12// Simple Encoder
13// ==============
14//
15// This is an example of a simple encoder loop. It takes an input file in
16// YV12 format, passes it through the encoder, and writes the compressed
17// frames to disk in IVF format. Other decoder examples build upon this
18// one.
19//
20// The details of the IVF format have been elided from this example for
21// simplicity of presentation, as IVF files will not generally be used by
22// your application. In general, an IVF file consists of a file header,
23// followed by a variable number of frames. Each frame consists of a frame
24// header followed by a variable length payload. The length of the payload
25// is specified in the first four bytes of the frame header. The payload is
26// the raw compressed data.
27//
28// Standard Includes
29// -----------------
30// For encoders, you only have to include `aom_encoder.h` and then any
31// header files for the specific codecs you use. In this case, we're using
32// aom.
33//
34// Getting The Default Configuration
35// ---------------------------------
36// Encoders have the notion of "usage profiles." For example, an encoder
37// may want to publish default configurations for both a video
38// conferencing application and a best quality offline encoder. These
39// obviously have very different default settings. Consult the
40// documentation for your codec to see if it provides any default
41// configurations. All codecs provide a default configuration, number 0,
42// which is valid for material in the vacinity of QCIF/QVGA.
43//
44// Updating The Configuration
45// ---------------------------------
46// Almost all applications will want to update the default configuration
47// with settings specific to their usage. Here we set the width and height
48// of the video file to that specified on the command line. We also scale
49// the default bitrate based on the ratio between the default resolution
50// and the resolution specified on the command line.
51//
52// Initializing The Codec
53// ----------------------
54// The encoder is initialized by the following code.
55//
56// Encoding A Frame
57// ----------------
58// The frame is read as a continuous block (size width * height * 3 / 2)
59// from the input file. If a frame was read (the input file has not hit
60// EOF) then the frame is passed to the encoder. Otherwise, a NULL
61// is passed, indicating the End-Of-Stream condition to the encoder. The
62// `frame_cnt` is reused as the presentation time stamp (PTS) and each
63// frame is shown for one frame-time in duration. The flags parameter is
64// unused in this example.
65
66// Forced Keyframes
67// ----------------
68// Keyframes can be forced by setting the AOM_EFLAG_FORCE_KF bit of the
69// flags passed to `aom_codec_control()`. In this example, we force a
70// keyframe every <keyframe-interval> frames. Note, the output stream can
71// contain additional keyframes beyond those that have been forced using the
72// AOM_EFLAG_FORCE_KF flag because of automatic keyframe placement by the
73// encoder.
74//
75// Processing The Encoded Data
76// ---------------------------
77// Each packet of type `AOM_CODEC_CX_FRAME_PKT` contains the encoded data
78// for this frame. We write a IVF frame header, followed by the raw data.
79//
80// Cleanup
81// -------
82// The `aom_codec_destroy` call frees any memory allocated by the codec.
83//
84// Error Handling
85// --------------
86// This example does not special case any error return codes. If there was
87// an error, a descriptive message is printed and the program exits. With
88// few exeptions, aom_codec functions return an enumerated error status,
89// with the value `0` indicating success.
90//
91// Error Resiliency Features
92// -------------------------
93// Error resiliency is controlled by the g_error_resilient member of the
94// configuration structure. Use the `decode_with_drops` example to decode with
95// frames 5-10 dropped. Compare the output for a file encoded with this example
96// versus one encoded with the `simple_encoder` example.
