CFR
encoded video.
Changes output in the following FATE tests:
* numerous adpcm tests
* ffmpeg-filter_complex_audio
* lavf-asf
* lavf-mkv
* lavf-mkv_attachment
* matroska-encoding-delay
All of these change due to the fact that the output duration is now
the actual input data duration and does not include padding added by
the encoder.
* apng-osample: less wrong packet durations are now passed to the muxer.
They are not entirely correct, because the first frame duration should
be 3 rather than 2. This is caused by the vsync code and should be
addressed later, but this change is a step in the right direction.
* tscc2-mov: last output frame has a duration of 11 rather than 1 - this
corresponds to the duration actually returned by the demuxer.
* film-cvid: video frame durations are now 2 rather than 1 - this
corresponds to durations actually returned by the demuxer and matches
the timestamps.
* mpeg2-ticket6677: durations of some video frames are now 2 rather than
1 - this matches the timestamps.
That field was added to store timestamp conversion state for audio
decoding code. Later it started being used by streamcopy as well, but
that use is wrong because, for a given input stream, both decoding and
an arbitrary number of streamcopies may be performed simultaneously.
They would then all overwrite the same state variable.
Store this state in MuxStream instead.
This is the last use of InputStream in of_streamcopy(), so the ist
parameter can now be removed.
It stores codec parameters of the stream submitted to the muxer, which
may be different from the codec parameters in AVStream due to bitstream
filtering.
This avoids the confusing back and forth synchronisation between the
encoder, bitstream filters, and the muxer, now information flows only in
one direction. It also reduces the need for non-muxing code to access
AVStream.
Reduces access to a deeply nested muxer property
OutputStream.st->codecpar->codec_type for this fundamental and immutable
stream property.
Besides making the code shorter, this will allow making the AVStream
(OutputStream.st) private to the muxer in the future.
Set InputStream.decoding_needed/discard/etc. only from
ist_{filter,output},add() functions. Reduces the knowledge of
InputStream internals in muxing/filtering code.
init_input_stream() can print log messages directly, there is no need to
ship them to the caller.
Also, log errors to the InputStream and avoid duplicate information in
the message.
Changing AVCodecContext.sample_aspect_ratio after the encoder was opened
is by itself questionable, but if anywhere it belongs in encoding rather
than filtering code.
