Header packet was corrupt/invalid.
#define OC_BADPACKET -24 |
Packet is corrupt.
#define OC_DISABLED -11 |
Requested action is disabled.
#define OC_DUPFRAME 1 |
Packet is a dropped frame.
#define OC_EINVAL -10 |
Library encountered invalid internal data.
#define OC_FAULT -1 |

Packet is an (ignorable) unhandled extension.
#define OC_NOTFORMAT -21 |

#define OC_VERSION -22 |
Bitstream version is not handled.
#define TH_DECCTL_GET_PPLEVEL_MAX (1) |
Get the maximum post-processing level.
The decoder supports a post-processing filter that can improve the appearance of the decoded images. This returns the highest level setting for this post-processor, corresponding to maximum improvement and computational expense.
#define TH_DECCTL_SET_GRANPOS (5) |
Set the granule position.
Call this after a seek, to update the internal granulepos in the decoder, to insure that subsequent frames are marked properly. If you track timestamps yourself and do not use the granule postion returned by the decoder, then you do not need to use this control.
#define TH_DECCTL_SET_PPLEVEL (3) |
Set the post-processing level.
Sets the level of post-processing to use when decoding the compressed stream. This must be a value between zero (off) and the maximum returned by TH_DECCTL_GET_PPLEVEL_MAX.
#define TH_ENCCTL_GET_SPLEVEL_MAX (12) |
Gets the maximum speed level.
Higher speed levels favor quicker encoding over better quality per bit. Depending on the encoding mode, and the internal algorithms used, quality may actually improve, but in this case bitrate will also likely increase. In any case, overall rate/distortion performance will probably decrease. The maximum value, and the meaning of each value, may change depending on the current encoding mode (VBR vs. CQI, etc.).
[out] | buf | int: The maximum encoding speed level. |
OC_FAULT | theora_state or buf is NULL . | |
OC_EINVAL | buf_sz is not sizeof(int) . | |
OC_IMPL | Not supported by this implementation in the current encoding mode. |
#define TH_ENCCTL_SET_KEYFRAME_FREQUENCY_FORCE (4) |
Sets the maximum distance between key frames.
This can be changed during an encode, but will be bounded by 1<<th_info::keyframe_granule_shift
. If it is set before encoding begins, th_info::keyframe_granule_shift will be enlarged appropriately.
[in] | buf | ogg_uint32_t : The maximum distance between key frames. |
[out] | buf | ogg_uint32_t : The actual maximum distance set. |
OC_FAULT | theora_state or buf is NULL . | |
OC_EINVAL | buf_sz is not sizeof(ogg_uint32_t) . | |
OC_IMPL | Not supported by this implementation. |
#define TH_ENCCTL_SET_QUANT_PARAMS (2) |
Sets the quantization parameters to use.
The parameters are copied, not stored by reference, so they can be freed after this call. NULL
may be specified to revert to the default parameters.
[in] | buf | th_quant_info |
OC_FAULT | theora_state is NULL . | |
OC_EINVAL | Encoding has already begun, the quantization parameters are not acceptable to this version of the encoder, buf is NULL and buf_sz is not zero, or buf is non-NULL and buf_sz is not sizeof(th_quant_info) . | |
OC_IMPL | Not supported by this implementation. |
#define TH_ENCCTL_SET_SPLEVEL (14) |
Sets the speed level.
By default a speed value of 1 is used.
[in] | buf | int: The new encoding speed level. 0 is slowest, larger values use less CPU. |
OC_FAULT | theora_state or buf is NULL . | |
OC_EINVAL | buf_sz is not sizeof(int) , or the encoding speed level is out of bounds. The maximum encoding speed level may be implementation- and encoding mode-specific, and can be obtained via TH_ENCCTL_GET_SPLEVEL_MAX. | |
OC_IMPL | Not supported by this implementation in the current encoding mode. |
#define TH_ENCCTL_SET_VP3_COMPATIBLE (10) |
Disables any encoder features that would prevent lossless transcoding back to VP3.
This primarily means disabling block-level QI values and not using 4MV mode when any of the luma blocks in a macro block are not coded. It also includes using the VP3 quantization tables and Huffman codes; if you set them explicitly after calling this function, the resulting stream will not be VP3-compatible. If you enable VP3-compatibility when encoding 4:2:2 or 4:4:4 source material, or when using a picture region smaller than the full frame (e.g. a non-multiple-of-16 width or height), then non-VP3 bitstream features will still be disabled, but the stream will still not be VP3-compatible, as VP3 was not capable of encoding such formats. If you call this after encoding has already begun, then the quantization tables and codebooks cannot be changed, but the frame-level features will be enabled or disabled as requested.
[in] | buf | int : a non-zero value to enable VP3 compatibility, or 0 to disable it (the default). |
[out] | buf | int : 1 if all bitstream features required for VP3-compatibility could be set, and 0 otherwise. The latter will be returned if the pixel format is not 4:2:0, the picture region is smaller than the full frame, or if encoding has begun, preventing the quantization tables and codebooks from being set. |
OC_FAULT | theora_state or buf is NULL . | |
OC_EINVAL | buf_sz is not sizeof(int) . | |
OC_IMPL | Not supported by this implementation. |
typedef struct theora_comment theora_comment |
Comment header metadata.
This structure holds the in-stream metadata corresponding to the 'comment' header packet.
Meta data is stored as a series of (tag, value) pairs, in length-encoded string vectors. The first occurence of the '=' character delimits the tag and value. A particular tag may occur more than once. The character set encoding for the strings is always UTF-8, but the tag names are limited to case-insensitive ASCII. See the spec for details.
In filling in this structure, theora_decode_header() will null-terminate the user_comment strings for safety. However, the bitstream format itself treats them as 8-bit clean, and so the length array should be treated as authoritative for their length.
enum theora_colorspace |
enum theora_pixelformat |

