Under the trend of integration of the foreign internet cloud edge, hardware resources and cost required by client equipment are smaller and smaller, and due to the complexity of the android system, the android system cannot run on the client equipment with very limited hardware resources, so that the android system and the application thereof are run in a container mode in a cloud server, and a result is pushed to the client equipment through a WebRTC protocol to form a good choice, so that the android system and the application thereof have a good effect in video application.
At present, android video applications run in an android cloud container in a cloud server, after image data and audio data for a video are obtained, a video encoder and an audio encoder need to be used for encoding the image data and the audio data respectively, so that the video can be played on a client device through audio and video decoding, however, when the existing video encoder encodes the image data, even if a current frame image is not updated relative to a previous frame image, the existing video encoder still needs to perform motion prediction to search out a reference frame image capable of encoding the current frame image, and the motion prediction step consumes a large amount of calculation, so that the encoding cost is increased; in addition, the reference frame image searched by the method has the problem of low coding efficiency. Accordingly, the present embodiment provides a new encoding method for video.
As shown in fig. 1a and fig. 1b, taking as an example a scenario in which an Android application (Android Applications) running in a Cloud Host operating system (Host OS in Cloud) in an Android Cloud Container (Android Container) on a server 1000 is an Android video-type application, according to the Video encoding method in this embodiment, after a user performs a click operation on an icon of a Video application X in a terminal device 2000 (Client in fig. 1 b), the terminal device 2000 responds to the click operation and sends a Video playing request to an Android Video application X in an Android Container in a server 1000, and a surfefinger and an AudioFlinger in an Android frame are respectively responsible for synthesizing Video Source Data (Video Source Data) and Audio Source Data (Audio Source Data), the Video Source Data is transmitted to a Video Encoder (Video Encoder) by the surfefinger, and, transmitting the Audio Source Data to an Audio Encoder (Audio Encoder) by the Audio flinger.
After the Video Encoder and the Audio Encoder respectively encode the Video Source Data and the Audio Source Data, the Video Encoder transmits the encoded Video Source Data to the terminal device 2000 through a Video Channel (Video Channel) based on a WebRTC protocol, and the Audio Encoder transmits the encoded Audio Source Data to the terminal device 2000 through an Audio Channel (Audio Channel) based on the WebRTC protocol, and the terminal device 2000 respectively decodes the Video Source Data and the Audio Source Data to play the Video xxxxx. Compared with the prior art, when the video encoder of the present specification encodes any frame image in each frame image, if the frame image is not updated relative to the previous frame image, the previous frame image is directly used as the reference frame image to encode the frame image, so that according to the video encoding method of the embodiment, the step of performing motion prediction on the current frame image to search out the reference frame image for encoding the current frame image in the existing video encoding can be directly omitted under the condition that the current frame image is not updated relative to the previous frame image, the encoding efficiency is improved, and the encoding cost is reduced.

< method embodiment I >
Fig. 3 is a flow diagram of a video encoding method according to an embodiment, which may be implemented by a server, such as the server 1000 shown in fig. 1a or fig. 2. As shown in fig. 3, the video encoding method of the present embodiment may include the following steps S3100 to S3300:
in step S3100, update information of a current frame image of the video with respect to a previous frame image is obtained.
The video may be a video played through any video-like application in the server 1000. For example, the video class application is X, and the video may be a video played through the video class application X.
In one example, the server 1000 may obtain update information of a current frame image of the video relative to a previous frame image, where the update information of the current frame image of the video relative to the previous frame image at least indicates whether the current frame image is updated relative to the previous frame image, and where the current frame image is updated relative to the previous frame image, a location of an image area where the update occurs is located.
In this example, the server 1000 may further obtain pixel information of a current frame image of the video, so as to obtain the current frame image at least according to the pixel information.
In this embodiment, the server 1000 may obtain pixel information of a current frame image and update information of the current frame image relative to a previous frame image, so as to obtain the current frame image according to the pixel information, and according to the judgment on the update information, to select a suitable reference frame image to encode the current frame image, thereby obtaining an encoded code stream after encoding. For example, when the update information indicates that no update has occurred, the previous frame image may be directly set as a reference frame image for encoding the current frame image, and the current frame image may be encoded using the reference frame image. For example, when the update information indicates that an update has occurred, the update information may be further determined to determine whether or not a partial update has occurred, and an appropriate reference frame image may be selected to encode the current frame image.
