Do you happen to have ffmpeg installed? I'm not really sure how best
to list a Perl module dependency on a C library. Alien::ffmpeg seems to
recompile the whole library, which shouldn't be necessary for people who
already have ffmpeg installed.
The code for drawing on top of the overlay is on github:
https://github.com/frezik/UAV-Pilot/blob/master/lib/UAV/Pilot/SDL/VideoOverlay/Reticle.pm
The "after 'init_video_overlay'" sub gets and stores the RGB color
mapping. Drawing the lines is done in process_video_overlay().
Thanks,

Hi, I am unable tun run that script either:

perl: symbol lookup error:

Do you have an example of your line-drawing problem somewhere?

Well, that's a bug. I'll have to update that script with the right
module name. Thanks for letting me know.
That script only dumps the video to a file without displaying it.
The
script 'uav_video_display', released with version 0.5, is the
important one here.
I ended up solving my overlay issue by doing most of it in C. I
probably needed to do this, anyway, as doing it with Perl
datastructures would have meant creating an SV for each value in the
three YUV channels and pushing them onto an AV. 720p is 0.9
megapixels, so that would have been a very expensive operation to do
30 times a second to handle realtime video.
The C technique is used in the recently released UAV::Pilot v0.5.
I have run across a new problem when trying to draw on top of the
YUV
overlay. I can draw a line using the RGB colorspace, but it shows
up
black. Maybe I need to convert RGB to YUV? Or perhaps draw on a
separate surface and blit that on top?
Thanks,

Is there something I can do in order to test your example script?

I've made a simplified, standalone example:
http://pastebin.com/dPPNc8VL
The big array at the top is a single YUV420P frame. Expected
behavior
is to display that frame in a window for 5 seconds, and then quit.
If
I comment out the overlay handling, it displays a green
background.
I've verified that I'm running SDL 2.540.
Thanks,

Short on time at the moment, but I have the complete code on a
github repo:

The relevant code is in UAV::Pilot::SDL::Video, and the decoding
happens in the xs file for UAV::Pilot::Video::H264Decoder. The
test
t/160_video_decode.t should run the decoding end of things.
There's
a test video in t_data/ardrone_video_stream_dump.bin, though
that
contains the PaVE headers from the UAV before each frame. Those
headers can be stripped out by bin/uav_video_dump.
I'll try to come up with a more concise example later this
evening.
Thanks,

What I would try first is SDL's latest release, which is 2.540
or
so.

I'm working on a project involving decoding h.264 video frames
with
ffmpeg and then outputting them to an SDL surface. From what
I've
read, the YUV overlay is meant for this kind of job, but I'm
having
trouble getting it to work with the Perl bindings.
One thing that seems odd to me in the Perl docs is:
As of release 2.3 direct right to overlay is disable.
Besides the typos, this troubles me because it seems that
disabling
the feature makes the YUV overlay completely useless.
Not to be deterred, I wrote this code:
SDL::Video::lock_YUV_overlay( $overlay );
# The order of array indexen is correct, according to:
# http://dranger.com/ffmpeg/tutorial02.html [1]
my $pitches = $overlay->pitches;
$$pitches[0] = scalar @{ $last_vid_frame[0] };
$$pitches[2] = scalar @{ $last_vid_frame[1] };
$$pitches[1] = scalar @{ $last_vid_frame[2] };
my $pixels = $overlay->pixels;
$$pixels[0] = $last_vid_frame[0];
$$pixels[2] = $last_vid_frame[1];
$$pixels[1] = $last_vid_frame[2];
SDL::Video::unlock_YUV_overlay( $overlay );
SDL::Video::update_rects( $sdl, $bg_rect );
SDL::Video::display_YUV_overlay( $sdl, $bg_rect );
When I run this, I get an error about not being able to find
the
pitches() method against the class "SDL::Overlay". Eh? (Same
thing
happens for the pixels() method if I put that call first.) I
can
call
width() and format() and such just fine on that object.
If needed, I can handle the overlay entirely at the C level.
I may
end up doing that anyway; the C array that comes out of ffmpeg
is
being transformed into a Perl array-of-arrays, which is going
to
be an
expensive operation to do for 720p at 30 fps in realtime. But
I'd
like
to try this at the Perl level for now.
I might also have to convert the output from ffmpeg using
sws_scale(). It's coming out in YUV420P mode, and I'm using
YV12 to
init the overlay. But I'd like to get the above working before
messing
with that.
Thanks,
Timm Murray
