VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version?

Added by Evren Yurtesen almost 5 years ago

I have "HTS Tvheadend 4.2.9~pre+201910311127-0~built201910311332~gitcfa450e~ubuntu19.10.1" installed from mamarley/stable repository.

I am able to use VAAPI with ffmpeg locally. In Tvheadend stream I see 'hevc_vaapi: H265/HEVC (VAAPI)'

But if I try to use it when recording, it just fails:

Do I need 4.3 version of tvheadend?

Thanks!

Well I upgraded to `4.3.0~pre+201911040835-0~built201911041332~gitfda89e8~ubuntu19.10.1` but it does not seem to work either.

I am able to use MPEG-TS Spawn with the following command

ffmpeg -vaapi_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -i pipe:0 -vf 'yadif,format=nv12,hwupload' -map 0:a? -map 0:s? -map 0:v? -c:a aac -c:s copy -c:v hevc_vaapi -f mpegts pipe:1

But not sure why tvheadend is not able to use it directly. I am still seeing <disabled, no valid input>.
Stranglely streaming does not work at all either and I think it said 'Filtered' for all fields. It is very late (or early) right now and I have to look at it again later. :(

If I disable deinterlacing I get the following error:

I installed it from Michael Marley's daily git builds repository, that is why the version number looks like that.

RE: VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version? - Added by saen acro almost 5 years ago

Troblem can be everywhere becose using os libs

Try to build it as this

RE: VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version? - Added by Evren Yurtesen almost 5 years ago

What do you mean by using OS libs? What else can it use?

When mamarley/ppa is built against Ubuntu 19.10, it uses the same libs that I have as I am using 19.10 also. Is there any reason why me building it should result in any different result? I feel that we need to debug the issue instead of trying to randomly rebuild. Because when it does not work, we still won't know what is the problem. By some miracle if it works, then we won't know why it worked, which makes it not very useful.

I will never the less build it, but you think the configure arguments given are fine? Because I will use exactly same as what mamarley's build is using I think. He seemed to have everything necessary enabled...

By the way, ffmpeg works for encoding with vaapi and kodi is able to use it for hardware decoding if it makes any difference...

RE: VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version? - Added by saen acro almost 5 years ago

Static library for ffmpeg and codecs is disabled
TVH can build own internal version of ffmpeg + codecs

So you wanted static build of ffmpeg etc. OK!
I am building using Autobuild.sh, below is what it said... I guess it satisfies what you want to accomplish?

It looks like tvheadend downloaded some old version which does not have the fix:
http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=commitdiff;h=4361293fcf59edb56879c36edcd25f0a91e0edf8

I am trying to build it with gcc8 again...

RE: VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version? - Added by Evren Yurtesen almost 5 years ago

Well it now compiled, but it does exactly same thing... I am using KODI as client to stream... So what now?

This is what it says with default options, there is sound but no video..

RE: VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version? - Added by Evren Yurtesen almost 5 years ago

AMF only supports H264 on Linux and Tvheadend does not support it. It has to be selected like VAAPI. So that patch is not useful for the issue at hand. FFMPEG already works with VAAPI.

There is a problem with Tvheadend. I think it is using something wrong when starting encoding.

I think either Jaroslav or lekma know this better as they seem to have coded the VAAPI support. This needs debugging at Tvheadend side, I need some pointers to how to debug it and what to test.
I could buy them an AMD GPU if they would be interested :)

RE: VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version? - Added by M A Ben Amara almost 5 years ago

would also be nice to add support for 10bit hevc stream decode

i always get this error when trying to transcode from 2160p to 1080p streams ...

vaapi: decode: unsupported pixel format: yuv420p10le

so i guess the buildin ffmpeg is for 8bit only, i ll have to check how it ends up when using hevc as codec (output) if that makes a difference.

im running tvheadend actually in a docker enviroment (lsio) but i assume its dependant to the tvheadend ffmpeg used.

h264 is all fine here, no issues here

RE: VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version? - Added by Evren Yurtesen almost 5 years ago

@"M A Ben Amara" I am not sure how what you are saying is related to the problem. First of all I am not using hardware decoding. My problem is about encoding, not about decoding. You will end up exactly in the same place when you encode using HEVC because you have problem decoding the stream.

Anyway, I am already receiving transmission in h264. I need it in h265 to save space when recording. I am not sure why I would use docker for this purpose. I built tvheadend myself and let it download and compile ffmpeg version it likes. It should work, but it does not.

Hopefully somebody with an AMD GPU can chime in and tell if they could get it working.

RE: VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version? - Added by M A Ben Amara almost 5 years ago

you are right, i have a different issue and it doesnt belong here, i ll make a new topic with some debugging when i find time. and no, i didnt wanted to advice to use a docker, sorry.

my issue is only hevc decoding (encoding to hevc seems to work here)

sorry for the wrong post.

RE: VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version? - Added by Evren Yurtesen almost 5 years ago

You say encoding to HEVC works. Does it preserve Aspect Ratio? Because I am able to encode using FFMPEG from command line but aspect ratio gets screwed for some channels which has special AR setting. Seems to be a known bug with VAAPI hardware encoding using FFMPEG.

if you mean me, yes, attached a sample, aspect is also as it should be.

RE: VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version? - Added by Evren Yurtesen almost 5 years ago

Yes @"M A BEN Amara". VLC does not seem to be showing all the media information. I tested the following file with VLC and it does not show the aspect ratio. (although it should)
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-IDAYhfj93aPJPizWKttpfGV-KVPKKSx/view
If I open it with MPC-HC I see the aspect ratio printed in media info. See my screenshot on the left is original video and on the right is VAAPI encoded to h264.

Perhaps the problem is more difficult to see with FullHD broadcast as the SD broadcast here is 720x576 and it looks like a box (roughly ~ 4:3) without the correct aspect ratio. But FullHD is 1920x1080 and it is natively 16:9 so it will look the same even with this information is lost via VAAPI. Try a channel with more square resolution :)

See this ticket for more information. There is link to encoded version of the same video and ffmpeg encoding information:
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/8376

Obviously the issue in this case is ffmpeg and different than my original issue with transcoding/tvheadend (because tvheadend transcoding does not work at all.). But it would be interesting to see if tvheadend has the same problem or not.

RE: VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version? - Added by M A Ben Amara almost 5 years ago

i tested ~ 30 channels, all where good, also 4:3 shows ... actually i only use h264 source and no more 576i mpeg2 sources, didnt tested them, if i may find some time i can add such a channel and look if thats also working here.

about VLC not showing the aspect ratio, yes, but the display switches to the fitting screen, i know that "morphed" behavior from early days when i made some wrong settings in encoding ...

and as you said i have different issues with hevc decoding so im wrong here

RE: VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version? - Added by Evren Yurtesen almost 5 years ago

@"M A Ben Amara" It is interesting. Anyway, this issue is irrelevant to my problem. But if you want you can test from command line using ffmpeg/vaapi as described here with given small sample files.
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/8376

RE: VAAPI transcoding problem? am I using wrong version? - Added by M A Ben Amara almost 5 years ago

i made some small samples, when u want take a look ... onedrive

https://1drv.ms/u/s!ApY1s9BRY-iSqEOFPmSbWsKuXuV7?e=cwn2Ox

sources are still all europe streams, also added 2 x 4:3 aspect ratio streams, all encoded to hevc 720 (see attachement),
and im too lazy to add mpeg2 576i streams as source, so all are based on h264 sources ...

i look now further with my issue with hw decoding hevc and this crap error
vaapi: decode: unsupported pixel format: yuv420p10le
