Function Documentation

◆ createVideoReader() [1/2]

Ptr<VideoReader> cv::cudacodec::createVideoReader ( const String filename,
const std::vector< int > &  sourceParams = {},
const VideoReaderInitParams  params = VideoReaderInitParams() 
)

#include <opencv2/cudacodec.hpp>

Creates video reader.

Parameters
filenameName of the input video file.
sourceParamsPass through parameters for VideoCapure. VideoCapture with the FFMpeg back end (CAP_FFMPEG) is used to parse the video input. The sourceParams parameter allows to specify extra parameters encoded as pairs (paramId_1, paramValue_1, paramId_2, paramValue_2, ...). See cv::VideoCaptureProperties e.g. when streaming from an RTSP source CAP_PROP_OPEN_TIMEOUT_MSEC may need to be set.
paramsInitializaton parameters. See cv::cudacodec::VideoReaderInitParams.

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