Description

Enables an encoding channel to start receiving source images. The encoding channel automatically stops receiving images when the specified receive limit is reached.

Prototype

hi_s32 hi_mpi_venc_start_chn(hi_venc_chn chn, const hi_venc_start_param *recv_param)

Parameters

Parameter

Input/Output

Description

chn

Input

Encoding channel ID.

Atlas A3 training products / Atlas A3 inference products : The value range of the encoding channel ID is [0, 256). The maximum number of JPEGE channels is 256.

Atlas A2 training products / Atlas A2 inference products : The value range of the encoding channel ID is [0, 256). The maximum number of JPEGE channels is 256.

Atlas 200I/500 A2 inference products : The value range of the encoding channel ID is [0, 128). The JPEGE and VENC functions share the same channels, and the maximum number of channels is 128.

Atlas inference products : The value range of the encoding channel ID is [0, 256). The JPEGE and VENC functions share the same channels, and the maximum number of channels is 256.

recv_param

Input

Pointer to the received image parameters, for specifying the number of frames to be received.

Returns

Restrictions

  • Ensure that a channel has been created. Otherwise, the error code HI_ERR_VENC_UNEXIST is returned.
  • The value -1 indicates that an unspecified number of frames will be received.
  • For a channel already in the image receiving progress, if this API is called again to specify its frame receive limit, an error code is returned indicating that this request is illegal.
  • If a channel has started to receive images, you can call this API again without specifying the number of frames to be received before the channel stops receiving images.
  • The encoder starts images receiving and encoding only after this API call.
