Everything that is currently merged into the official 4.x branch will be part of 4.9.0 when that is released which will probably be before the end of the year.
Hi @cudawarped ,
Sorry for my ignorance on the release plan of OpenCV…Just out of curiosity, your PR merges to the branch 4.x
of opencv_contrib
, but I am aware that there is a separate 5.x
branch. How will these two repos reconcile functions added to 4.x
only? I suppose this would not be an automatic process given the different changes made to 5.x
only?
See
and for an example of how the 5.x branch is updated
Windows Media Player and Windows 11’s “Photos” can’t play .h264 file.
Hi @piyushupload1 ,
@cudawarped has updated the repo, you can use the latest 4.x
branch to save .mp4 file directly from cv::cudacodec::VideoReader
.
You may also take a look at this example I prepared.
Just tested, works like a charm! Compared with the normal instance that uses FFmpeg backend (which is also using hardware-acceleration), the cudacodec
version can cut CPU usage by ~70%.
Hi @cudawarped ,
One more minor issue: not sure if this README.md is still relevant, but all cuda-related modules are not included in it.
It could do with being updated but so could the CUDA docs in general they are really out of date. I started updating them ages ago but didn’t have time to finish the job. Maybe next year.
perhaps enough of a project for a GSoC worker and you could be a mentor/supervisor
