AVFrame

AVFrame是包含碼流參數(shù)較多的結(jié)構(gòu)體扣囊。本文將會(huì)詳細(xì)分析一下該結(jié)構(gòu)體里主要變量的含義和作用夷家。
首先看一下結(jié)構(gòu)體的定義（位于avcodec.h）：

/** 
 * Audio Video Frame. 
 * New fields can be added to the end of AVFRAME with minor version 
 * bumps. Similarly fields that are marked as to be only accessed by 
 * av_opt_ptr() can be reordered. This allows 2 forks to add fields 
 * without breaking compatibility with each other. 
 * Removal, reordering and changes in the remaining cases require 
 * a major version bump. 
 * sizeof(AVFrame) must not be used outside libavcodec.

AVFrame結(jié)構(gòu)體一般用于存儲(chǔ)原始數(shù)據(jù)（即非壓縮數(shù)據(jù)，例如對(duì)視頻來(lái)說(shuō)是YUV帝美，RGB碍彭，對(duì)音頻來(lái)說(shuō)是PCM），此外還包含了一些相關(guān)的信息悼潭。比如說(shuō)庇忌，解碼的時(shí)候存儲(chǔ)了宏塊類(lèi)型表，QP表女责，運(yùn)動(dòng)矢量表等數(shù)據(jù)漆枚。編碼的時(shí)候也存儲(chǔ)了相關(guān)的數(shù)據(jù)。因此在使用FFMPEG進(jìn)行碼流分析的時(shí)候抵知，AVFrame是一個(gè)很重要的結(jié)構(gòu)體墙基。
下面看幾個(gè)主要變量的作用（在這里考慮解碼的情況）：
**uint8_t *data[AV_NUM_DATA_POINTERS]：解碼后原始數(shù)據(jù)（對(duì)視頻來(lái)說(shuō)是YUV，RGB刷喜，對(duì)音頻來(lái)說(shuō)是PCM）
int linesize[AV_NUM_DATA_POINTERS]：data中“一行”數(shù)據(jù)的大小残制。注意：未必等于圖像的寬，一般大于圖像的寬掖疮。
int width, height：視頻幀寬和高（1920x1080,1280x720...）
int nb_samples：音頻的一個(gè)AVFrame中可能包含多個(gè)音頻幀初茶，在此標(biāo)記包含了幾個(gè)
int format：解碼后原始數(shù)據(jù)類(lèi)型（YUV420，YUV422浊闪，RGB24...）
int key_frame：是否是關(guān)鍵幀
enum AVPictureType pict_type：幀類(lèi)型（I,B,P...）
AVRational sample_aspect_ratio：寬高比（16:9恼布，4:3...）
int64_t pts：顯示時(shí)間戳
int coded_picture_number：編碼幀序號(hào)
int display_picture_number：顯示幀序號(hào)
int8_t *qscale_table：QP表
uint8_t mbskip_table：跳過(guò)宏塊表
int16_t (motion_val[2])[2]：運(yùn)動(dòng)矢量表
uint32_t *mb_type：宏塊類(lèi)型表
short dct_coeff：DCT系數(shù)螺戳，這個(gè)沒(méi)有提取過(guò)
int8_t ref_index[2]：運(yùn)動(dòng)估計(jì)參考幀列表（貌似H.264這種比較新的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)才會(huì)涉及到多參考幀）
int interlaced_frame：是否是隔行掃描
uint8_t motion_subsample_log2：一個(gè)宏塊中的運(yùn)動(dòng)矢量采樣個(gè)數(shù)，取log的
其他的變量不再一一列舉折汞，源代碼中都有詳細(xì)的說(shuō)明倔幼。在這里重點(diǎn)分析一下幾個(gè)需要一定的理解的變量：

1.data[]

對(duì)于packed格式的數(shù)據(jù)（例如RGB24），會(huì)存到data[0]里面爽待。
對(duì)于planar格式的數(shù)據(jù)（例如YUV420P）损同，則會(huì)分開(kāi)成data[0]，data[1]鸟款，data[2]...（YUV420P中data[0]存Y膏燃，data[1]存U，data[2]存V）
具體參見(jiàn)：FFMPEG 實(shí)現(xiàn) YUV何什，RGB各種圖像原始數(shù)據(jù)之間的轉(zhuǎn)換（swscale）

2.pict_type

包含以下類(lèi)型：

enum AVPictureType {  
    AV_PICTURE_TYPE_NONE = 0, ///< Undefined  
    AV_PICTURE_TYPE_I,     ///< Intra  
    AV_PICTURE_TYPE_P,     ///< Predicted  
    AV_PICTURE_TYPE_B,     ///< Bi-dir predicted  
    AV_PICTURE_TYPE_S,     ///< S(GMC)-VOP MPEG4  
    AV_PICTURE_TYPE_SI,    ///< Switching Intra  
    AV_PICTURE_TYPE_SP,    ///< Switching Predicted  
    AV_PICTURE_TYPE_BI,    ///< BI type  
};  

3.sample_aspect_ratio

寬高比是一個(gè)分?jǐn)?shù)组哩，F(xiàn)FMPEG中用AVRational表達(dá)分?jǐn)?shù)：

/** 
 * rational number numerator/denominator 
 */  
typedef struct AVRational{  
    int num; ///< numerator  
    int den; ///< denominator  
} AVRational; 

