Detailed Description

Codec Management

Codec Manager

The codec manager is used to manage all codec capabilities in the endpoint. When used with media endpoint (pjmedia_endpt), application can retrieve the codec manager instance by calling pjmedia_endpt_get_codec_mgr().

Registering New Codec

New codec types can be registered to PJMEDIA (or to be precise, to the codec manager) during run-time. To do this, application needs to initialize an instance of codec factory (pjmedia_codec_factory) and registers this codec factory by calling pjmedia_codec_mgr_register_factory().

For codecs implemented/supported by PJMEDIA, this process is normally concealed in an easy to use function such as pjmedia_codec_g711_init().

Codec Factory

A codec factory (pjmedia_codec_factory) is registered to codec manager, and it is used to create and release codec instance.

The most important member of the codec factory is the "virtual" function table pjmedia_codec_factory_op, where it contains, among other thing, pointer to functions to allocate and deallocate codec instance.

Codec Instance

Application allocates codec instance by calling pjmedia_codec_mgr_alloc_codec(). One codec instance (pjmedia_codec) can be used for simultaneous encoding and decoding.

The most important member of the codec instance is the "virtual" function table pjmedia_codec_op, where it holds pointer to functions to encode/decode media frames.

Codec Identification

A particular codec type in PJMEDIA can be uniquely identified by two keys: by pjmedia_codec_info, or by pjmedia_codec_id string. A fully qualified codec ID string consists of codec name, sampling rate, and number of channels. However, application may use only first parts of the tokens as long as it will make to codec ID unique. For example, "gsm" is a fully qualified codec name, since it will always have 8000 clock rate and 1 channel. Other examples of fully qualified codec ID strings are "pcma", "speex/8000", "speex/16000", and "L16/16000/1". A codec id "speex" (without clock rate) is not fully qualified, since it will match the narrowband, wideband, and ultrawideband Speex codec.

The two keys can be converted to one another, with pjmedia_codec_info_to_id() and pjmedia_codec_mgr_find_codecs_by_id() functions.

Codec ID string is not case sensitive.

Using the Codec Framework

Allocating Codec

Application needs to allocate one codec instance for encoding and decoding media frames. One codec instance can be used to perform both encoding and decoding.

Application allocates codec by calling pjmedia_codec_mgr_alloc_codec(). This function takes pjmedia_codec_info argument, which is used to locate the particular codec factory to be used to allocate the codec.

Application can build pjmedia_codec_info structure manually for the specific codec, or alternatively it may get the pjmedia_codec_info from the codec ID string, by using pjmedia_codec_mgr_find_codecs_by_id() function.

The following snippet shows an example to allocate a codec:

pj_str_t codec_id;
pjmedia_codec_info *codec_info;
unsigned count = 1;
pjmedia_codec *codec;
 
codec_id = pj_str("pcma");
 
// Find codec info for the specified coded ID (i.e. "pcma").
status = pjmedia_codec_mgr_find_codecs_by_id( codec_mgr, &codec_id,
                                              &count, &codec_info, NULL);
 
// Allocate the codec.
status = pjmedia_codec_mgr_alloc_codec( codec_mgr, codec_info, &codec );

Initializing Codec

Once codec is allocated, application needs to initialize the codec by calling open member of the codec. This function takes pjmedia_codec_param as the argument, which contains the settings for the codec.

Application shoud use pjmedia_codec_mgr_get_default_param() function to initiaize pjmedia_codec_param. The setting part of pjmedia_codec_param then can be tuned to suit the application's requirements.

The following snippet shows an example to initialize codec:

pjmedia_codec_param param;
 
// Retrieve default codec param for the specified codec.
pjmedia_codec_mgr_get_default_param(codec_mgr, codec_info,
                                    &param);
 
// Application may change the "settings" part of codec param,
// for example, to disable VAD
param.setting.vad = 0;
 
// Open the codec using the specified settings.
codec->op->open( codec, &param );

Encoding and Decoding Media Frames

Application encodes and decodes media frames by calling encode and decode member of the codec's "virtual" function table (pjmedia_codec_op).

Concealing Lost Frames

All codecs has Packet Lost Concealment (PLC) feature, and application can activate the PLC to conceal lost frames by calling recover member of the codec's "virtual" function table (pjmedia_codec_op).

If the codec's algorithm supports PLC, the recover function will use the codec's PLC. Otherwise for codecs that don't have intrinsic PLC, PJMEDIA will suply the PLC implementation from the Packet Lost Concealment (PLC) implementation.

Closing and Releasing the Codec

The codec must be closed by calling close member of the codec's operation. Then it must be released by calling pjmedia_codec_mgr_dealloc_codec().