In step S3200, if the update information indicates that no update has occurred, the previous frame image is set as a reference frame image for encoding the current frame image.
In one example, when the update information indicates that no update has occurred, the previous frame image may be directly set as a reference frame image for encoding the current frame image, so that the current frame image may be encoded using the reference frame image.
In the present example, when the update information indicates that no update has occurred, the previous frame image is set as the reference frame image for encoding the current frame image, and the step of performing motion prediction on the current frame image to search out the reference frame image capable of encoding the current frame image in the prior art is omitted.
In this example, since the current frame image is not updated relative to the previous frame image, the previous frame image may be directly used as a reference frame image for encoding the current frame image, and the current frame image is encoded by using the reference frame image, which inevitably improves the encoding efficiency.
In one example, when the update information indicates that no update has occurred, the prediction residuals of each macroblock included in the current frame image may be set to be 0. It can be understood that the macro block is a unit for video coding, any frame image is composed of a plurality of macro blocks, and meanwhile, the video coding is also a unit of macro blocks, and the macro blocks are coded one by one and organized into a continuous coding code stream.
In this example, the prediction residual of each macroblock included in the current frame image is 0, which is understood to mean that each macroblock included in the current frame image is identical to a macroblock for encoding a corresponding macroblock.
In step S3200, when the update information indicates that no update has occurred, the server 1000 may directly set the previous frame image as a reference frame image for encoding each macroblock included in the current frame image, set prediction residuals of each macroblock included in the current frame image to be 0, and then encode the macroblocks by macroblocks using the reference frame image and organize the reference frame image into a continuous encoded code stream.
And S3300, encoding the current frame image by using the reference frame image to obtain an encoded code stream.
In step S3300, the server 1000 may perform entropy coding on the reference frame image macroblock by macroblock, and organize the reference frame image into a continuous coding stream. For example, each macroblock may be encoded sequentially in order from left to right and top to bottom. For example, all macroblocks may be encoded at the same time, and the present embodiment does not limit how to specifically encode the macroblocks.
In this embodiment, after the current frame image is encoded by using the reference frame image according to the step S3300, the encoded current frame image is subjected to inverse encoding and filtering processing to obtain the current frame image, so that the current frame image can be used as the reference frame image when the next frame image is encoded. For example, after entropy coding each macroblock included in the current frame image, each macroblock obtained after entropy coding may be subjected to inverse coding and filtering, so as to obtain the current frame image.
As is apparent from the above steps S3100 to S3300, by acquiring update information of a current frame image of a video with respect to a previous frame image and taking the previous frame image as a reference frame image for encoding the current frame image when the update information indicates that the current frame image is not updated with respect to the previous frame image, a step of performing motion prediction on the current frame image to search for a reference frame image that can encode the current frame image in the conventional video encoding is directly omitted when the current frame image is not updated with respect to the previous frame image, thereby improving encoding efficiency and reducing encoding cost.
In an embodiment, after performing step S3100, the video encoding method of this embodiment may further include:
in the case where the update information indicates that an update has occurred, an image area in which the update has occurred is marked in the current frame image.
The above image area marked in the current frame image for updating may be: the updated image area is generated according to a preset shape mark, and the preset shape may be, for example, a regular rectangular shape, a circular shape, or the like, or an irregular shape, which is not limited herein.
In the embodiment, under the condition that the update information indicates that the update occurs, the updated image area is further marked in the current frame image, so that the identifiability of the updated image area is improved, and a programmer can intuitively know the relative position of the updated image area on the current frame image according to the mark.
In an embodiment, another video encoding method is provided, and according to fig. 4, after step S3100 is performed, the video encoding method of this embodiment may further include steps S3400 to S3600 as follows:
in step S3400, when the update information indicates that the update has occurred, it is determined whether the update information indicates that the partial update has occurred.
In this embodiment, a completely different video encoding method is provided from the above step S3200 and step S3300, in which the server 1000 directly encodes the previous frame image as the reference frame image for encoding the current frame image when the update information indicates that the update has not occurred, that is, when the server 1000 indicates that the update has occurred, it continues to determine whether the update information indicates that a partial update has occurred, and performs different encoding according to the determination result.
