Pre-Condition

"This method may only be called before the hwdevice has been initialized using Initialize()."

Description

SetNumBitrateLayersL(TUint)

virtual void SetNumBitrateLayersL(TUint aNumLayers)=0;

Pre-Condition

"This method may only be called before the hwdevice has been initialized using Initialize()."

Description

Sets the number of bit-rate scalability layers to use. Set to 1 to disable layered scalability.

Bit-rate scalability refers to the ability of a coded stream to be decoded at different bit-rates. Scalable video is typically ordered into hierarchical layers of data. A base layer contains an individual representation of a video stream and enhancement layers contain refinement data in addition to the base layer. The quality of the decoded video stream progressively improves as enhancement layers are added to the base layer.

Parameters

TUint aNumLayers

"The number of bit-rate scalability layers to use, set to 1 to disable scalability."

Leave codes

"The

method will leave if an error occurs. Typical error codes used: KErrNotSupported - The scalability layers are not supported or too many layers specified."


SetScalabilityLayerTypeL(TUint,TScalabilityType)

virtual void SetScalabilityLayerTypeL(TUint aLayer, TScalabilityType aScalabilityType)=0;

Pre-Condition

"This method may only be called before the hwdevice has been initialized using Initialize()."

Description

Sets the scalability type for a bit-rate scalability layer.

Parameters

TUint aLayer

"Layer number. Layers are numbered [0...n-1], where n is the number of layers available. The first layer is the base layer, it can be decoded independently from the other layers, and it has the lowest total bitrate."

TScalabilityType aScalabilityType

"Layer scalability type."

Leave codes

"

The method will leave if an error occurs. Typical error codes used: KErrNotSupported - The scalability layers or the specified scalability type are not supported."


SetGlobalReferenceOptions(TUint,TUint)

virtual void SetGlobalReferenceOptions(TUint aMaxReferencePictures, TUint aMaxPictureOrderDelay)=0;

Pre-Condition

"This method may only be called before the hwdevice has been initialized using Initialize()."

Description

Sets the reference picture options to be used for all scalability layers. The settings can be overridden for an individual scalability layer by using CMMFVideoEncodeHwDevice::SetLayerReferenceOptions(TUint,TUint,TUint).

Parameters

TUint aMaxReferencePictures

"The maximum number of reference pictures to be used. More than one reference frame can be used in the H.264 | MPEG-4 AVC and in some advanced profiles of MPEG-4 Part 2 and H.263. The minimum value is one."

TUint aMaxPictureOrderDelay

"The maximum picture order delay, in number of pictures. This specifies the maximum amount of pictures that precede any picture in the sequence in decoding order and follow the picture in presentation order. Pictures may be coded/decoded in different order from their capture/display order. Thus, decoded pictures have to be buffered to order them in correct display order. For example, if one conventional B picture is coded between P pictures, a one-picture display ordering delay has to be applied in the decoder. The minimum value is zero, which indicates that pictures must be coded in capture/display order."


SetLayerReferenceOptions(TUint,TUint,TUint)

SetOutputRectL(const TRect &)

virtual void SetOutputRectL(const TRect &aRect)=0;
