硬件加速的视频解码和编码

作者: Moto Hira

本教程介绍如何在 TorchAudio 中使用 NVIDIA 的硬件视频解码器(NVDEC)和编码器(NVENC)。

使用硬件编解码器可以提高加载和保存某些类型视频的速度。在 TorchAudio 中使用它们需要额外的 FFmpeg 配置。本教程将介绍如何编译 FFmpeg,并比较处理视频所需的时间。

WARNING

This tutorial instsalls FFmpeg in system directory. If you run this tutorial on your system, please adjust the build configuration accordingly.

NOTE

This tutorial was authored in Google Colab, and is tailored to Google Colab’s specifications. Please check out this tutorial in Google Colab.

要在 TorchAudio 中使用 NVENC/NVDEC,需要满足以下要求。

  1. 配备 NVIDIA GPU 和硬件视频解码器/编码器。

  2. 使用 NVDEC/NVENC 支持编译的 FFmpeg 库。†

  3. PyTorch / TorchAudio 支持 CUDA。

TorchAudio 的官方二进制发行版是使用 FFmpeg 4 库编译的,并包含基于硬件的解码/编码所需的逻辑。

在以下部分中,我们将构建支持 NVDEC/NVENC 的 FFmpeg 4 库,然后演示使用 TorchAudio 的 StreamReader/StreamWriter 所带来的性能提升。

† 有关 NVDEC/NVENC 和 FFmpeg 的详细信息,请参阅以下文章。

使用每日构建版本更新 PyTorch 和 TorchAudio

在 TorchAudio 0.13 发布之前,我们需要使用 PyTorch 和 TorchAudio 的每日构建版本。

构建支持 Nvidia NVDEC/NVENC 的 FFmpeg 库

安装 NVIDIA 视频编解码器头文件

要使用 NVDEC/NVENC 构建 FFmpeg,我们首先需要安装 FFmpeg 用于与 Video Codec SDK 交互的头文件。

[3]:
!git clone https://git.videolan.org/git/ffmpeg/nv-codec-headers.git
# Note: Google Colab's GPU has NVENC API ver 11.0, so we checkout 11.0 tag.
!cd nv-codec-headers && git checkout n11.0.10.1 && sudo make install
Cloning into 'nv-codec-headers'...
remote: Enumerating objects: 819, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (819/819), done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (697/697), done.

Resolving deltas: 100% (439/439), done.
Note: checking out 'n11.0.10.1'.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:

  git checkout -b <new-branch-name>

HEAD is now at 315ad74 add cuMemcpy
sed 's#@@PREFIX@@#/usr/local#' ffnvcodec.pc.in > ffnvcodec.pc
install -m 0755 -d '/usr/local/include/ffnvcodec'
install -m 0644 include/ffnvcodec/*.h '/usr/local/include/ffnvcodec'
install -m 0755 -d '/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig'
install -m 0644 ffnvcodec.pc '/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig'

下载 FFmpeg 源代码

接下来,我们下载 FFmpeg 4 的源代码。任何高于 4.1 的版本均可使用。此处我们使用 4.4.2 版本。

[4]:
!wget -q https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/archive/refs/tags/n4.4.2.tar.gz
!tar -xf n4.4.2.tar.gz
!mv FFmpeg-n4.4.2 ffmpeg

安装 FFmpeg 构建和运行时依赖项

在后续测试中,我们使用 H264 视频编解码器和 HTTPS 协议,因此在此处安装相应的库。

配置 FFmpeg 构建以支持 Nvidia CUDA 硬件

接下来我们配置 FFmpeg 的构建。请注意以下内容:

  1. 我们提供类似 -I/usr/local/cuda/include, -L/usr/local/cuda/lib64 的标志,让构建过程知道在哪里找到 CUDA 库。

  2. 我们提供如 --enable-nvdec--enable-nvenc 等标志以启用 NVDEC/NVENC。有关详细信息,请参阅转码指南†。

  3. 我们还提供了计算能力为 37 的 NVCC 标志。这是因为配置脚本默认会通过编译针对计算能力 30 的示例代码来验证 NVCC,而该版本对于 CUDA 11 来说过于陈旧。

  4. 为缩短编译时间,许多功能已被禁用。

  5. 我们在 /usr/lib/ 中安装该库,这是动态加载器的活动搜索路径之一。 这样做允许在不重启当前会话的情况下找到生成的库。这可能是一个不理想的位置,例如当用户未使用一次性虚拟机时。

# NOTE:
# When the configure script of FFmpeg 4 checks nvcc, it uses compute
# capability of 30 (3.0) by default. CUDA 11, however, does not support
# compute capability 30.
# Here, we use 37, which is supported by CUDA 11 and both K80 and T4.

# NVIDIA T4: 75

基准测试 GPU 编码和解码

现在FFmpeg和生成的库已经准备好使用,我们测试NVDEC/NVENC与TorchAudio。有关TorchAudio流式API的基本知识,请参阅媒体I/O教程

注意

如果您在导入 torchaudio 后重新构建 FFmpeg,则需要重启会话以激活新构建的 FFmpeg 库。

[11]:

