This paper demonstrates the usage of Kvazaar open-source HEVC intra encoder in 4K real-time video encoding. In this setup, a raw 4K video is shot by an action camera, captured by an HDMI capture card, encoded in real-time by Kvazaar ultrafast preset on a 22-core Intel Xeon processor, sent to a laptop, and decoded by OpenHEVC decoder for playback. The encoding process is visualized on the fly by Kvazaar...
This paper presents efficient SIMD optimizations for the open-source Kvazaar HEVC intra encoder. The C implementation of Kvazaar is accelerated by Intel AVX2 instructions whose effect on Kvazaar ultrafast preset is profiled. According to our profiling results, C functions of SATD, DCT, quantization, and intra prediction account for over 60% of the total intra coding time of Kvazaar ultrafast preset...
This paper analyzes parallel scalability and coding speed of our open-source Kvazaar HEVC intra encoder on Intel Xeon Phi 61-core coprocessor that supports up to four hardware threads per core. The evaluated parallelization schemes of Kvazaar are 1) Wavefront Parallel Processing (WPP); and 2) tiles, both accelerated with picture-level parallel processing. With WPP, the C implementation of Kvazaar...
This paper presents an open-source Kvazaar encoder for HEVC intra coding. This academic software encoder has been developed from the scratch using C as an implementation language by prioritizing modularity, portability, and readability of the source code. Kvazaar implements almost the same intra coding functionality as HEVC reference encoder (HM) but its rewritten source code makes it significantly...