In step S3500, when the update information indicates that the partial update has occurred, the macroblock alignment operation is performed on the image area where the partial update has occurred.
In step S3500, for example, when the update information indicates that the partial update has occurred, the macroblock up alignment operation may be performed on the image area where the partial update has occurred so that the image area where the partial update has occurred can be encoded in units of an integer number of macroblocks.
And step S3600, continuously judging whether the macro block subjected to the alignment operation is positioned in the image area subjected to the partial update, and respectively adopting different coding modes to code the macro block positioned in the image area subjected to the partial update and the macro block positioned outside the image area subjected to the partial update to obtain a coded code stream.
In this embodiment, in step S3600, encoding the macroblock located outside the image area where the partial update occurs, and obtaining the encoded code stream may further include the following steps S3611 to S3612:
in step S3611, the previous frame image is set as a reference frame image for encoding the macro block located outside the image area where the partial update has occurred.
In one example, the server 1000 determines that the macroblock after the alignment operation is located outside the image area where the partial update occurs, and here, the previous frame image may be directly set as a reference frame image for encoding the macroblock located outside the image area where the partial update occurs, so as to encode the macroblock located outside the image area where the partial update occurs by using the previous frame image.
In one example, the server 1000 determines that the macroblock subjected to the alignment operation is located outside the image area where the partial update occurs, and here, the prediction residuals of each macroblock located outside the image area where the partial update occurs may be set to be 0.
Step S3612, the macroblock located outside the image area where the partial update occurs is encoded using the reference frame image, and an encoded code stream corresponding to each macroblock located outside the image area where the partial update occurs is obtained.
In step S3612, the server 1000 may entropy-encode the macro blocks located outside the image area where the partial update occurs one by using the reference frame image, and organize the macro blocks into a continuous encoded code stream. For example, macroblocks located outside the partially changed image area may be encoded sequentially in the order from left to right and from top to bottom. For example, all macroblocks located outside the partially changed image area may be encoded at the same time, and the present embodiment is not limited to how to specifically encode the macroblocks.
In this embodiment, the macroblocks outside the image region where the partial update occurs may be encoded according to the above steps S3611 to S3612, and after the encoded code stream is obtained, the encoded macroblocks may be subjected to inverse encoding and filtering processing to obtain the macroblocks outside the image region where the partial update occurs.
In this embodiment, in step S3600, encoding the macroblock located in the image region where the partial update occurs, and obtaining the encoded code stream may further include the following steps S3621 to S3622:
step S3621, motion prediction is performed on the macro blocks located in the image area where partial update occurs, and a prediction residual and a motion vector corresponding to each macro block are obtained.
Step S3622, according to each prediction residual and the motion vector, a code stream corresponding to each macroblock in the image region where the partial update occurs is obtained.
In the above step S3621 and this step S3622, the server 1000 determines that the macroblock subjected to the alignment operation is located in the image area where the partial update has occurred, and here, the macroblock located in the image area where the partial update has occurred may be encoded by using an existing video encoding flow. For example, it may be that a macroblock located in an image area where partial update occurs is subjected to motion estimation to search for other frame images capable of encoding the corresponding macroblock (inter prediction), and other macroblocks in the current frame where the corresponding macroblock is encoded (intra prediction), where the other frame images capable of encoding the corresponding macroblock or other macroblocks in the current frame where the corresponding macroblock is encoded may be represented by motion vectors; then, on one hand, motion compensation is carried out on the motion vector to obtain an inter-frame residual error and/or an intra-frame residual error, prediction mode decision is carried out on the inter-frame residual error and/or the intra-frame residual error to obtain a prediction residual error, and transformation and quantization are carried out on the prediction residual error; on the other hand, entropy coding is carried out on the motion vector and the prediction residual after transformation and quantization and the motion vector and the prediction residual are organized into a continuous coding code stream.
In this embodiment, the macro blocks located in the image region where the partial update occurs may be encoded according to the above steps S3621 to S3622, and after the encoded code stream is obtained, the encoded macro blocks may be subjected to inverse encoding, inverse quantization, inverse transformation, and filtering processing to obtain the macro blocks located in the image region where the partial update occurs.
