In addition to the fact that av_image_copy() cannot handle hardware pixel formats, h->short_ref[0]->f may not even be writable at this point.
Based on a patch by Hendrik Leppkes. Signed-off-by: James Almer <jamr...@gmail.com> --- This is an alternative to "avcodec/h264_slice: properly handle missing reference frames with hwaccel", given that I noticed that the target frame is not writable for example when running fate-h264-missing-frame. To keep the current behavior of copying the frame data instead of making a reference, I also tried to do ff_thread_release_buffer() -> ff_thread_get_buffer() -> av_frame_copy(), which worked with software decoding, but when using the d3d11va hwaccel the av_frame_copy() call would fail. There is a warning above this code that makes it sound like making references is not ideal, but considering h->short_ref[0] is not writable here it feels like it could be an outdated comment that someone forgot to remove. libavcodec/h264_slice.c | 12 +++++------- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/libavcodec/h264_slice.c b/libavcodec/h264_slice.c index fa7a639053..a2f4ffa6d6 100644 --- a/libavcodec/h264_slice.c +++ b/libavcodec/h264_slice.c @@ -1599,13 +1599,11 @@ static int h264_field_start(H264Context *h, const H264SliceContext *sl, ff_thread_await_progress(&prev->tf, INT_MAX, 0); if (prev->field_picture) ff_thread_await_progress(&prev->tf, INT_MAX, 1); - av_image_copy(h->short_ref[0]->f->data, - h->short_ref[0]->f->linesize, - (const uint8_t **)prev->f->data, - prev->f->linesize, - prev->f->format, - prev->f->width, - prev->f->height); + ff_thread_release_buffer(h->avctx, &h->short_ref[0]->tf); + h->short_ref[0]->tf.f = h->short_ref[0]->f; + ret = ff_thread_ref_frame(&h->short_ref[0]->tf, &prev->tf); + if (ret < 0) + return ret; h->short_ref[0]->poc = prev->poc + 2U; } else if (!h->frame_recovered && !h->avctx->hwaccel) ff_color_frame(h->short_ref[0]->f, c); -- 2.30.1 _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
