Function Documentation

createVideoReader() [1/2]

Ptr<VideoReader> cv::cudacodec::createVideoReader	(	const String &	filename,
		const bool	rawMode = false
	)

#include <opencv2/cudacodec.hpp>

Creates video reader.

Parameters

filename	Name of the input video file.
rawMode	Allow the raw encoded data which has been read up until the last call to grab() to be retrieved by calling retrieve(rawData,RAW_DATA_IDX).

FFMPEG is used to read videos. User can implement own demultiplexing with cudacodec::RawVideoSource

createVideoReader() [2/2]

Ptr<VideoReader> cv::cudacodec::createVideoReader	(	const Ptr< RawVideoSource > &	source,
		const bool	rawMode = false
	)

#include <opencv2/cudacodec.hpp>

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

Parameters

source	RAW video source implemented by user.
rawMode	Allow the raw encoded data which has been read up until the last call to grab() to be retrieved by calling retrieve(rawData,RAW_DATA_IDX).

createVideoWriter() [1/4]

Ptr<cudacodec::VideoWriter> cv::cudacodec::createVideoWriter	(	const String &	fileName,
		Size	frameSize,
		double	fps,
		SurfaceFormat	format = SF_BGR
	)

#include <opencv2/cudacodec.hpp>

Creates video writer.

Parameters

fileName	Name of the output video file. Only AVI file format is supported.
frameSize	Size of the input video frames.
fps	Framerate of the created video stream.
format	Surface format of input frames ( SF_UYVY , SF_YUY2 , SF_YV12 , SF_NV12 , SF_IYUV , SF_BGR or SF_GRAY). BGR or gray frames will be converted to YV12 format before encoding, frames with other formats will be used as is.

The constructors initialize video writer. FFMPEG is used to write videos. User can implement own multiplexing with cudacodec::EncoderCallBack .

createVideoWriter() [2/4]

Ptr<cudacodec::VideoWriter> cv::cudacodec::createVideoWriter	(	const String &	fileName,

		double	fps,
		const EncoderParams &	params,
		SurfaceFormat	format = SF_BGR
	)

#include <opencv2/cudacodec.hpp>

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

Parameters

fileName	Name of the output video file. Only AVI file format is supported.
frameSize	Size of the input video frames.

params	Encoder parameters. See cudacodec::EncoderParams .
format	Surface format of input frames ( SF_UYVY , SF_YUY2 , SF_YV12 , SF_NV12 , SF_IYUV , SF_BGR or SF_GRAY). BGR or gray frames will be converted to YV12 format before encoding, frames with other formats will be used as is.

createVideoWriter() [3/4]

Ptr<cudacodec::VideoWriter> cv::cudacodec::createVideoWriter	(	const Ptr< EncoderCallBack > &	encoderCallback,
		Size	frameSize,
		double	fps,
		SurfaceFormat	format = SF_BGR
	)

#include <opencv2/cudacodec.hpp>

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

Parameters

encoderCallback	Callbacks for video encoder. See cudacodec::EncoderCallBack . Use it if you want to work with raw video stream.
frameSize	Size of the input video frames.
fps	Framerate of the created video stream.
format	Surface format of input frames ( SF_UYVY , SF_YUY2 , SF_YV12 , SF_NV12 , SF_IYUV , SF_BGR or SF_GRAY). BGR or gray frames will be converted to YV12 format before encoding, frames with other formats will be used as is.

createVideoWriter() [4/4]

Ptr<cudacodec::VideoWriter> cv::cudacodec::createVideoWriter	(	const Ptr< EncoderCallBack > &	encoderCallback,
		Size	frameSize,
		double	fps,
		const EncoderParams &	params,
		SurfaceFormat	format = SF_BGR
	)

#include <opencv2/cudacodec.hpp>

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

Parameters

encoderCallback	Callbacks for video encoder. See cudacodec::EncoderCallBack . Use it if you want to work with raw video stream.
frameSize	Size of the input video frames.
