Field Documentation

const char* AVHWAccel::name

Name of the hardware accelerated codec.

The name is globally unique among encoders and among decoders (but an encoder and a decoder can share the same name).

Definition at line 3026 of file avcodec.h.

enum AVMediaType AVHWAccel::type

Type of codec implemented by the hardware accelerator.

See AVMEDIA_TYPE_xxx

Definition at line 3033 of file avcodec.h.

enum AVCodecID AVHWAccel::id

Codec implemented by the hardware accelerator.

See AV_CODEC_ID_xxx

enum AVPixelFormat AVHWAccel::pix_fmt

Supported pixel format.

Only hardware accelerated formats are supported here.

Definition at line 3047 of file avcodec.h.

Referenced by ff_find_hwaccel().

int AVHWAccel::capabilities

Hardware accelerated codec capabilities.

see FF_HWACCEL_CODEC_CAP_*

Definition at line 3053 of file avcodec.h.

struct AVHWAccel* AVHWAccel::next

Definition at line 3055 of file avcodec.h.

Referenced by av_hwaccel_next(), and av_register_hwaccel().

int(* AVHWAccel::start_frame)(AVCodecContext *avctx, const uint8_t *buf, uint32_t buf_size)

Called at the beginning of each frame or field picture.

Meaningful frame information (codec specific) is guaranteed to be parsed at this point. This function is mandatory.

Note that buf can be NULL along with buf_size set to 0. Otherwise, this means the whole frame is available at this point.

Parameters

avctx	the codec context
buf	the frame data buffer base
buf_size	the size of the frame in bytes

Returns

zero if successful, a negative value otherwise

Definition at line 3071 of file avcodec.h.

Referenced by decode_nal_units(), ff_h263_decode_frame(), mpeg_field_start(), and vc1_decode_frame().

int(* AVHWAccel::decode_slice)(AVCodecContext *avctx, const uint8_t *buf, uint32_t buf_size)

Callback for each slice.

Meaningful slice information (codec specific) is guaranteed to be parsed at this point. This function is mandatory.

Parameters

avctx	the codec context
buf	the slice data buffer base
buf_size	the size of the slice in bytes

Returns

zero if successful, a negative value otherwise

Definition at line 3084 of file avcodec.h.

Referenced by decode_nal_units(), decode_slice(), mpeg_decode_slice(), and vc1_decode_frame().

int(* AVHWAccel::end_frame)(AVCodecContext *avctx)

Called at the end of each frame or field picture.

The whole picture is parsed at this point and can now be sent to the hardware accelerator. This function is mandatory.

Parameters

avctx

the codec context

Returns

zero if successful, a negative value otherwise

Definition at line 3095 of file avcodec.h.

Referenced by ff_h263_decode_frame(), field_end(), mpeg_field_start(), slice_end(), and vc1_decode_frame().

int AVHWAccel::priv_data_size

Size of HW accelerator private data.

Private data is allocated with av_mallocz() before AVCodecContext.get_buffer() and deallocated after AVCodecContext.release_buffer().
