Detailed Description

The QVideoSurfaceFormat class specifies the stream format of a video presentation surface. A video surface presents a stream of video frames. The surface's format describes the type of the frames and determines how they should be presented. The core properties of a video stream required to setup a video surface are the pixel format given by pixelFormat(), and the frame dimensions given by frameSize(). If the surface is to present frames using a frame's handle a surface format will also include a handle type which is given by the handleType() method.

The region of a frame that is actually displayed on a video surface is given by the viewport(). A stream may have a viewport less than the entire region of a frame to allow for videos smaller than the nearest optimal size of a video frame. For example the width of a frame may be extended so that the start of each scan line is eight byte aligned.

Other common properties are the pixelAspectRatio(), scanLineDirection(), and frameRate(). Additionally a stream may have some additional type specific properties which are listed by the dynamicPropertyNames() method and can be accessed using the property(), and setProperty() methods.

Member Enumeration Documentation

Enumerates the layout direction of video scan lines.

ConstantValueDescription
QVideoSurfaceFormat::TopToBottom0Scan lines are arranged from the top of the frame to the bottom.
QVideoSurfaceFormat::BottomToTop1Scan lines are arranged from the bottom of the frame to the top.

Enumerates the Y'CbCr color space of video frames.

ConstantValueDescription
QVideoSurfaceFormat::YCbCr_Undefined0 No color space is specified.
QVideoSurfaceFormat::YCbCr_BT6011 A Y'CbCr color space defined by ITU-R recommendation BT.601 with Y value range from 16 to 235, and Cb/Cr range from 16 to 240. Used in standard definition video.
QVideoSurfaceFormat::YCbCr_BT7092 A Y'CbCr color space defined by ITU-R BT.709 with the same values range as YCbCr_BT601. Used for HDTV.
QVideoSurfaceFormat::YCbCr_xvYCC6013 The BT.601 color space with the value range extended to 0 to 255. It is backward compatible with BT.601 and uses values outside BT.601 range to represent wider colors range.
QVideoSurfaceFormat::YCbCr_xvYCC7094 The BT.709 color space with the value range extended to 0 to 255.
QVideoSurfaceFormat::YCbCr_JPEG5 The full range Y'CbCr color space used in JPEG files.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QVideoSurfaceFormat::QVideoSurfaceFormat ( )

Constructs a null video stream format.

QVideoSurfaceFormat::QVideoSurfaceFormat ( const QSize size,
QVideoFrame::PixelFormat  pixelFormat,
QAbstractVideoBuffer::HandleType  handleType = QAbstractVideoBuffer::NoHandle 
)

Constructs a new QVideoSurfaceFormat from the given handleType, frame size, and pixelFormat.

QVideoSurfaceFormat::QVideoSurfaceFormat ( const QVideoSurfaceFormat &  other)

Copy constructs a new QVideoSurfaceFormat from other.

QVideoSurfaceFormat::~QVideoSurfaceFormat ( )

Destroys a video stream description.

Method Documentation

int QVideoSurfaceFormat::frameHeight ( ) const

Returns the height of frame in a video stream.

qreal QVideoSurfaceFormat::frameRate ( ) const

Returns the frame rate of a video stream in frames per second.

See also
setFrameRate()
QSize QVideoSurfaceFormat::frameSize ( ) const

Returns the size of frames in a video stream.

See also
setFrameSize(), frameWidth(), frameHeight()
int QVideoSurfaceFormat::frameWidth ( ) const

Returns the width of frames in a video stream.

See also
frameSize(), frameHeight()
QAbstractVideoBuffer::HandleType QVideoSurfaceFormat::handleType ( ) const

Returns the type of handle the surface uses to present the frame data.

If the handle type is QAbstractVideoBuffer::NoHandle buffers with any handle type are valid provided they can be mapped with the QAbstractVideoBuffer::ReadOnly flag. If the handleType() is not QAbstractVideoBuffer::NoHandle then the handle type of the buffer be the same as that of the surface format.

bool QVideoSurfaceFormat::isValid ( ) const

Identifies if a video surface format has a valid pixel format and frame size. Returns true if the format is valid, and false otherwise.

bool QVideoSurfaceFormat::operator!= ( const QVideoSurfaceFormat &  other) const

Returns true if other is different to a video format, and false if they are the same.

QVideoSurfaceFormat & QVideoSurfaceFormat::operator= ( const QVideoSurfaceFormat &  other)

Copy assigns from other and returns a reference to this object.

bool QVideoSurfaceFormat::operator== ( const QVideoSurfaceFormat &  other) const

Returns true if other is the same as a video format, and false if they are the different.

QSize QVideoSurfaceFormat::pixelAspectRatio ( ) const

Returns a video stream's pixel aspect ratio.

See also
setPixelAspectRatio()
QVideoFrame::PixelFormat QVideoSurfaceFormat::pixelFormat ( ) const

Returns the pixel format of frames in a video stream.

QVariant QVideoSurfaceFormat::property ( const QString name) const

Returns the value of the video format's name property.

See also
setProperty()
QList< QString > QVideoSurfaceFormat::propertyNames ( ) const

Returns a list of video format dynamic property names.

Direction QVideoSurfaceFormat::scanLineDirection ( ) const

Returns the direction of scan lines.

See also
setScanLineDirection()
void QVideoSurfaceFormat::setFrameRate ( qreal  rate)

Sets the frame rate of a video stream in frames per second.

See also
frameRate()
void QVideoSurfaceFormat::setFrameSize ( const QSize size)

Sets the size of frames in a video stream to size. This will reset the viewport() to fill the entire frame.

See also
frameSize()
void QVideoSurfaceFormat::setFrameSize ( int  width,
int  height 
)

Sets the width and height of frames in a video stream. This will reset the viewport() to fill the entire frame.

void QVideoSurfaceFormat::setPixelAspectRatio ( const QSize ratio)

Sets a video stream's pixel aspect ratio.

See also
pixelAspectRatio()
void QVideoSurfaceFormat::setPixelAspectRatio ( int  horizontal,
int  vertical 
)

Sets the horizontal and vertical elements of a video stream's pixel aspect ratio.

void QVideoSurfaceFormat::setProperty ( QStringView  name,
const QVariant value 
)

Sets the video format's name property to value.

property()
void QVideoSurfaceFormat::setScanLineDirection ( Direction  direction)

Sets the direction of scan lines.

scanLineDirection()
void QVideoSurfaceFormat::setViewport ( const QRect viewport)

Sets the viewport of a video stream to viewport.

See also
viewport()
void QVideoSurfaceFormat::setYCbCrColorSpace ( YCbCrColorSpace  colorSpace)

Sets the Y'CbCr colorSpace of a video stream. It is only used with raw YUV frame types.

See also
yCbCrColorSpace()
QSize QVideoSurfaceFormat::sizeHint ( ) const

Returns a suggested size in pixels for the video stream. This is the size of the viewport scaled according to the pixel aspect ratio.

QRect QVideoSurfaceFormat::viewport ( ) const

Returns the viewport of a video stream. The viewport is the region of a video frame that is actually displayed. By default the viewport covers an entire frame.
