一、背景
1、当播放网络视频流时(比如udp视频流)，发送方(编码)和接收方(解码)是并行操作的，如果发送太慢(或因为网络原因出现延迟)的话，接收方将不能及时得到数据，导致解码出错，所以需要对接收buffer进行管理。
2、编码器会把自身的参考时钟(PCR)保存到视频流中，供解码器同步用。对于网络视频流，VLC也通过接收的PCR信息与自身系统时钟比较，以计算网络延迟并相应的调节接收buffer。
二、buffer管理(pts_delay)
1、input_clock

三、时钟同步(drift)
Data caching is mainly a way to cope with streams which have unreliable
sending rates (be it network/server latency, jitter, bursts, etc). Now
if you need heavy caching, that more than likely means you have large
changes in your receiving rate, so you'll want to increase cr-average to
smooth out these changes.
This is why the default caching in the udp access module is pretty low (udp
is mostly used for reliable / low delay streaming), while you have a high
caching value for http.
I do agree that the problems you raise need to be fixed, although I don't
think your fixes are appropriate.
The clock synchro algo is there to keep the playback speed synchronised with
the server, not only to avoid buffer underruns / overruns, but also to keep
a low delay from the server (depending on the value of caching set by the
user).
The problem with VLC's clock is that it does its synchro by comparing the
time of arrival of data with the timestamp set on it by the server, aka the
PCR (which btw is why the prebuffering introduced lately might not be such
a good idea).
This method is appropriate for very low delay streaming which doesn't have
much jitter and bursts in the transmission, but it isn't for anything else
(and remember, VLC was designed as an intranet streaming client).
If VLC is allowed to cache enough data, then a more sensible way to do this
synchro is to actually look at how much data we have in our cache (in units
of time), and if this value is above or below some treshold then start
adapting the clock. It might still be interesting (or not) to keep using
the current synchro algo for very low delay streams though.
1、drift计算
请参考前面的"input_clock_Update"
void input_clock_Update( input_clock_t *cl, vlc_object_t *p_log,
bool *pb_late,
bool b_can_pace_control, bool b_buffering_allowed,
mtime_t i_ck_stream, mtime_t i_ck_system )
{
.
if( !b_can_pace_control && cl->i_next_drift_update < i_ck_system )
{
const mtime_t i_converted = ClockSystemToStream( cl, i_ck_system );
AvgUpdate( &cl->drift, i_converted - i_ck_stream ); //计算并更新平均偏移
cl->i_next_drift_update = i_ck_system + CLOCK_FREQ/5; /* FIXME why that */
}
bool *pb_late,
bool b_can_pace_control, bool b_buffering_allowed,
mtime_t i_ck_stream, mtime_t i_ck_system )
{
.if( !b_can_pace_control && cl->i_next_drift_update < i_ck_system )
{
const mtime_t i_converted = ClockSystemToStream( cl, i_ck_system );
AvgUpdate( &cl->drift, i_converted - i_ck_stream ); //计算并更新平均偏移
cl->i_next_drift_update = i_ck_system + CLOCK_FREQ/5; /* FIXME why that */
}
2、drift的使用
int input_clock_ConvertTS( input_clock_t *cl,
int *pi_rate, mtime_t *pi_ts0, mtime_t *pi_ts1,
mtime_t i_ts_bound )
{
.
/* */
const mtime_t i_ts_buffering = cl->i_buffering_duration * cl->i_rate / INPUT_RATE_DEFAULT;
const mtime_t i_ts_delay = cl->i_pts_delay + ClockGetTsOffset( cl );
/* */
if( *pi_ts0 > VLC_TS_INVALID )
{
*pi_ts0 = ClockStreamToSystem( cl, *pi_ts0 + AvgGet( &cl->drift ) ); //补偿时钟偏移
if( *pi_ts0 > cl->i_ts_max ) cl->i_ts_max = *pi_ts0; *pi_ts0 += i_ts_delay; }
int *pi_rate, mtime_t *pi_ts0, mtime_t *pi_ts1,
mtime_t i_ts_bound )
{
./* */
const mtime_t i_ts_buffering = cl->i_buffering_duration * cl->i_rate / INPUT_RATE_DEFAULT;
const mtime_t i_ts_delay = cl->i_pts_delay + ClockGetTsOffset( cl );
/* */
if( *pi_ts0 > VLC_TS_INVALID )
{
*pi_ts0 = ClockStreamToSystem( cl, *pi_ts0 + AvgGet( &cl->drift ) ); //补偿时钟偏移
if( *pi_ts0 > cl->i_ts_max ) cl->i_ts_max = *pi_ts0; *pi_ts0 += i_ts_delay; }
