Video Encode (nvmvid_enc)

The NvMedia Video Encode sample application, nvmvid_enc, demonstrates using the NvMedia video encode API to encode H.264/H.265/VP9 bitstreams using the NVIDIA Encoder (NVENC) hardware engine.
The application accepts raw YUV frames as input and produces a compressed elementary stream as output. It supports encoding of:
H.264 Baseline
H.264 Main profiles up to Level 4.1
H.264 High profiles up to Level 4.1
H.265 Main profiles up to level 6.0 with various configuration parameters
VP9 profile 0
Test cases are also provided to cover all feature testing.

Architecture

The NvMedia Video Encode application’s encoding APIs call the low-level hardware driver and issue encoding commands to NVENC microcode for each picture. The NVENC microcode accesses the hardware engine and schedules the encoding commands. It returns the encode status, including bitstreams, statistics, etc. The low-level driver is responsible for writing high-level headers, including SPS, PPS, VUI, and SEI. Slice header and data is handled by NVENC microcode hardware. The application performs further packetization or encryption of the encoded stream.
Buffer allocation is managed between the low-level driver and the application. The application manages the input YUV surfaces and handles any picture reordering needed for I/B/P encoding. The low-level driver maintains the reference picture surfaces, the output bitstream buffers, and the internal status buffers.
Encoder Software Stack
This diagram shows the components of the application’s software stack.
High Level Data Flow
The application collects frames from a source such as a camera or a raw data file and queues them to the NvMedia low-level driver. The application can choose to apply deinterlacing, noise reduction, image stabilization or other preprocessing to the input frames before encoding. After the NvMedia Encoder instance is created, the application sends the encoder configurations and the input video surface buffers to the driver for encoding. The application waits for the encode frame to be complete, then reads out the encode bitstream.
The application saves the bitstream to an output file. The reference picture surfaces, the output bitstream buffers, and the internal status buffers are created and maintained inside the NvMedia low-level driver. For each input picture, the driver provides a configuration data structure (a picture setup) that contains encoder parameters along with encode commands to the NVENC microcode. This structure contains:
Buffer information (current picture, reference pictures)
Sequence and picture parameter set information and rate control configuration
Other module configurations as needed
Component Descriptions
Name
Description
nvmvid_enc (the sample application)
Calls the NvMedia encode APIs. On receipt of the headers and bitstream, packetizes or encrypts the encoded stream and saves the result to an output file.
NvMedia encoder API

The driver creates and maintains reference picture surfaces, the output bitstream buffers, and the internal status buffers.
For each input picture, the driver provides a configuration data structure (a picture setup) that contains encoder parameters along with the encode commands to the NVENC microcode. This structure contains:
Buffer information (current picture, reference pictures)

NvMedia Low-Level Encode Driver Inputs and Outputs
This diagram shows the low-level encode driver’s inputs and outputs:
Picture buffers must be in block linear format. Pitch linear input data is not supported due to inefficiency in the memory accesses. Picture buffers must also be in NV12 format.
The picture dimensions of the encoded streams are multiples of X pixels, where X is:
16 for H.264 encoding
32 for H.265 encoding
64 for VP9 encoding
If the input needs cropping, it is cropped at the right and bottom of the picture. If the picture’s horizontal or vertical dimension is not a multiple of X pixels, the application pads the picture on the right or bottom side.

