前言:

在iOS中,我们会常常看到 CVPixelBufferRef 这个类型,最常见到的场景是在Camera 采集的时候,返回的数据中有一个CMSampleBufferRef,而每个CMSampleBufferRef则包含一个 CVPixelBufferRef,在视频硬解码的返回数据里也是一个 CVPixelBufferRef(里面包含了所有的压缩的图片信息)。在了解了CVPixelBufferRef之后,我们将能够掌握并且运用CVPixelBufferRef的使用;

本篇我们主要熟悉下CVPixelBuffer的使用;

CVPixelBuffer 简介

CVPixelBuffer:核心视频像素缓冲区是在主存储器中保存像素的图像缓冲区。生成帧、压缩或解压缩视频或使用 Core Image 的应用程序都可以使用 CVPixelBuffer

CVPixelBufferRef:是像素缓冲区类型,对CVPixelBuffer对象的引用。像素缓冲区类型基于图像缓冲区类型;像素缓冲器实现了图像缓冲器的存储器存储。

/*!
@typedef CVPixelBufferRef
@abstract Based on the image buffer type. The pixel buffer implements the memory storage for an image buffer.

*/
typedef CVImageBufferRef CVPixelBufferRef;

由于CVPixelBufferRef是C中的对象,所以没有ARC内存管理,必须由开发者自己去管理引用计数,控制对象生命周期;

首先,我们先来了解有关CVPixelBufferRef的基础方法,例如:CVPixelBufferRef的创建、持有、释放;

创建

创建的方法有四种,前三种常用到:

  • CVPixelBufferCreate()
  • CVPixelBufferCreateWithBytes()
  • CVPixelBufferCreateWithPlanarBytes()
  • CVPixelBufferCreateWithIOSurface()

修改

在使用 CPU 访问像素数据之前必须调用CVPixelBufferLockBaseAddress,然后再调用CVPixelBufferUnlockBaseAddress
而使用 GPU 访问像素数据时,就没有这个必要了。

内存管理(保留或者释放)

这里在开篇的时候也提到过,由于CVPixelBufferRef是C中的对象,所以不存在ARC内存管理,由开发者自己去管理引用计数,从而控制对象的生命周期;

CV_EXPORT CVPixelBufferRef CV_NULLABLE CVPixelBufferRetain( CVPixelBufferRef CV_NULLABLE texture ) __OSX_AVAILABLE_STARTING(__MAC_10_4,__IPHONE_4_0);

CV_EXPORT void CVPixelBufferRelease( CV_RELEASES_ARGUMENT CVPixelBufferRef CV_NULLABLE texture ) __OSX_AVAILABLE_STARTING(__MAC_10_4,__IPHONE_4_0);

检查

CVPixelBufferGetHeight 返回像素缓冲区的高度
CVPixelBufferGetWidth 返回像素缓冲区的宽度

这里方法较多,就不一一举例,可以查看官方文档

像素格式类型 kCVPixelFormatType

RGB :

kCVPixelFormatType_32BGRA = 'BGRA'
kCVPixelFormatType_32BGRA = 'BGRA',
kCVPixelFormatType_32ABGR = 'ABGR',  
kCVPixelFormatType_32RGBA = 'RGBA',

NV12 :

kCVPixelFormatType_420YpCbCr8BiPlanarVideoRange = '420v',
kCVPixelFormatType_420YpCbCr8BiPlanarFullRange = '420f',

YUV420P :
kCVPixelFormatType_420YpCbCr8Planar = 'y420',

1
kCVPixelFormatType_{长度|序列}{颜色空间}{Planar|BiPlanar}{VideoRange|FullRange}

从这里类型可以看出,YUV格式和RGB格式都是可以创建成CVPixelBuffer;

那么拿到CVPixelBufferRef后,如果要显示的话, 我们可以通过CVPixelBufferRef转成UIImage,或者通过绘制纹理的形式展示。

想要更清楚的了解kCVPixelFormatType这些类型,那么就需要我们对YUV格式和RGB格式有更深入的了解,所以在下一篇中,我们将对两种格式进行详细的说明,然后再来看kCVPixelFormatType,那样将会加深我们对此的了解程度。
