• OpenCV 4.5.2 takes a long time (>100ms) to retrieve a single frame from a webcam, C++ on Windows 10

  9 juin 2021, par Mustard Tiger

  I've been having a tough time getting my webcam working quickly with opencv. Frames take a very long time to read, (a recorded average of 124ms across 500 frames) I've tried on three different computers (running Windows 10) with a logitech C922 webcam. The most recent machine I tested on has a Ryzen 9 3950X, with 32gbs of ram ; no lack of power.

  


  Here is the code :

  


  cv::VideoCapture cap = cv::VideoCapture(m_cameraNum);&#xA;&#xA;// Check if camera opened successfully&#xA;if (!cap.isOpened())&#xA;{&#xA;    m_logger->critical("Error opening video stream or file\n\r");&#xA;    return -1;&#xA;}&#xA;&#xA;bool result = true;&#xA;result &amp;= cap.set(cv::CAP_PROP_FRAME_WIDTH, 1280);&#xA;result &amp;= cap.set(cv::CAP_PROP_FRAME_HEIGHT, 720);&#xA;&#xA;bool ready = false;&#xA;std::vector<string> timeLog;&#xA;timeLog.reserve(50000);&#xA;int i = 0;&#xA;&#xA;while (i &lt; 500)&#xA;{&#xA;    auto start = std::chrono::system_clock::now();&#xA;    &#xA;    cv::Mat img;&#xA;    ready = cap.read(img);&#xA;&#xA;    // If the frame is empty, break immediately&#xA;    if (!ready)&#xA;    {&#xA;        timeLog.push_back("continue");&#xA;        continue;&#xA;    }&#xA;&#xA;    i&#x2B;&#x2B;;&#xA;    auto end = std::chrono::system_clock::now();&#xA;    timeLog.push_back(std::to_string(std::chrono::duration_cast(end - start).count()));&#xA;}&#xA;&#xA;for (auto&amp; entry : timeLog)&#xA;    m_logger->info(entry);&#xA;&#xA;cap.release();&#xA;return 0;&#xA;</string>

  


  Notice that I write the elapsed time to a log file at the end of execution. The average time is 124ms for debug and release, and not one instance of "continue" after half a dozen runs.

  


  It doesn't matter if I use USB 2 or USB 3 ports (the camera is USB2) or if I run a debug build or a release build, the log file will show anywhere from 110ms to 130ms of time for each frame. The camera works fine in other app, OBS can get a smooth 1080@30fps or 720@60fps.

  


  Stepping through the debugger and doing a lot of Googling, I've learned the following about my system :

  


  

  • The backend chosen by default is DSHOW. GStreamer and FFMPEG are also available.

  


  • DSHOW uses FFMPEG somehow (it needs the FFMPEG dll) but I cannot use FFMPEG directly through opencv. Attempting to use cv::VideoCapture(m_cameraNum, cv::CAP_FFMPEG) always fails. It seems like Opencv's interface to FFMPEG is only capable of opening video files.

  


  • Microsoft really screwed up camera devices in Windows a few years back, not sure if this is related to my problem.

  


  


  Here's a short list of the fixes I have tried, most taken from older SO posts :

  


  

  • result &= cap.set(cv::CAP_PROP_FRAME_COUNT, 30) ; // Returns false, does nothing

  


  • result &= cap.set(cv::CAP_PROP_CONVERT_RGB, 0) ; // Returns true, does nothing

  


  • result &= cap.set(cv::CAP_PROP_MODE, cv::VideoWriter::fourcc('M', 'J', 'P', 'G')) ; // Returns false, does nothing

  


  • Set registry key from http://alax.info/blog/1693 that should disable the new Windows camera server.

  


  • Updated from 4.5.0 to 4.5.2, no change.

  


  • Asked device manager to find a newer driver, no newer driver found.

  


  


  I'm out of ideas. Any help ?

  


• Move packed B-frames message level to info.

  Move packed B-frames message level to info.
  Since they generally decode fine, printing it as a warning
  
  might not really be appropriate.

• ffmpeg to print encryption info of a AVPacket in a video stream

  14 février 2021, par Keogh Mathuin

  What I am looking for is a way of printing encryption info of each packet.

  


  With encrypted streams, AVPacket has a side_data of 'AV_PKT_DATA_ENCRYPTION_INFO (25)' type. There is the 'av_encryption_info_get_side_data' function that takes this data and returns AVEncryptionInfo, that struct (amongst other important info) includes a sequence of sizes that will tell you which parts of the AVPacket are encrypted.

  


  Ideally I think there probably is a nice elegant way of getting ffmpeg to print AVEncryptionInfo of each packet (like with trace_headers). It is possible to write my own function but my spidey senses tell me this might already exist as a ffmpeg option. I must admit at the moment I am using a debugger with a player and counting hex bytes of the side_data with info from the above function. I've done this too many times now for my liking !
