• Why opencv videowriter is so slow ?

  22 février 2021, par user2267367

  Hi stackoverflow community,
I have a tricky problem and I need your help to understand what is going on here.
My program captures frames from a video grabber card (Blackmagic) which just works fine so far, at the same time I display the captured images with opencv (cv::imshow) which works good as well (But pretty cpu wasting).
The captured images are supposed to be stored on the disk as well, for this I put the captured Frames (cv::Mat) on a stack, to finally write them async with opencv :

  


  cv::VideoWriter videoWriter(path, cv::CAP_FFMPEG, fourcc, fps, *size);
videoWriter.set(cv::VIDEOWRITER_PROP_QUALITY, 100);

int id = metaDataWriter.insertNow(path);

while (this->isRunning) {

    while (!this->stackFrames.empty()) {

        cv:Mat m = this->stackFrames.pop();

        videoWriter << m;
    }
    
}

videoWriter.release();


  


  This code is running in an additional thread and will be stopped from outside.
The code is working so far, but it is sometimes pretty slow, which means my stack size increases and my system runs out of ram and get killed by the OS.

  


  Currently it is running on my developing system :

  


  

  • Ubuntu 18.04.05

  


  • OpenCV 4.4.0 compiled with Cuda

  


  • Intel i7 10. generation 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia p620, M.2 SSD

  


  


  Depending on the codec (fourcc) this produces a high CPU load. So far I used mainly "MJPG", "x264". Sometimes even MJPG turns one core of the CPU to 100% load, and my stack raises until the programs run out of run. After a restart, sometimes, this problem is fixed, and it seems the load is distributed over all cores.

  


  Regarding to the Intel Doc. for my CPU, it has integrated hardware encoding/decoding for several codecs. But I guess opencv is not using them. Opencv even uses its own ffmpeg and not the one of my system. Here is my build command of opencv :

  


  cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE \
-D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local \
-D WITH_TBB=ON \
-D WITH_CUDA=ON \
-D BUILD_opencv_cudacodec=OFF \
-D ENABLE_FAST_MATH=1 \
-D CUDA_FAST_MATH=1 \
-D WITH_CUBLAS=1 \
-D WITH_V4L=ON \
-D WITH_QT=OFF \
-D WITH_OPENGL=ON \
-D WITH_GSTREAMER=ON \
-D OPENCV_GENERATE_PKGCONFIG=ON \
-D OPENCV_ENABLE_NONFREE=ON \
-D WITH_FFMPEG=1 \
-D OPENCV_EXTRA_MODULES_PATH=../../opencv_contrib/modules \
-D WITH_CUDNN=ON \
-D OPENCV_DNN_CUDA=ON \
-D CUDA_ARCH_BIN=6.1 ..


  


  I just started development with linux and C++, before I was working with Java/Maven, so the use of cmake is still a work in progress, pls go easy on me.

  


  Basically my question is, how can I make the video encoding/writing faster, use the hardware acceleration at best ?
Or if you think there is something else fishy, pls let me know.

• ffmpeg capture video and audio produced corrupt output

  18 décembre 2020, par wheelie tips

  I have two separate FFmpeg commands that each works well on its own, one for capturing video and the other for capturing audio from the same device ; the captured audio is :

  


  ffmpeg -f alsa -thread_queue_size 16384 -i hw:CARD=C4K,DEV=0 -acodec aac /home/pi/Videos/temp.wav


  


  and the captured video is :

  


  ffmpeg -y -nostdin -f v4l2 -threads auto -input_format yuyv422 -fflags +genpts -flags +global_header -thread_queue_size 16384 -i /dev/video0 -s 1280x720 -r 25 -vcodec h264_v4l2m2m -num_output_buffers 32 -num_capture_buffers 16 -keyint_min 25 -force_key_frames "expr:gte(t,n_forced*1)" -g 50 -b:v 6M -pix_fmt nv12 -f mpegts -muxdelay 0 -muxpreload 0 -movflags +faststart /home/pi/Videos/output.mp4


  


  I’ve tried to combine the two into one call to produce one video file with the audio channel, but whatever I’ve been attempting, the results output were messed up ; obviously, I’m missing something, for example, my latest attempt prodused a frozen image video with the audio channel :

  


  ffmpeg -y -nostdin -f v4l2 -threads auto -input_format yuyv422 -fflags +genpts -flags +global_header -thread_queue_size 16384 -i /dev/video0 -f alsa -thread_queue_size 16384 -i hw:CARD=C4K,DEV=0 -acodec aac -s 1280x720 -r 25 -vcodec h264_v4l2m2m -num_output_buffers 32 -num_capture_buffers 16 -keyint_min 25 -force_key_frames "expr:gte(t,n_forced*1)" -g 50 -b:v 6M -b:a 128K -pix_fmt nv12 -f mpegts -muxdelay 0 -muxpreload 0 -movflags +faststart /home/pi/Videos/output.mp4 -loglevel debug


  


  the full output of the above command :

• Encode video with H.264 using FFmpeg in Windows

  4 novembre 2019, par cbuchart

  I’m trying to encode a video with H.264 using FFmpeg (AV_CODEC_ID_H264), but I’m unable to init the codec correctly. No issues at all when using other codec like AV_CODEC_ID_MPEG1VIDEO.

  avcodec_register_all();
  
  
  
  auto codec = avcodec_find_encoder(AV_CODEC_ID_H264);
  
  if (!codec) { return false; }
  
  
  
  auto codec_context = avcodec_alloc_context3(codec);
  
  if (!codec_context) { return false; }
  
  
  
  codec_context->codec_id = codec->id;
  
  codec_context->codec_type = AVMEDIA_TYPE_VIDEO;
  
  
  
  codec_context->width = w; // w = 1280 on tests
  
  codec_context->height = h; // h = 1024 on tests
  
  codec_context->bit_rate = w * h * 4;
  
  
  
  codec_context->time_base = { 1, fps }; // fps = 50 on tests
  
  codec_context->framerate = { fps, 1 };
  
  
  
  codec_context->gop_size = 10;
  
  
  
  codec_context->pix_fmt = AV_PIX_FMT_YUV420P;
  
  
  
  if (codec->id == AV_CODEC_ID_H264) {
  
      av_opt_set(codec_context->priv_data, "preset", "veryfast", 0);
  
  }
  
  
  
  if (avcodec_open2(codec_context, codec, nullptr) < 0) { return false; } // < Fails here

  The first error message I received is :

  [h264_amf @ 08e75900] DLL amfrt32.dll failed to open

  As far as I was able to find, that DLL belongs to the Advanced Media Framework, a SDK to access HW acceleration from AMD hardware. I don’t own an AMD card, so I don’t have such drivers nor SDK installed in my computer. Anyway, I downloaded the SDK and copied driver’s DLLs to my binaries directory. The missing DLL error was removed, but, as expected, the module was not correctly initialized :

  [h264_amf @ 0375b600] CreateComponent(AMFVideoEncoderVCE_AVC) failed with error 13

  Question : Am I missing anything (parameters, dependencies) ? Is there any way to disable the AMF acceleration or to mark it as optional / auto-detect / whatever ?

  PS : I’m expecting to run the encoding executable in a very heterogeneous client-base, assuming Windows 10 and barely anything else, so I can’t mark as mandatory vendor-specific accelerations.

  PS : I’m using the pre-compiled LGPL build of FFmpeg 4.2.1 from https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/ for Windows 32 bits. My code is being compiled using Visual Studio 2017.

  If the problem is in the pre-compiled version, I’m happy with re-building it. If so, which configuration parameters should I use when building x264 or ffmpeg then ?
