similar to: FPGA implementation/ players speed?

I'm considering implementing the Theora format in the FPGA of the new camera. The previous model (Elphel 313 - http://www.elphel.com, https://sourceforge.net/projects/elphel) had smaller FPGA and was able to produce just motion JPEG utilizing 97% of the resources. The new (model 333) camera uses 3 times bigger FPGA (and also faster), it also has increased frame buffer and system memory.

Here http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/theora/2004-September/000619.html Andrey describe encoder structure, this like: "I see the following structure of the compressor implemented in the FPGA (Xilinx Spartan 3 1000K gates): 1. Data from the external frame buffer (FB) memory goes to the Bayer-to-YCbCr (4:2:0) converter in overlapping 20x20 tiles that produce 6 8x8 blocks (one macroblock) on the

Hello, I want to make a program to extract frame from a theora movie as images. I tried with the decoding example located at theora web site (dump_video.c. I use it to extract a frame as yuv image but when I try to convert it to ppm with yuvtoppm program i obtain a strange image ( see http://poux.be/tmp/file.ppm ). I think it's a problem with the byte order for yuv, but don't I don't

Hi, just a small follow up of recent discussions about Elphel's JP4 format. I'm working with Andrey and fellows from Elphel to improve support for JP4 format in the context of Elphel's Apertus project (http://www.apert.us). As posted by Basil, on http://wiki.elphel.com/index.php?title=JP4 there is plenty of information about the format and how to post process it to get back your real

There is bit space in Bitstream Header to put Huffman codes in. However, This space can take only 80 kinds of Huffman code set. And This space is divded into DC Huffman code set and AC Huffman set, and There are only 16 choices in each DC and AC Huffman code set. If we want to use this space, we find out best(or proper) performance 80 frequency counts(Huffman code sets) from tens thousands of

Andrey Filippov reports at his sourceforge website that he is 50% of the way towards the implementation of ogg theora in a FPGA, and has a goal of reaching 100% (leaving out motion compensation) by Dec. 14, 2004. These are some of the tasks he has completed most recently: Added 8-point forward DCT following the algorithm suggested in Theora specs. 2004-10-31 22:17 Created 2-d IDCT according

Hi, I'm attempting to decode Theora videos on a PowerPC running a Linux 2.6.19 kernel. The version of GCC I'm cross-compiling from is 3.4.4. The software versions I'm running are: libogg-1.1.3 libpng-1.2.20 libtheora-1.0beta1 libvorbis-1.2.0 These are all the latest I was able to download. Here's a back trace I got while running "dump_video" under

Hello list, When I convert an yuv pixel into rgb using the recipies in http://www.fourcc.org/fccyvrgb.php I get an accurate color conversion but the contrast seems to be decreased. If i write, e.g., the pixel directly into an sdl yuv_overlay, I get a well-contrasted frame, however, if I convert the pixel to rgb and call SDL_MapRGB, I get a contrast-decreased frame. Thanks, Ribamar

Raphael, Some 15 years ago I implemented limited functionality Theora in our cameras FPGA (it took me 6 month of hard labor), and then gave up - it is a very crowded space and it is difficult to compete with more advanced codecs. And for our other work we anyway need almost raw image data, so we are using JPEG-based JP4 format (https://community.elphel.com/jp4) that we originally developed for

Hello, once again I have the great pleasure to announce the release of a new Theora version - please welcome libtheora beta 2! Changes for this version: libtheora 1.0beta2 (2007 October 12) - Fix a crash bug on char-is-unsigned architectures (PowerPC) - Fix a buffer sizing issue that caused rare encoder crashes - Fix a buffer alignment issue - Build fixes for MingW32, MSVC - Improved

Conrad, Small buglet with the 0.9.1 liboggz release (go dude!) http://thaumas.net/~giles/xiph/elphel/clips/elphel_00017.ogg causes a float exception in oggzinfo when it tries to calculate the bitrate. It fails to measure the duration and tries to divide by zero. :) There may well be something wrong with the file, although oggz-validate doesn't complain. Also, the configure script

Hello, in case somebody wants to test Theora without compilation, feel free to use konvalo.org's setup. It includes mplayer with theora from svn 2004-09-21 with Wim Taymans' mmx-patches from August 2004 applied (there are mplayer and mplayer.theora-mmx, the latter with decoder mmx-patches from VP3HoSwiYO) and a theora-encoder script (a bit slower than ffmpeg2theora as it runs several

Hi everyone, I just landed into the theora planet, as a game programmer, I searched for a free video fomat/codec and the theora choice became obvious. However I experienced rather bad performance (at least from a game programming point of view) After a couple a profiling, I discovered, as previous discused in a post found via Google, that the bottleneck is in the ogg library. An unsane part of the

Andrey Fillipov posted the following update at his sourceforge website on 11/16/04. "Coded and simulated the DC predictor module - hope the Theora description I used matches the actual codec :-) Also modified the modules released earlier to support non-coded blocks. For the DCT/IDCT I tried to reduce the power consuption by minimizing switching of the registers and counters when the

Good day! I create diagram of encoder process. Using it i create implementation of encoder in FPGA (Xilinx/Altera). Please critique it. Is there missing stages?
