- Ensure the yadif .metal compiles when targeting any Metal runtime version
- Use some preprocessor awkwardness to ensure Core Video's Metal-specific
functionality is exposed regardless of our deployment target (this works
around what seems to be an SDK header bug, filed as FB9816002)
- Ensure all direct references to Metal functions and classes are gated
behind runtime version checks (this satisfies clang's deployment-target
violation warnings provided by -Wunguarded-availability).
deinterlaces CVPixelBuffers, i.e. AV_PIX_FMT_VIDEOTOOLBOX frames
for example, an interlaced mpeg2 video can be decoded by avcodec,
uploaded into a CVPixelBuffer, deinterlaced by Metal, and then
encoded to h264 by VideoToolbox as follows:
ffmpeg \
-init_hw_device videotoolbox \
-i interlaced.ts \
-vf hwupload,yadif_videotoolbox \
-c:v h264_videotoolbox \
-b:v 2000k \
-c:a copy \
-y progressive.ts
(note that uploading AVFrame into CVPixelBuffer via hwupload
requires 504c60660d)
