[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v4 4/5] lavc: Implement Dolby Vision RPU parsing

Niklas Haas ffmpeg at haasn.xyz
Sat Dec 11 14:17:46 EET 2021


From: Niklas Haas <git at haasn.dev>

Based on a mixture of guesswork, partial documentation in patents, and
reverse engineering of real-world samples. Confirmed working for all the
samples I've thrown at it.

Contains some annoying machinery to persist these values in between
frames, which is needed in theory even though I've never actually seen a
sample that relies on it in practice. May or may not work.

Since the distinction matters greatly for parsing the color matrix
values, this includes a small helper function to guess the right profile
from the RPU itself in case the user has forgotten to forward the dovi
configuration record to the decoder. (Which in practice, only ffmpeg.c
and ffplay do..)

Notable omissions:
- CRC32 verificaiton. This is based on the MPEG2 CRC32 type, which does
  not seem to be implemented in lavc. (And I don't care enough to do so)
- Linear interpolation support. Nothing documents this (beyond its
  existence) and no samples use it, so impossible to implement.
- All of the extension metadata blocks, but these contain values that
  are basically congruent with ST2094, HDR10, or other existing forms of
  side data, so I will defer parsing/attaching them to a future commit.
- The patent describes a mechanism for predicting coefficients from
  previous RPUs, but the bit for the flag whether to use the
  prediction deltas or signal entirely new coefficients does not seem to
  be present in actual RPUs, so we ignore this subsystem entirely.