使用 StreamReader 对 NVDEC 进行基准测试

首先,我们测试硬件解码功能,从多个位置(本地文件、网络文件、AWS S3)获取视频,并使用 NVDEC 对其进行解码。

首先,我们定义将用于测试的函数。

函数 test_decode 从开始到结束解码给定的源,报告经过的时间,并返回一个图像帧作为示例。

[16]:
result = torch.zeros((4, 2))
samples = [[None, None] for _ in range(4)]


def test_decode(src, config, i_sample):
  print("=" * 40)
  print("* Configuration:", config)
  print("* Source:", src)
  print("=" * 40)

  s = StreamReader(src)
  s.add_video_stream(5, **config)

  t0 = time.monotonic()
  num_frames = 0
  for i, (chunk, ) in enumerate(s.stream()):
    if i == 0:
      print(' - Chunk:', chunk.shape, chunk.device, chunk.dtype)
    if i == i_sample:
      sample = chunk[0]
    num_frames += chunk.shape[0]
  elapsed = time.monotonic() - t0

  print()
  print(f" - Processed {num_frames} frames.")
  print(f" - Elapsed: {elapsed} seconds.")
  print()

  return elapsed, sample

从本地文件解码 MP4

在首次测试中,我们比较了 CPU 与 NVDEC 解码 250MB MP4 视频所需的时间。

[17]:
local_src = "input.mp4"

i_sample = 520

CPU

[18]:
cpu_conf = {
    "decoder": "h264",  # CPU decoding

[21]:

从网络解码 MP4

让我们在通过网络即时获取的源代码上运行相同的测试。

[22]:
network_src = "https://download.pytorch.org/torchaudio/tutorial-assets/stream-api/NASAs_Most_Scientifically_Complex_Space_Observatory_Requires_Precision-MP4_small.mp4"

[26]:
result[1, 1] = elapsed
samples[1][1] = sample

直接从 S3 解码 MP4

通过使用类文件对象输入,我们可以获取存储在 AWS S3 上的视频并进行解码,而无需将其保存到本地文件系统。

[27]:
bucket = "pytorch"
key = "torchaudio/tutorial-assets/stream-api/NASAs_Most_Scientifically_Complex_Space_Observatory_Requires_Precision-MP4_small.mp4"

s3_client = boto3.client("s3", config=Config(signature_version=UNSIGNED))
i_sample = 115

定义辅助类

StreamReader 支持具有 read 方法的类文件对象。除此之外,如果该类似文件的对象还实现了 seek 方法,StreamReader 将尝试使用它来更可靠地检测媒体格式。

然而,boto3的S3客户端响应对象的seek方法仅抛出错误以告知用户不支持seek操作。因此,我们用一个不包含seek方法的类对其进行封装。这样,StreamReader就不会尝试使用seek方法。

注意

由于流式传输的特性,当使用没有 seek 方法的类文件对象时,某些格式不受支持。例如,MP4 格式的元数据位于文件的开头或结尾。如果元数据位于结尾,则在没有 seek 方法的情况下,StreamReader 无法解码流。

[28]:
# Wrapper to hide the native `seek` method of boto3, which
# only raises an error.
class UnseekableWrapper:
  def __init__(self, obj):
    self.obj = obj

  def read(self, n):
    return self.obj.read(n)

  def __str__(self):
    return str(self.obj)

CPU

解码和缩放

在下一个测试中,我们添加了预处理。NVDEC 支持多种预处理方案,这些方案也在所选硬件上执行。对于 CPU,我们通过 FFmpeg 的过滤器图应用相同类型的软件预处理。

[33]:
i_sample = 1085

CPU

[34]:
cpu_conf = {
    "decoder": "h264",  # CPU decoding
    "filter_desc": "scale=360:240",  # Software filter

结果

下表总结了使用 CPU 和 NVDEC 解码相同媒体所花费的时间。我们可以看到,使用 NVDEC 能带来显著的速度提升。

[38]:
res = pd.DataFrame(
    result.numpy(),
    index=["Decoding (local file)", "Decoding (network file)", "Decoding (file-like object, S3)", "Decoding + Resize"],
    columns=["CPU", "NVDEC"],
)
print(res)
                                       CPU     NVDEC

Decoding + Resize                19.082726  4.157032

以下代码展示了由 CPU 解码和 NVDEC 生成的一些帧。它们产生的结果看似完全相同。

[39]:
def yuv_to_rgb(img):
  img = img.cpu().to(torch.float)
  y = img[..., 0, :, :]
  u = img[..., 1, :, :]
  v = img[..., 2, :, :]

  y /= 255
  u = u / 255 - 0.5
  v = v / 255 - 0.5

  r = y + 1.14 * v
  g = y + -0.396 * u - 0.581 * v
  b = y + 2.029 * u

  rgb = torch.stack([r, g, b], -1)
  rgb = (rgb * 255).clamp(0, 255).to(torch.uint8)
  return rgb.numpy()

使用 StreamWriter 对 NVENC 进行基准测试

接下来,我们使用 StreamWriter 和 NVENC 对编码速度进行基准测试。

[41]:
def test_encode(data, dst, **config):
  print("=" * 40)
  print("* Configuration:", config)
  print("* Destination:", dst)
  print("=" * 40)

  s = StreamWriter(dst)
  s.add_video_stream(**config)

  t0 = time.monotonic()
  with s.open():
    s.write_video_chunk(0, data)
  elapsed = time.monotonic() - t0

  print()
  print(f" - Processed {len(data)} frames.")
  print(f" - Elapsed: {elapsed} seconds.")
  print()
  return elapsed

result = torch.zeros((3, 3))

我们使用 StreamReader 来生成测试数据。

[42]:
def get_data(frame_rate, height, width, format, duration=15):
  src = f"testsrc2=rate={frame_rate}:size={width}x{height}:duration={duration}"
  s = StreamReader(src=src, format="lavfi")
  s.add_basic_video_stream(-1, format=format)
  s.process_all_packets()
  video, = s.pop_chunks()
  return video