As can be seen from steps S3400 to S3600, by obtaining update information of a current frame image of a video with respect to a previous frame image, and when the update information indicates that the current frame image is updated with respect to the previous frame image, continuously determining whether the update information indicates that a partial update occurs, and when the partial update occurs, directly omitting a step of performing motion prediction in the existing video coding to search for a reference frame image capable of encoding a macroblock located outside an image area where the partial update occurs, the coding efficiency is improved, and the coding cost is reduced.
In an embodiment, another video encoding method is provided, and according to fig. 4, after performing step S3400, the video encoding method of this embodiment may further include the following step S3700:
step 3700, in case that the update area indicates that partial update has not occurred, encoding all macro blocks included in the current frame image to obtain an encoded code stream.
In this embodiment, the step S3700 of encoding all the macro blocks included in the current frame image to obtain an encoded code stream may further include the following steps S3710 to S3720:
step S3710 is performed to perform motion prediction on all macro blocks included in the current frame image, and obtain a prediction residual and a motion vector corresponding to each macro block.
Step S3720, obtain the encoded code stream according to each prediction residual and motion vector.
In the above step S3710 and this step S3720, when the server 1000 determines that the update information indicates that the partial update has not occurred, the current frame image may be encoded by using an existing video encoding flow. For example, motion estimation may be performed on all macroblocks included in the current frame image to search for other frame images capable of encoding the corresponding macroblock (inter prediction), and other macroblocks in the current frame image capable of encoding the corresponding macroblock (intra prediction), where the other frame images capable of encoding the corresponding macroblock or the other macroblocks in the current frame image capable of encoding the corresponding macroblock may be represented by motion vectors; then, on one hand, motion compensation is carried out on the motion vector to obtain an inter-frame residual error and/or an intra-frame residual error, prediction mode decision is carried out on the inter-frame residual error and/or the intra-frame residual error to obtain a prediction residual error, and transformation and quantization are carried out on the prediction residual error; on the other hand, entropy coding is carried out on the motion vector and the prediction residual after transformation and quantization and the motion vector and the prediction residual are organized into a continuous coding code stream.
In this embodiment, after all the macroblocks included in the current frame image are encoded according to the step S3700, the current frame image after encoding is subjected to inverse encoding and filtering processing to obtain the current frame image, so that the current frame image can be used as a reference frame image when encoding the next frame image. .
As can be seen from step S3700 above, the encoding cost is reduced by obtaining the update information of the current frame image of the video with respect to the previous frame image, continuously determining whether the update information indicates that the current frame image is updated with respect to the previous frame image, and encoding the current frame image by using the existing video encoding process when the update information indicates that the current frame image is updated with respect to the previous frame image, and when the update information does not indicate that the current frame image is partially updated.
In one embodiment, the frame image may be rendered prior to encoding to increase encoding speed. In this embodiment, the video encoding method may further include:
in the case where the rendering function is turned on, an arbitrary frame image of the video is rendered before being encoded.
In this embodiment, the terminal device 2000 used by the operation and maintenance personnel on the platform maintenance side may set a rendering switch whether to render a frame image in the video when the video is encoded.
In this embodiment, the current frame image and the previous frame image are both rendered images.
For example, when the switch is in the on state, the rendering function is turned on, and it is necessary to render any frame image first and encode any rendered frame image, so as to accelerate the encoding speed, and how to encode any rendered frame image may refer to any of the above embodiments, which is not described herein again.
For another example, when the switch is in the off state, the rendering function is turned off, and then any frame image is directly encoded, and how to encode any frame image may refer to any of the above embodiments, which is not described herein again.
In one embodiment, a mapping relation between the coding mode and the device type is preset, so that the coded code stream is sent to the terminal device of the corresponding device type for decoding and playing, and customized service is realized. In this embodiment, the video encoding method may further include steps S3800 to S3900:
step S3800 acquires the device type of the terminal device 2000 that selects the coding scheme corresponding to the code.
The device types are used to distinguish different types of terminal devices 2000. The device type may be represented by a device attribute parameter, which may be, for example, a model number of the device, a serial number of the device, a Globally Unique Identifier (GUID) of the device, and the like.
In this embodiment, the encoding method is applicable to all hardware configurations, but the device type of the terminal device using the encoding method may be configured in the server 1000.
Step S3900, sending the encoded code stream to the terminal device 2000 belonging to the device type for decoding and playing.