4.qscale_table

QP表指向一塊內(nèi)存，里面存儲(chǔ)的是每個(gè)宏塊的QP值富俄。宏塊的標(biāo)號(hào)是從左往右禁炒，一行一行的來(lái)的。每個(gè)宏塊對(duì)應(yīng)1個(gè)QP霍比。
qscale_table[0]就是第1行第1列宏塊的QP值幕袱；qscale_table[1]就是第1行第2列宏塊的QP值；qscale_table[2]就是第1行第3列宏塊的QP值悠瞬。以此類(lèi)推...
宏塊的個(gè)數(shù)用下式計(jì)算：
注：宏塊大小是16x16的们豌。
每行宏塊數(shù)：

int mb_stride = pCodecCtx->width/16+1  

宏塊的總數(shù)：

int mb_sum = ((pCodecCtx->height+15)>>4)*(pCodecCtx->width/16+1)  

5.motion_subsample_log2

1個(gè)運(yùn)動(dòng)矢量所能代表的畫(huà)面大小（用寬或者高表示浅妆，單位是像素）望迎，注意，這里取了log2凌外。
代碼注釋中給出以下數(shù)據(jù)：
4->16x16, 3->8x8, 2-> 4x4, 1-> 2x2
即1個(gè)運(yùn)動(dòng)矢量代表16x16的畫(huà)面的時(shí)候辩尊，該值取4；1個(gè)運(yùn)動(dòng)矢量代表8x8的畫(huà)面的時(shí)候康辑，該值取3...以此類(lèi)推

6.motion_val

運(yùn)動(dòng)矢量表存儲(chǔ)了一幀視頻中的所有運(yùn)動(dòng)矢量摄欲。
該值的存儲(chǔ)方式比較特別：

int16_t (*motion_val[2])[2];  

注釋中給了一段代碼：

int mv_sample_log2= 4 - motion_subsample_log2;  
int mb_width= (width+15)>>4;  
int mv_stride= (mb_width << mv_sample_log2) + 1;  
motion_val[direction][x + y*mv_stride][0->mv_x, 1->mv_y];  

該數(shù)據(jù)的結(jié)構(gòu)：
1.首先分為兩個(gè)列表L0和L1
2.每個(gè)列表（L0或L1）存儲(chǔ)了一系列的MV（每個(gè)MV對(duì)應(yīng)一個(gè)畫(huà)面，大小由motion_subsample_log2決定）
3.每個(gè)MV分為橫坐標(biāo)和縱坐標(biāo)（x,y）
注意疮薇，在FFMPEG中MV和MB在存儲(chǔ)的結(jié)構(gòu)上是沒(méi)有什么關(guān)聯(lián)的胸墙，第1個(gè)MV是屏幕上左上角畫(huà)面的MV（畫(huà)面的大小取決于motion_subsample_log2），第2個(gè)MV是屏幕上第1行第2列的畫(huà)面的MV按咒，以此類(lèi)推迟隅。因此在一個(gè)宏塊（16x16）的運(yùn)動(dòng)矢量很有可能如下圖所示（line代表一行運(yùn)動(dòng)矢量的個(gè)數(shù)）：

//例如8x8劃分的運(yùn)動(dòng)矢量與宏塊的關(guān)系：  
                //-------------------------  
                //|          |            |  
                //|mv[x]     |mv[x+1]     |  
                //-------------------------  
                //|          |            |

7.mb_type

宏塊類(lèi)型表存儲(chǔ)了一幀視頻中的所有宏塊的類(lèi)型。其存儲(chǔ)方式和QP表差不多。只不過(guò)其是uint32類(lèi)型的智袭，而QP表是uint8類(lèi)型的奔缠。每個(gè)宏塊對(duì)應(yīng)一個(gè)宏塊類(lèi)型變量。
宏塊類(lèi)型如下定義所示：

//The following defines may change, don't expect compatibility if you use them.  
#define MB_TYPE_INTRA4x4   0x0001  
#define MB_TYPE_INTRA16x16 0x0002 //FIXME H.264-specific

#define MB_TYPE_QUANT      0x00010000

//Note bits 24-31 are reserved for codec specific use (h264 ref0, mpeg1 0mv, ...)  

一個(gè)宏塊如果包含上述定義中的一種或兩種類(lèi)型吼野，則其對(duì)應(yīng)的宏塊變量的對(duì)應(yīng)位會(huì)被置1添坊。
注：一個(gè)宏塊可以包含好幾種類(lèi)型，但是有些類(lèi)型是不能重復(fù)包含的箫锤，比如說(shuō)一個(gè)宏塊不可能既是16x16又是8x8。

8.ref_index
運(yùn)動(dòng)估計(jì)參考幀列表存儲(chǔ)了一幀視頻中所有宏塊的參考幀索引雨女。這個(gè)列表其實(shí)在比較早的壓縮編碼標(biāo)準(zhǔn)中是沒(méi)有什么用的谚攒。只有像H.264這樣的編碼標(biāo)準(zhǔn)才有多參考幀的概念。但是這個(gè)字段目前我還沒(méi)有研究透氛堕。只是知道每個(gè)宏塊包含有4個(gè)該值馏臭，該值反映的是參考幀的索引。
