Detailed Description

Video encoder interface.

Typical usage:

  • Call Create() to create a new video encoder resource.
  • Call GetSupportedFormats() to determine which codecs and profiles are available.
  • Call Initialize() to initialize the encoder for a supported profile.
  • Call GetVideoFrame() to get a blank frame and fill it in, or get a video frame from another resource, e.g. PPB_MediaStreamVideoTrack.
  • Call Encode() to push the video frame to the encoder. If an external frame is pushed, wait for completion to recycle the frame.
  • Call GetBitstreamBuffer() continuously (waiting for each previous call to complete) to pull encoded pictures from the encoder.
  • Call RecycleBitstreamBuffer() after consuming the data in the bitstream buffer.
  • To destroy the encoder, the plugin should release all of its references to it. Any pending callbacks will abort before the encoder is destroyed.

Available video codecs vary by platform. All: vp8 (software). ChromeOS, depending on your device: h264 (hardware), vp8 (hardware)


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Default constructor for creating an is_null() VideoEncoder object.

pp::VideoEncoder::VideoEncoder(const InstanceHandleinstance) [explicit]

A constructor used to create a VideoEncoder and associate it with the provided Instance.

Parameters:
[in]instanceThe instance with which this resource will be associated.

The copy constructor for VideoEncoder.

Parameters:
[in]otherA reference to a VideoEncoder.

Member Function Documentation

Closes the video encoder, and cancels any pending encodes.

Any pending callbacks will still run, reporting PP_ERROR_ABORTED . It is not valid to call any encoder functions after a call to this method. Note: Destroying the video encoder closes it implicitly, so you are not required to call Close().

int32_t pp::VideoEncoder::Encode(const VideoFramevideo_frame,
bool force_keyframe,
const CompletionCallbackcc 
)

Encodes a video frame.

Parameters:
[in]video_frameThe VideoFrame to be encoded.
[in]force_keyframeA PP_Bool> specifying whether the encoder should emit a key frame for this video frame.
[in]callbackA CompletionCallback to be called upon completion. Plugins that pass VideoFrame resources owned by other resources should wait for completion before reusing them.
Returns:
An int32_t containing an error code from pp_errors.h. Returns PP_ERROR_FAILED if Initialize() has not successfully completed.
int32_t pp::VideoEncoder::GetBitstreamBuffer(const CompletionCallbackWithOutput< PP_BitstreamBuffer > & cc)

Gets the next encoded bitstream buffer from the encoder.

Parameters:
[out]bitstream_bufferA PP_BitstreamBuffer containing encoded video data.
[in]callbackA CompletionCallbackWithOutput to be called upon completion with the next bitstream buffer. The plugin can call GetBitstreamBuffer from the callback in order to continuously "pull" bitstream buffers from the encoder.
Returns:
An int32_t containing an error code from pp_errors.h. Returns PP_ERROR_FAILED if Initialize() has not successfully completed. Returns PP_ERROR_INPROGRESS if a prior call to GetBitstreamBuffer() has not completed.

Gets the coded size of the video frames required by the encoder.

Coded size is the logical size of the input frames, in pixels. The encoder may have hardware alignment requirements that make this different from |input_visible_size|, as requested in the call to Initialize().

Parameters:
[in]coded_sizeA Size to hold the coded size.
Returns:
An int32_t containing a result code from pp_errors.h. Returns PP_ERROR_FAILED if Initialize() has not successfully completed.

Gets the number of input video frames that the encoder may hold while encoding.

If the plugin is providing the video frames, it should have at least this many available.

Returns:
An int32_t containing the number of frames required, or an error code from pp_errors.h. Returns PP_ERROR_FAILED if Initialize() has not successfully completed.
int32_t pp::VideoEncoder::GetSupportedProfiles(const CompletionCallbackWithOutput< std::vector< PP_VideoProfileDescription > > & cc)

Gets an array of supported video encoder profiles.

These can be used to choose a profile before calling Initialize().

Parameters:
[in]callbackA CompletionCallbackWithOutput to be called upon completion with the PP_VideoProfileDescription structs.
Returns:
If >= 0, the number of supported profiles returned, otherwise an error code from pp_errors.h.

Gets a blank video frame which can be filled with video data and passed to the encoder.

Parameters:
[in]callbackA CompletionCallbackWithOutput to be called upon completion with the blank VideoFrame resource.
Returns:
An int32_t containing an error code from pp_errors.h.
int32_t pp::VideoEncoder::Initialize(const PP_VideoFrame_Format & input_format,
const Sizeinput_visible_size,
const PP_VideoProfile & output_profile,
const uint32_t initial_bitrate,
PP_HardwareAcceleration acceleration,
const CompletionCallbackcc 
)

Initializes a video encoder resource.

This should be called after GetSupportedProfiles() and before any functions below.

Parameters:
[in]input_formatThe PP_VideoFrame_Format of the frames which will be encoded.
[in]input_visible_sizeA Size specifying the dimensions of the visible part of the input frames.
[in]output_profileA PP_VideoProfile specifying the codec profile of the encoded output stream.
[in]accelerationA PP_HardwareAcceleration specifying whether to use a hardware accelerated or a software implementation.
[in]callbackA CompletionCallback to be called upon completion.
Returns:
An int32_t containing an error code from pp_errors.h. Returns PP_ERROR_NOTSUPPORTED if video encoding is not available, or the requested codec profile is not supported. Returns PP_ERROR_NOMEMORY if frame and bitstream buffers can't be created.
void pp::VideoEncoder::RecycleBitstreamBuffer(const PP_BitstreamBuffer & bitstream_buffer)

Recycles a bitstream buffer back to the encoder.

Parameters:
[in]bitstream_bufferA PP_BitstreamBuffer that is no longer needed by the plugin.
void pp::VideoEncoder::RequestEncodingParametersChange(uint32_t bitrate,
uint32_t framerate 
)

Requests a change to encoding parameters.

This is only a request, fulfilled on a best-effort basis.

Parameters:
[in]bitrateThe requested new bitrate, in bits per second.
[in]framerateThe requested new framerate, in frames per second.
