FFmpeg 结构体学习(六): AVCodecContext 分析.md

1806 lines (1565 loc) · 53.4 KB

AVCodecContext是包含变量较多的结构体(感觉差不多是变量最多的结构体)。下面我们来分析一下该结构体里重要变量的含义和作用。

一、源码整理

首先我们先看一下结构体AVCodecContext的定义的结构体源码(位于libavcodec/avcodec.h):

/**
 * main external API structure.
 * New fields can be added to the end with minor version bumps.
 * Removal, reordering and changes to existing fields require a major
 * version bump.
 * Please use AVOptions (av_opt* / av_set/get*()) to access these fields from user
 * applications.
 * sizeof(AVCodecContext) must not be used outside libav*.

     * A demuxer should set this to what is stored in the field used to identify the codec.
     * If there are multiple such fields in a container then the demuxer should choose the one
     * which maximizes the information about the used codec.
     * If the codec tag field in a container is larger than 32 bits then the demuxer should
     * remap the longer ID to 32 bits with a table or other structure. Alternatively a new

二、AVCodecContext 重点字段

下面挑一些关键的变量来看看(这里只考虑解码):

enum AVMediaType codec_type:编解码器的类型(视频,音频...)

struct AVCodec  *codec:采用的解码器AVCodec(H.264,MPEG2...)

int bit_rate:平均比特率

uint8_t *extradata; int extradata_size:针对特定编码器包含的附加信息(例如对于H.264解码器来说,存储SPS,PPS等)

AVRational time_base:根据该参数,可以把PTS转化为实际的时间(单位为秒s)

int width, height:如果是视频的话,代表宽和高

int refs:运动估计参考帧的个数(H.264的话会有多帧,MPEG2这类的一般就没有了)

int sample_rate:采样率(音频)

int channels:声道数(音频)

enum AVSampleFormat sample_fmt:采样格式

int profile:型(H.264里面就有,其他编码标准应该也有)

int level:级(和profile差不太多)

在这里需要注意:AVCodecContext中很多的参数是编码的时候使用的,而不是解码的时候使用的。

其实这些参数都比较容易理解。就不多费篇幅了。在这里看一下以下几个参数:

1.codec_type

编解码器类型有以下几种:

enum AVMediaType {
    AVMEDIA_TYPE_UNKNOWN = -1,  ///< Usually treated as AVMEDIA_TYPE_DATA
    AVMEDIA_TYPE_VIDEO,
    AVMEDIA_TYPE_AUDIO,
    AVMEDIA_TYPE_DATA,          ///< Opaque data information usually continuous
    AVMEDIA_TYPE_SUBTITLE,
    AVMEDIA_TYPE_ATTACHMENT,    ///< Opaque data information usually sparse
    AVMEDIA_TYPE_NB
};

2.sample_fmt

在FFMPEG中音频采样格式有以下几种:

enum AVSampleFormat {
    AV_SAMPLE_FMT_NONE = -1,
    AV_SAMPLE_FMT_U8,          ///< unsigned 8 bits
    AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S16,         ///< signed 16 bits
    AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S32,         ///< signed 32 bits
    AV_SAMPLE_FMT_FLT,         ///< float
    AV_SAMPLE_FMT_DBL,         ///< double
 
    AV_SAMPLE_FMT_U8P,         ///< unsigned 8 bits, planar
    AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S16P,        ///< signed 16 bits, planar
    AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S32P,        ///< signed 32 bits, planar
    AV_SAMPLE_FMT_FLTP,        ///< float, planar
    AV_SAMPLE_FMT_DBLP,        ///< double, planar
 
    AV_SAMPLE_FMT_NB           ///< Number of sample formats. DO NOT USE if linking dynamically
};

3.profile

在FFMPEG中型有以下几种,可以看出AAC,MPEG2,H.264,VC-1,MPEG4都有型的概念。
