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 demonstrator presents a run-time visualization tool for Kvazaar HEVC intra encoder. The implemented open-source tool is seamlessly integrated into Kvazaar to provide instant visual feedback of the encoding process. The visualization overlays the reconstructed HEVC video with the boundaries of the used block partitioning structure and associated intra prediction modes. The tool is also able to...
This demonstrator serves as a proof-of-concept of our multi-camera remote surveillance system that supports 1080p still image capture with a 10-second refresh rate. Image capture, compression, and broadcast are implemented in each Raspberry Pi 2 camera node. Image compression is conducted with an open-source Kvazaar HEVC encoder that outputs HEVC images in BPG format. The BPG images are broadcast...
This paper introduces key parallelization strategies of our Kvazaar HEVC intra encoder for multicore processors. The schemes implemented in Kvazaar are 1) tiles; 2) Wavefront Parallel Processing (WPP); and 3) picture-level parallel processing. Kvazaar is the only practical open-source HEVC encoder that supports all these schemes. In addition, its rate-distortion-complexity characteristics are superior...
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...