Creating the Configuration File

When you run nvmvid_enc you must provide it with a configuration file. A default configuration is available at:
<top>/drive-t186ref-linux/samples/nvmedia/vid_enc/enc_h264_sample.cfg
The configuration file contains parameters with values, groups or sections of parameters, and optional comments.
Parameters
Each parameter must be on a separate line. A parameter line contains the following tokens:
The parameter name
An equal sign (“=”)
A value
An optional comment
Here is an example of a parameter with a commend:
InputFile = "configs/input.yuv" # File to encode
An unknown parameter in a configuration file does not cause a failure; the parameter is ignored. An ill-formed parameter line causes the application to fail.
Comments
A comment consists of a pound sign (a ‘#’) and any following text to the end of the line. A comment may appear at the end of any parameter line, or on a line by itself.
Sections
A section is a named group of parameters, containing a specific set of parameters. For example, the group RC_Params contains rate control parameters. You can define one or more RC_Params sections and use the parameter values they set by referring to them in the EPRateControlSectionIndex and EPPRCParamsIndex parameters, described later in this topic.
Available section types include:
EncodePic_Params: Per-frame parameters
EncodePicH264_Params: Specific H.264 per-frame parameters
Payload: Different arrays of SEI payloads can be used for every picture in H.264 encoding
EncodePicH265_Params: Consists of specific H.265 per frame parameters
EncodePicVP9_Params: Specific VP9 per frame parameters
PayloadH265: Different arrays of SEI payloads can be used for every picture in H.265 encoding
RC_Params: Rate Control parameters
QP_Params: Quantization parameters
Each section begins with a line in the form:
[<section name> <section number>]
The rest of the section consists of parameter values to be defined in the group. A specific set of parameters may be defined in each group, as shown in Configuration File Parameters.
For example, these lines define three QP_Params groups:
[QP_Params 1]
QPBSlice = 30 # Quant. parameter for B slices (0-51) - qpInterB
QPISlice = 28 # Quant. parameter for I Slices (0-51) - qpIntra
QPPSlice = 28 # Quant. parameter for P Slices (0-51) - qpInterP
 
[QP_Params 2]
QPBSlice = 40 # Quant. parameter for B slices (0-51) - qpInterB
QPISlice = 38 # Quant. parameter for I Slices (0-51) - qpIntra
QPPSlice = 38 # Quant. parameter for P Slices (0-51) - qpInterP
 
[QP_Params 3]
QPBSlice = 50 # Quant. parameter for B slices (0-51) - qpInterB
QPISlice = 48 # Quant. parameter for I Slices (0-51) - qpIntra
QPPSlice = 48 # Quant. parameter for P Slices (0-51) - qpInterP

Running the Sample Application

The nvmvid_enc application supports an input file of type YUV.
To run the application
1. Prepare the input file.
The input is a single YUV file.
To encode YUV files, the InputFile parameter must specify the pathname on the command line or in a configuration file.
2. Create a configuration for the encoding process.
4. Launch the application.

Examples

These examples demonstrate some common usage scenarios.
To perform basic H.264 / H.265 / VP9 encoding
Enter the command:

Where <enc_sample>.cfg is either enc_h264_sample.cfg or simple_h265_cif.cfg or simple_vp9_cif.cfg.
H.26x/VP9 encoding is performed using parameters supplied in the enc_h26x_sample.cfg or simple_vp9_cif.cfg file. The input and output file information is supplied through the command line using the ‑p switch.
To use a specific H.264 / H.265 configuration file
Enter the command:
./nvmvid_enc -cf <enc_sample>.cfg -sf enc_h26x_aqiyo_specific.cfg
Where <enc_sample>.cfg is either enc_h264_sample.cfg or simple_h265_cif.cfg.
Encoding is performed using parameters supplied in the enc_h26x_sample.cfg and enc_h26x_aqiyo_specific.cfg files. Parameter values are taken from the specific configuration file.

H.265 Specific Per-Frame Encoding Parameters: EncodePicH265_Params Parameter Group
This table describes the H.265 specific group of parameters. These parameters must be specified on a per-frame basis.
Parameter
Description
EPH265PicParamsIndex
Codec specific parameters: EncodePicH265_Params section index to be used.
H265PayloadArrayIndexes
Array of Payload section indexes to be used.
H265PayloadArraySize

VP9 Configuration Parameters
This table describes the VP9 configuration parameters:
Parameter
Description
VP9Features
Specifies bitwise OR'ed configuration feature flags. The flags are:
ENABLE_LOOP_FILTER_PARAMS (1 << 0),
ENABLE_QUANTIZATION_PARAMS (1 << 1),
ENABLE_TRANSFORM_MODE (1 << 2),
ENABLE_HIGH_PRECISION_MV (1 << 3),
DISABLE_ERROR_RESILIENT (1 << 4),
ENABLE_PROFILING (1 << 5),
