multiple reference frame



by checking http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_frame_(video)

I found that the maximum number of concurrent reference frames supported by H.264 is 16.

Q1. what's the maximum reference frame could be referred in rdk3.0

  • In DVR RDK encoder supports single reference frame.

    Decoder supports upto 16 frames. The number of output buffers in decoder link should be numRefFrames + 4.

  • In DVR RDK encoder supports single reference frame.

    - did you mean only one referrence frame is supported in encoder?

    Decoder supports upto 16 frames. The number of output buffers in decoder link should be numRefFrames + 4.

    -did you mean the default referrence frame in decoder is 4 and we can adjust the numberRefFrames to maximum value 12?

    Yes in DVR RDK we support only single reference frame. B-frame encoding is not supported.

    No , Default for decoder is 1 reference frame. Application has to ensure number of decoder output buffers is greater than the number of reference frames used in the stream and set the decPrm numBufPerCh parameter correctly.No other configuration is required.
