Media Foundation webcam video H264 encode/decode p

I have a solution, where I encode video (YUY2) samples from a webcam with Media Foundation's h264 encoder. Then I send it via TCP connection to another application that decodes the stream with Media Foundation's h264 decoder back to YUY2 format. After decoding, the video samples/images are presented at the screen using DirectX.

The problem is that between key-frames the video image gets increasing amount of artifacts. Artifacts disappear when a key-frame is received.

I dropped the TCP connection out of the scope and did the decoding immediately after the encode, but still I have the artifacts bothering me.

Here's the callback method that receives the samples from the webcam:

//-------------------------------------------------------------------
// OnReadSample
//
// Called when the IMFMediaSource::ReadSample method completes.
//-------------------------------------------------------------------

HRESULT CPreview::OnReadSample(
    HRESULT hrStatus,
    DWORD /* dwStreamIndex */,
    DWORD dwStreamFlags,
    LONGLONG llTimestamp,
    IMFSample *pSample      // Can be NULL
    )
{
    HRESULT hr = S_OK;
    IMFMediaBuffer *pBuffer = NULL;

    EnterCriticalSection(&m_critsec);

    if (FAILED(hrStatus))
    {
        hr = hrStatus;
    }

    if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
    {
        if (pSample)
        {
            IMFSample *pEncodedSample = NULL;
            hr = m_pCodec->EncodeSample(pSample, &pEncodedSample);
            if (hr == MF_E_TRANSFORM_NEED_MORE_INPUT || pEncodedSample == NULL)
            {
                hr = m_pReader->ReadSample((DWORD)MF_SOURCE_READER_FIRST_VIDEO_STREAM, 0, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);
                LeaveCriticalSection(&m_critsec);
                return S_OK;
            }

I've searched solution for this for a quite a while now and found one question that is defined quite similarly as my issue, but as it was for a different API, it was no help to me. FFMPEG decoding artifacts between keyframes

I'm a little late to the game here but I can confirm that the answer from Homepage is the correct solution. I also encountered this same problem but I was only using the decoder portion of this sample code. I was reading in an MP4 file and saw the increasing artifacts between key frames. As soon as I received a key frame, the image looked good and then progressively got worse. Here is the code I added within the Codec::InitializeDecoder():

// Set CODECAPI_AVLowLatencyMode
ICodecAPI *mpCodecAPI = NULL;
hr = pDecoderTransform->QueryInterface(IID_PPV_ARGS(&mpCodecAPI));
CHECK_HR(hr, "Failed to get ICodecAPI.\n");

VARIANT var;
var.vt = VT_BOOL;
var.boolVal = VARIANT_TRUE;
hr = mpCodecAPI->SetValue(&CODECAPI_AVLowLatencyMode, &var);
CHECK_HR(hr, "Failed to enable low latency mode.\n");

After I added these changes the program worked much better! Thanks to this software on GitHub for giving me the necessary code: https://github.com/GameTechDev/ChatHeads/blob/master/VideoStreaming/EncodeTransform.cpp

This question seems to have the answer but I still want to share my experience. Hope that can help who met the similar issue.

I also encountered the similar artifacts problem while decoding H264. However, in my case, the stream is from video capture device, and the artifacts do not disappear after 30-60 seconds from the start of the stream.

In my opinion, I guess the decoder with normal setting cannot decode the live streaming due to the low- latency. Thus, I try to enable the CODECAPI_AVLowLatencyMode which can set decode/encode mode to Low-latency for real-time communications or live capture. (To get more details, please refer the following link from MS https://msdn.microsoft.com/zh-tw/library/windows/desktop/hh447590(v=vs.85).aspx ) Fortunately, the problem has been solved and the decoder work normally.

Although there is a bit different of our problem, you can try to enable/disable CODECAPI_AVLowLatencyMode in your case, and I hope you can also have good news.

It sounds like quality/bitrate problem. 

pMFTOutputMediaType->SetUINT32(MF_MT_AVG_BITRATE, 500000);

500kbps is a too low value for the bitrate, you may try with something bigger like 5, 10 or 20Mbps.

I can suggest:

  1. Since you are creating the H264 encoder yourself, you can query it for ICodecAPI and try different settings. Namely, CODECAPI_AVEncCommonRateControlMode, CODECAPI_AVEncCommonQuality, CODECAPI_AVEncAdaptiveMode, CODECAPI_AVEncCommonQualityVsSpeed, CODECAPI_AVEncVideoEncodeQP.

  2. You might also try creating a hardware H264 encoder and use IMFDXGIDeviceManager with it (Windows 8 and above?)

It sounds like an IP(B) frame ordering problem.

Encoded frame order is not the same as decoded frame order. I did not test your code, but i think that the encoder provides frame in encoded order and that you need to reorder frame before rendering.