< method example two >
Fig. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a video decoding method according to an embodiment, which may be implemented by a terminal device, such as terminal device 2000 shown in fig. 1a or fig. 2. As shown in fig. 5, the video decoding method of the present embodiment may include the following steps S5100 to S5300:
step S5100 obtains a code stream obtained by coding each frame image of the video.
The encoding of any of the frame images includes: and when the any frame image is not updated relative to the previous frame image, the previous frame image is used as a reference frame image to encode the any frame image.
In step S5200, the encoded code stream is decoded.
Step S5300 plays the decoded video.
As is apparent from the above steps S5100 to S5300, when any frame image is not updated with respect to the previous frame image, the previous frame image is used as the reference frame image to encode the any frame image, and therefore, when any frame image is not updated with respect to the previous frame image, the step of performing motion prediction on any frame image to search for a reference frame image that can encode the any frame image in the conventional video encoding is directly omitted, so that the encoding efficiency is improved, and the encoding cost is reduced.

Step S6210, in response to the video playing request, an Android application (Android Applications) in an Android Container (Android Container) in the cloud server acquires each frame of image and audio for the video.
The android application can be a video application for video playing.
In step S6210, for example, the video application X performing video playing may respond to the video playing request and acquire each frame of image and audio of the video.
Step S6220, the cloud server transmits the Audio and each frame image to an Audio Encoder (Video Encoder) and a Video Encoder (Audio Encoder) in the cloud server through inter-process Communication (IPC) by the Audio Encoder and the surface Encoder in the Android frame (Android Framework), respectively, to perform encoding, so as to obtain an Audio encoding code stream and an image encoding code stream.
Referring to fig. 7, the specific process of encoding for any frame image in the frame images in step S6220 may include S6221 to S6229:
step 6221, update information of the current frame image of the video relative to the previous frame image is obtained.
In step S6221, the output information may be added to the surface flinger output layer, so that the surface flinger output layer can output not only the pixel information of the current frame image but also the update information of the current frame image relative to the previous frame image.
Step 6222, it is determined whether the update information indicates that an update has occurred, and if so, step 6224 is executed, otherwise, step 6223 is executed.
In step S6223, in a case where the update information indicates that no update has occurred, all the macroblock prediction residuals included in the current frame are set to 0, and the previous frame image is set as a reference frame image for encoding all the macroblocks included in the current frame image, after which step S7229 is performed.
In step S6223, when the update information indicates that no update has occurred, the current frame image is predicted by inter-frame prediction.
Step S6224 is executed to determine whether or not the update information indicates that the partial update has occurred when the update information indicates that the update has occurred, and if so, step S6225 is executed, otherwise, step S6227 is executed.
In step S6225, when the update information indicates that the partial update has occurred, the macroblock alignment operation is performed on the image area where the partial update has occurred.
In step S6226, it is determined whether the macroblock after the macroblock alignment operation is updated, and if so, step S6227 is performed, otherwise, step S6228 is performed.
Step 6227, the corresponding macro block in the current frame image is processed by the existing motion prediction step to obtain the motion vector and the prediction residual, the prediction residual is transformed and quantized and then entropy-encoded by combining the motion vector to obtain the encoded code stream, and the process is finished.
In step S6228, the corresponding macroblock prediction residual is set to 0, and the previous frame image is set as the reference frame image for encoding the corresponding macroblock.
Step 6229, entropy encoding is performed on the macro block in the current frame image by using the reference frame image to obtain an encoded code stream, and the process is ended.
Step S6230, the cloud server sends the Audio code stream and the image code stream to the terminal device through an Audio Channel (Video Channel) and a Video Channel (Audio Channel) based on the WebRTC protocol.
Step S6120, the terminal device decodes the audio code stream and the video code stream, and plays the decoded video.
According to the example, the output information is added to the android frame surface flag output layer in the cloud server, so that the surface flag output layer can not only output the pixel information of the current frame image, but also output the update information of the current frame image relative to the previous frame image, and when the update information indicates that the current frame image is not updated relative to the previous frame image, the previous frame image can be directly used as the reference frame image for coding the current frame image, and therefore, when the current frame image is not updated relative to the previous frame image, the step of performing motion prediction on the current frame image to search out the reference frame image capable of coding the current frame image in the existing video coding is directly omitted, the coding efficiency is improved, and the coding cost is reduced.
