FFmpeg:使用自定义线程池进行并行编码

8

我尝试通过FFmpeg的c API实现并行编码。看起来这个功能已经可以很好地使用了,但是我稍微改变了目标:

在现有的应用程序中,我已经有一个线程池可用。我想要重复使用我的应用程序中的现有线程池,而不是在FFmpeg中使用另一个线程池。通过研究最新的FFmpeg trunk文档,这似乎是完全可行的。

使用一些FFmpeg示例代码,我创建了一个演示我想要实现的样本应用程序(见下文)。该示例应用程序使用mp2v编解码器生成仅视频的MPEG2 TS。

我遇到的问题是自定义的“thread_execute”或“thread_execute2”从未被调用。尽管编解码器似乎表明支持线程。请注意,我尚未连接线程池。我的第一个目标是调用自定义函数指针。

我尝试在FFmpeg邮件列表上寻求帮助,但没有得到回复。

你好,下面的答案对您有帮助吗?它仍然有效吗?我想限制我的应用程序使用的线程数量并将它们固定在特定的核心上。 - Incomputable
是的,但这也取决于编解码器。例如,x264有自己的内部线程池,无法被覆盖。 - ZeroDefect
在我的应用程序中,为每个AVCodecContext*(我有多个视频流)创建了一个线程池,是否可能告诉libx264只使用一个并停止创建线程? - Incomputable

你需要按照以下步骤进行操作:
  1. 调用 avcodec_alloc_context3(...)。此调用将在新上下文中设置默认的执行和执行2函数。
  2. 设置 c->thread_count = number_of_threads_in_your_thread_pool()
  3. 调用 avcodec_open2(...)
  4. c->executec->execute2 指向你的功能。
  5. 调用 ff_thread_free(c)。这个函数没有在libavcodec头文件中公开,但你可以添加以下代码行:

    extern "C" void ff_thread_free(AVCodecContext *s);

缺点是libavcodec会在调用 avcodec_open2(...) 后创建内部线程池,并且该线程池将在调用 ff_thread_free() 后被删除。 内部线程池非常高效,但如果您计划并行编码多个视频流,则不太适合。在这种情况下,libavcodec将为每个编码视频流创建单独的线程池。

@ZeroDefect 好的,我成功地设置了AVCodecContext以使用自己的线程池.. 我会在上面更新我的答案。 - Juga
非常感谢分享!我将在2017年11月14日尝试一下。我会回复您反馈的。 :) - ZeroDefect