ogg_int64_t theora_granule_frame | ( | theora_state * | th, | |
ogg_int64_t | granulepos | |||
) |
Convert a granulepos to an absolute frame index, starting at 0.
The granulepos is interpreted in the context of a given theora_state handle.
Note that while the granulepos encodes the frame count (i.e. starting from 1) this call returns the frame index, starting from zero. Thus One can calculate the presentation time by multiplying the index by the rate.
th | A previously initialized theora_state handle (encode or decode) | |
granulepos | The granulepos to convert. |
-1 | The given granulepos is undefined (i.e. negative) |
Thus function was added in the 1.0alpha4 release.
int theora_granule_shift | ( | theora_info * | ti | ) |
Report the granulepos shift radix.
When embedded in Ogg, Theora uses a two-part granulepos, splitting the 64-bit field into two pieces. The more-significant section represents the frame count at the last keyframe, and the less-significant section represents the count of frames since the last keyframe. In this way the overall field is still non-decreasing with time, but usefully encodes a pointer to the last keyframe, which is necessary for correctly restarting decode after a seek.
This function reports the number of bits used to represent the distance to the last keyframe, and thus how the granulepos field must be shifted or masked to obtain the two parts.
Since libtheora returns compressed data in an ogg_packet structure, this may be generally useful even if the Theora packets are not being used in an Ogg container.
ti | A previously initialized theora_info struct |
This function was added in the 1.0alpha5 release.
double theora_granule_time | ( | theora_state * | th, | |
ogg_int64_t | granulepos | |||
) |
Convert a granulepos to absolute time in seconds.
The granulepos is interpreted in the context of a given theora_state handle, and gives the end time of a frame's presentation as used in Ogg mux ordering.
th | A previously initialized theora_state handle (encode or decode) | |
granulepos | The granulepos to convert. |
-1. | The given granulepos is undefined (i.e. negative), or | |
-1. | The function has been disabled because floating point support is not available. |
void theora_info_clear | ( | theora_info * | c | ) |
Clear a theora_info structure.
All values within the given theora_info structure are cleared, and associated internal codec setup data is freed.
c | A theora_info struct to initialize. |
void theora_info_init | ( | theora_info * | c | ) |
Initialize a theora_info structure.
All values within the given theora_info structure are initialized, and space is allocated within libtheora for internal codec setup data.
c | A theora_info struct to initialize. |
int theora_packet_isheader | ( | ogg_packet * | op | ) |
Report whether a theora packet is a header or not This function does no verification beyond checking the header flag bit so it should not be used for bitstream identification; use theora_decode_header() for that.
op | An ogg_packet containing encoded theora data. |
1 | The packet is a header packet | |
0 | The packet is not a header packet (and so contains frame data) |
Thus function was added in the 1.0alpha4 release.
int theora_packet_iskeyframe | ( | ogg_packet * | op | ) |
Report whether a theora packet is a keyframe or not.
op | An ogg_packet containing encoded theora data. |
1 | The packet contains a keyframe image | |
0 | The packet is contains an interframe delta | |
-1 | The packet is not an image data packet at all |
Thus function was added in the 1.0alpha4 release.
ogg_uint32_t theora_version_number | ( | void | ) |
Retrieve a 32-bit version number.
This number is composed of a 16-bit major version, 8-bit minor version and 8 bit sub-version, composed as follows:
(VERSION_MAJOR<<16) + (VERSION_MINOR<<8) + (VERSION_SUB)
const char* theora_version_string | ( | void | ) |
Retrieve a human-readable string to identify the encoder vendor and version.
