背景
创建 x264 编码器后,其有一组默认的编码器配置参数,也可以根据需要修改参数,来满足编码要求。
具体参数
可修改的参数,比较多,这边只列举一些常用的。
获取可以配置的参数
方式1
查看 ffmpeg源码 libx264.c,其中
static const AVOption options[] = {xx};这表示其可修改的参数,其他编码器类似。

通过 ffmpeg 命令行查找
ffmpeg -h encoder=libx264
常用参数讲解
preset
主要调节编码速度和质量的平衡
可以设置的值,{ "ultrafast", "superfast", "veryfast", "faster", "fast", "medium", "slow", "slower", "veryslow", "placebo", 0 };
如何获取可以设置哪些值,看注释是编译 x264,然后运行 x264 --fullhelp 可以看到。我这边嫌麻烦没有编译,看 x264 源码获取的
tune
主要配合视频类型和视觉优化的参数
可以设置的值,{ "film", "animation", "grain", "stillimage", "psnr", "ssim", "fastdecode", "zerolatency", 0 };
film: 电影、真人类型;
animation: 动画;
grain: 需要保留大量的grain时用;
psnr: 为提高psnr做了优化的参数;
ssim: 为提高ssim做了优化的参数;
fastdecode: 可以快速解码的参数;
zerolatency:零延迟,用在需要非常低的延迟的情况下,比如电视电话会议的编码。
profile
支持一组特定的编码功能,并支持一类特定的应用
x264_profile_names[] = { "baseline", "main", "high", "high10", "high422", "high444", 0 };
baseline:基本画质。支持I/P 帧,只支持无交错(Progressive)和CAVLC;
main:主流画质。提供I/P/B 帧,支持无交错(Progressive)和交错(Interlaced),也支持CAVLC 和CABAC 的支持;
high:高级画质。在main Profile 的基础上增加了8x8内部预测、自定义量化、 无损视频编码和更多的YUV 格式;
level
每个profile 都规定了一个算法特征和限制的子集,任何遵守某个profile 的解码器都应该支持与其相应的子集。
每个level都规定了一组对标准中语法成员(syntax element)所采用的各种参数值的限制。
nal-hrd
码率控制方式 。
none ------ 不使用 hrd
vbr ------ 可变码率
cbr ------ 稳定码率
crf
qp
psy
rc-lookahead
