## Using uvg266 VVC
|
|
|
|
### Debugging:
|
|
|
|
./uvg266 -i BQMall_832x480_60.yuv -o BQMall.266 -n 10 --no-sao --threads=0 --no-wpp -p 1 --rd=0 --fast-residual-cost=32 --no-deblock > debug.txt
|
|
|
|
./DecoderAnalyserApp -b BQMall.266 --TraceFile=trace.txt --TraceRule=D_COMMON,D_CABAC,D_SYNTAX,D_NALUNITHEADER,D_HEADER:poc>=0 -o rec.yuv
|
|
|
|
### Example:
|
|
|
|
uvg266 --input BQMall_832x480_60.yuv --output out.vvc
|
|
|
|
The mandatory parameters are input and output. If the resolution of the input file is not in the filename, or when pipe is used, the input resolution must also be given: ```--input-res=1920x1080```.
|
|
|
|
The default input format is 8-bit yuv420p for 8-bit and yuv420p10le for 10-bit. Input format and bitdepth can be selected with ```--input-format``` and ```--input-bitdepth```.
|
|
|
|
Speed and compression quality can be selected with ```--preset```, or by setting the options manually.
|
|
|

### LP-GOP syntax
|
|
The LP-GOP syntax is "lp-g(num)d(num)t(num)", where
|
|
- g = GOP length.
|
|
- d = Number of GOP layers.
|
|
- t = How many references to skip for temporal scaling, where 4 means only
|
|
every fourth picture needs to be decoded.
|

## uvg266 library
|
|
See [uvg266.h](src/uvg266.h) for the library API and its
|
|
documentation.
|
|
|
|
When using the static uvg266 library on Windows, macro `UVG_STATIC_LIB`
|
|
must be defined. On other platforms it's not strictly required.
|
|
|
|
The needed linker and compiler flags can be obtained with pkg-config.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Compiling uvg266
|
|
If you have trouble regarding compiling the source code, please make an
|
|
[issue](https://github.com/ultravideo/uvg266/issues) about in Github.
|
|
Others might encounter the same problem and there is probably much to
|
|
improve in the build process. We want to make this as simple as
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|
**CMakeLists.txt assumes that the x86 based CPUs are 64bit and support AVX2**
|
|
|
|
### CMake
|
|
Depending on the platform, some additional tools are required for compiling uvg266 with CMake.
|
|
For Ubuntu, the required packages are `build-essential cmake`.
|
|
|
|
Run the following commands to generate the build scripts
|
|
|
|
cd build
|
|
cmake ..
|
|
|
|
Then depending on your generator settings you might want to use Make to compile and install uvg266, force with `-G 'Unix Makefiles'` in CMake command
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
|
|
or Ninja, force with `-G Ninja` in the CMake command
|
|
|
|
ninja
|
|
sudo ninja install
|
|
|
|
Visual Studio natively supports opening the `CMakeLists.txt` of the CMake build package has been installed.
|
|
Otherwise CMake-CLI can be used to generate the Visual Studio project files.
|
|
**When building shared library with visual studio/MSys2/MinGW the tests will fail to link, so they are disabled**
|
|
|
|
### Docker
|
|
This project includes a [Dockerfile](./Dockerfile), which enables building for Docker.
|
|
Build using Docker: `docker build -t uvg266 .`
|
|
Example usage: `docker run -i -a STDIN -a STDOUT uvg266 -i - --input-res=320x240 -o - < testfile_320x240.yuv > out.266`
|
|
For other examples, see [Dockerfile](./Dockerfile)
|

## Contributing to uvg266
|
|
We are happy to look at pull requests in Github. There is still lots of work to be done.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Code documentation
|
|
You can generate Doxygen documentation pages by running the command
|
|
"doxygen docs.doxy". Here is a rough sketch of the module structure:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### For version control we try to follow these conventions:
|
|
- Master branch always produces a working bitstream (can be decoded with
|
|
VTM).
|
|
- Commits for new features and major changes/fixes put to a sensibly
|
|
named feature branch first and later merged to the master branch.
|
|
- Always merge the feature branch to the master branch, not the other
|
|
way around, with fast-forwarding disabled if necessary.
|
|
- Every commit should at least compile.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Testing
|
|
- Main automatic way of testing is with Github Actions. Commits, branches
|
|
and pull requests are tested automatically.
|
|
- Uninitialized variables and such are checked with Valgrind.
|
|
- Bitstream validity is checked with VTM.
|
|
- Compilation is checked on GCC and Clang on Linux, and Clang on OSX.
|
|
- Windows msys2 and msvc builds are checked automatically on Appveyor.
|
|
- If your changes change the bitstream, decode with VTM to check that
|
|
it doesn't throw checksum errors or asserts.
|
|
- If your changes shouldn't alter the bitstream, check that they don't.
|
|
- Automatic compression quality testing is in the works.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Unit tests
|
|
- There are some unit tests located in the tests directory. We would
|
|
like to have more.
|
|
- The Visual Studio project links the unit tests against the actual .lib
|
|
file used by the encoder. There is no Makefile as of yet.
|
|
- The unit tests use "greatest" unit testing framework. It is included
|
|
as a submodule, but getting it requires the following commands to be
|
|
run in the root directory of uvg266:
|
|
|
|
git submodule init
|
|
git submodule update
|
|
|
|
- On Linux, run ```make test```.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Code style
|
|
We try to follow the following conventions:
|
|
- C99 without features not supported by Visual Studio 2015 (VLAs).
|
|
- // comments allowed and encouraged.
|
|
- Follow overall conventions already established in the code.
|
|
- Indent by 2 spaces. (no tabs)
|
|
- { on the same line for control logic and on the next line for functions
|
|
- Reference and deference next to the variable name.
|
|
- Variable names in lowered characters with words divided by underscore.
|
|
- Maximum line length 79 characters when possible.
|
|
- Functions only used inside the module shouldn't be defined in the
|
|
module header. They can be defined in the beginning of the .c file if
|
|
necessary.
|
|
- Symbols defined in headers prefixed with uvg_ or UVG_.
|
|
- Includes in alphabetic order.
