DVR_RDK 4.0 encode Interlaced input chroma issues

Robert Lancaster1
Prodigy 195 points

We are having an issue encoding two interlaced inputs of differing resolutions on RDK 4.0 with the DM8168/9.  If VIP0 has a 16-bit 480i30 input and VIP1 has a 16-bit 1080i30 input there are noticeable chroma errors in the encoder output:

However, if both inputs are switched to be 1080i30 the encoder output is OK:

The pass-through of the inputs looks OK so it appears that the error is happening in the encoder itself or is only in the bottom field of the capture.  Any suggestions on what could be going wrong here?

Here is the description of our current usecase:

    Can you try disabling processMulti by changing the following code:

    /dvr_rdk/mcfw/interfaces/link_api/system_debug.h

     

    change

    //#define SYSTEM_DEBUG_DISABLE_PROCESS_MULTI

    to

    #define SYSTEM_DEBUG_DISABLE_PROCESS_MULTI //Uncomment the define

     

    After this change do clean and rebuild firmwares.

    Also pls ensure you have set fieldMergeEncode is set to FALSE in encLink create params.

    Also if you are enabling tiler at nsf output try disabling tiled output and check if there is any change in behaviour

    Hey Badri,

    Thank you for your suggestions.  I tried disabling PROCESS_MULTI and the behavior is still the same.  fieldMergedEncode is set to false and the tiler was not turned on for the NSF link.  However, to be sure the NSF link was not the problem I hooked the merge from the capture directly to the encoder so it is no longer in the pipeline.

    After these changes the behavior is still the same.  2 1080i30 inputs work great, but 1 480i30 and 1 1080i30 show the chroma errors. 

    Any other ideas?

    Pls share the logs from link create onwards and also output of Vsys_printDetailedStatistics.Collect logs with PROCESS_MULTI  disabled, tiler disabled, fieldMergedEncode  disabled.Also is it possible to feed a solid color to as capture input. I want to check the corruption with known input.

    Would color bars be acceptable?

    I have some more images with both color bars and solid color inputs.  The images are taken with your suggested settings above.  The first image is with a 480i 100% yellow image (left) and a 1080i 100% blue image (right)

    The second image is with 75% color bars on both the 480i input (left) and the 1080i input (right).

    The log from the encoder is pasted below with the print detailed statistics output:

    Log shows encoder is created for progressive encode. I thought you said you are doing interlaced encode

    We detect the Interlaced or Progressive video on the fly and recreate the H264_alg when a switch is detected.  This happens here in the log:

    It looks like you are initially creating for progressive and switching to interlaced based on rtCHannelInfo. This appear to be changes on top of standard RDK release. Can you start of with creating encoder for interlaced input instead. Also encLink supports a feature to switch from interlaced to progressive by dynamically deleting and creating the encoder algorithm.Are you using this ENC_LINK_ALG_SWITCH API ?

    I don't see any references to ENC_LINK_ALG_SWITCH in the src_bios6 code.  We wrote our own switch function in the the enclink_common.c code we have been using it since RDK 3.0 to dynamically set the H264 level.  I can start the link in INTERLACED MODE and see if that changes things.

    Refer the usecase ti816x/multich_hd_sdi_dvr.c for example usage of ENC_LINK_CMD_SWITCH .CHeck the function multich_hd_sd_dvr_select_all_interlaced() function in this file.

  • 0 in reply to Badri Narayanan

    I set things up to start the encode link in interlaced mode and turned off our code that deletes the alg and creates a new one when the h264 level changes so there are no alg restarts.  We still see the chroma issue I describe before.  See the screenshot 480i (left) 1080i (right) and the log below.

    We have also found that if we remove one of the inputs while the system is running the chroma problem goes away, but when we add it back the issue returns as well.

    -- For the 480i channel also is the encoder created for 1080 resolution or do you create only for 480i resolution ?

    -- Why is the height 536 (1920 x 536) ? It should be created for 1920 x 544

    This looks like reference buffer corruption.ENabling tiler should change the behaviour as tiled allocation is not linear. Did you see any difference when enabling tiler at NSF output ? Continue to use the modification of create time encoder configuration for futher testing and avoid use of dynamically switching when debugging this issue

    The encoder is created with a 1080 resolution to ensure enough space is allocated to allow changes in standard on the input up to 1080p resolutions.  Is this incorrect?

    The height being used is what is returned by the capture driver as the height.  So I have tried several things based on your comments.

    I tried simply forcing the height of the 1080i frames to 544 this did not fix the problem but the output was the correct height after that.  I also tried setting the first encoder instance to 720x240 however this resulted in a scrambled output.

    So I reverted my changes back to the state they were in for my last post and enabled the tiler on the NSF link and added it back to the pipeline.  This did fix the chroma issue.  However, this will not be a viable option for us going forward since when I input a lower resolution after the encoder has started I get the following assertion:

    [m3vpss ]  81325: Assertion @ Line: 72 in utils/src/tile_alg_binpack.c: (TilerAlloc_ResolutionClassInfo[i].width > prevResWidth) && (TilerAlloc_ResolutionClassInfo[i].height > prevResHeight) : failed !!!

    It seems the tiler does not support reallocation for a lower resolution, and we need to be able to change resolutions on the fly using the rtUpdateParams.

    So is the miss reported height from the capture the root of the problem?  If we fix this would we be able to avoid using the Tiler?

    The code in /dvr_rdk/mcfw/src_bios6/utils/src/tile_alg_binpack.c should be

    UTILS_assert((TilerAlloc_ResolutionClassInfo[i].width >= prevResWidth)
                         &&
                         (TilerAlloc_ResolutionClassInfo[i].height >= prevResHeight));

    This would resolve the assert issue but the fact that you are getting this issue indicates encoder is being created with wrong width and height. Can you attach your encLink folder.I want to compare with base DVR RDK 4.0 version and review the modifications.

    Also add a print in

    /dvr_rdk/mcfw/src_bios6/links_m3video/iva_enc/encLink_h264.c

     

    static Int enclink_h264_set_static_params(IH264ENC_Params * staticParams,
                                              EncLink_AlgCreateParams *
                                              algCreateParams)

        /* Both width & height needs to be align with 2 bytes */
        staticParams->videnc2Params.maxHeight =
                      VpsUtils_align(algCreateParams->maxHeight, 2);

        staticParams->videnc2Params.maxWidth =
                      VpsUtils_align(algCreateParams->maxWidth, 16);

      Vps_printf("ENCLINK_H264:Codec Width:%d,Height:%d",

                       staticParams->videnc2Params.maxWidth ,

                       staticParams->videnc2Params.maxHeight );

     

     

    For 1080i interlaced content static params height  should be 540 but looks like encoder getting created for 1080 height instead

    Setting the maxHeight to 540 instead of 1080 in interlaced mode fixes this problem for us.  Thank you for your support.
