14 // This is an example of a simple decoder loop. It takes an input file
15 // containing the compressed data (in IVF format), passes it through the
16 // decoder, and writes the decompressed frames to disk. Other decoder
17 // examples build upon this one.
19 // The details of the IVF format have been elided from this example for
20 // simplicity of presentation, as IVF files will not generally be used by
21 // your application. In general, an IVF file consists of a file header,
22 // followed by a variable number of frames. Each frame consists of a frame
23 // header followed by a variable length payload. The length of the payload
24 // is specified in the first four bytes of the frame header. The payload is
25 // the raw compressed data.
29 // For decoders, you only have to include `vpx_decoder.h` and then any
30 // header files for the specific codecs you use. In this case, we're using
33 // Initializing The Codec
34 // ----------------------
35 // The libvpx decoder is initialized by the call to vpx_codec_dec_init().
36 // Determining the codec interface to use is handled by VpxVideoReader and the
37 // functions prefixed with vpx_video_reader_. Discussion of those functions is
38 // beyond the scope of this example, but the main gist is to open the input file
39 // and parse just enough of it to determine if it's a VPx file and which VPx
40 // codec is contained within the file.
41 // Note the NULL pointer passed to vpx_codec_dec_init(). We do that in this
42 // example because we want the algorithm to determine the stream configuration
43 // (width/height) and allocate memory automatically.
47 // Once the frame has been read into memory, it is decoded using the
48 // `vpx_codec_decode` function. The call takes a pointer to the data
49 // (`frame`) and the length of the data (`frame_size`). No application data
50 // is associated with the frame in this example, so the `user_priv`
51 // parameter is NULL. The `deadline` parameter is left at zero for this
52 // example. This parameter is generally only used when doing adaptive post
55 // Codecs may produce a variable number of output frames for every call to
56 // `vpx_codec_decode`. These frames are retrieved by the
57 // `vpx_codec_get_frame` iterator function. The iterator variable `iter` is
58 // initialized to NULL each time `vpx_codec_decode` is called.
59 // `vpx_codec_get_frame` is called in a loop, returning a pointer to a
60 // decoded image or NULL to indicate the end of list.
62 // Processing The Decoded Data
63 // ---------------------------
64 // In this example, we simply write the encoded data to disk. It is
65 // important to honor the image's `stride` values.
69 // The `vpx_codec_destroy` call frees any memory allocated by the codec.
73 // This example does not special case any error return codes. If there was
74 // an error, a descriptive message is printed and the program exits. With
75 // few exceptions, vpx_codec functions return an enumerated error status,
76 // with the value `0` indicating success.
