13Codec Control Reference

16Below all controls within the Codec control class are described. First
17the generic controls, then controls specific for certain hardware.
18
19.. note::
20
21 These controls are applicable to all codecs and not just MPEG. The
22 defines are prefixed with V4L2_CID_MPEG/V4L2_MPEG as the controls
23 were originally made for MPEG codecs and later extended to cover all
24 encoding formats.

2656
2657``V4L2_CID_MPEG_MFC51_VIDEO_DECODER_H264_DISPLAY_DELAY_ENABLE (boolean)``
2658 If the display delay is enabled then the decoder is forced to return
2659 a CAPTURE buffer (decoded frame) after processing a certain number
2660 of OUTPUT buffers. The delay can be set through
2661 ``V4L2_CID_MPEG_MFC51_VIDEO_DECODER_H264_DISPLAY_DELAY``. This
2662 feature can be used for example for generating thumbnails of videos.

2664
2665``V4L2_CID_MPEG_MFC51_VIDEO_DECODER_H264_DISPLAY_DELAY (integer)``
2666 Display delay value for H264 decoder. The decoder is forced to
2667 return a decoded frame after the set 'display delay' number of
2668 frames. If this number is low it may result in frames returned out
2669 of display order, in addition the hardware may still be using the
2670 returned buffer as a reference picture for subsequent frames.
2671
2672``V4L2_CID_MPEG_MFC51_VIDEO_H264_NUM_REF_PIC_FOR_P (integer)``

2722 Adaptive rate control for smooth region. Valid only when H.264 and
2723 macroblock level RC is enabled
2724 (``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_MB_RC_ENABLE``). Applicable to the H264
2725 encoder.

2774``V4L2_CID_MPEG_MFC51_VIDEO_RC_FIXED_TARGET_BIT (integer)``
2775 Enable rate-control with fixed target bit. If this setting is
2776 enabled, then the rate control logic of the encoder will calculate
2777 the average bitrate for a GOP and keep it below or equal the set
2778 bitrate target. Otherwise the rate control logic calculates the
2779 overall average bitrate for the stream and keeps it below or equal
2780 to the set bitrate. In the first case the average bitrate for the
2781 whole stream will be smaller then the set bitrate. This is caused
2782 because the average is calculated for smaller number of frames, on
2783 the other hand enabling this setting will ensure that the stream
2784 will meet tight bandwidth constraints. Applicable to encoders.

3597 constrained intra prediction in which intra largest coding unit (LCU)
3598 prediction is performed by using residual data and decoded samples of
3599 neighboring intra LCU only. Setting the value to 1 enables constant intra

3617 prediction filtering process in the CVS when set to 1. Indicates bi-linear
3618 interpolation is not used in the CVS when set to 0.

3620``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_HEVC_MAX_NUM_MERGE_MV_MINUS1 (integer)``
3621 Indicates maximum number of merge candidate motion vectors.
3622 Values are from 0 to 4.
3623
3624``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_HEVC_TMV_PREDICTION (boolean)``
3625 Indicates temporal motion vector prediction for HEVC encoder. Setting it to
3626 1 enables the prediction. Setting it to 0 disables the prediction.
3627
3628``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_HEVC_WITHOUT_STARTCODE (boolean)``
3629 Specifies if HEVC generates a stream with a size of the length field
3630 instead of start code pattern. The size of the length field is configurable
3631 through the V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_HEVC_SIZE_OF_LENGTH_FIELD control. Setting
3632 the value to 0 disables encoding without startcode pattern. Setting the
3633 value to 1 will enables encoding without startcode pattern.
