Hi,
I do not see ability to specify aspect ratio in H.264 BP encoder for C66x DSP. Can you point me how to do it? If the ability is missing is it planned for implementation?

Hi Adriy,
You can specify the image width and image height as separate values in static and dynamic parameters of the codec.

Hi Vivek,
It is common in TV broadcasting that ratio of the video changes.
It can be 4:3 at the beginning (a TV program), then changed to 16:9 (while a movie), then back to 4:3. Aspect ratio value is stored in VUI part of the SPS in elementary H.264 stream. The resolution of the stream does not change.
So I need ability to specify ratio in H.264 encoder.
Andriy,
Vivek says that it is possible to provide aspect ratio to be sent into codec inside SPS and PP though static and dynamic parameters.

Hello Yashwant,
I do not see how to set ratio in codecs for C66x platform (H264 BP Encoder, Version 01.24.00.01):
http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/codecs/C6678_Video_Codecs/01_00_001/index_FDS.html
There is no such option not in static nor in dynamic parameters. If you know a way to do it please let me know.
But there is an option to set aspect ratio in dynamic parameters in H.264 codecs from TI for other platforms.

Andriy,
Current H264 BP Encode doesn't allow users to configure the aspect ratio. However, we have HP Encoder in development, currently finished beta and in final testing, that will be available online end of month. [HP encoder will obsolete BP, you can just use BP tools if necessary with the new HP Encode]. This new codec supports the configurability of aspect ratio.

Hi vivek,
Is there any update on the availability of this HP codec? This really makes time to market a lot easier, since most of the broadcasting features are needing this feature.
I wonder if the new HP codec also has de interlacing support.

Hi,
H264 HP Encoder is publicly available now @ http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/codecs/C6678/H264HP_E/01_00_00/index_FDS.html
