Android自带硬解码解码类型说明MediaCodec使用必看

一、背景

随着Android系统手机性能的不断提升,现阶段大部分手机都自带GPU(承担图形显示的专门硬件),大幅度提高手机显示性能,在视频显示、游戏画面刷新,和高分辨图像显示方面必须使用GPU。GOOGLE在API 16 -4.1版本中增加MediaCodec类,专用于编解码多媒体数据,

二、MediaCodec使用方式

     MediaCodec总共有三种使用方法,如下图所示:

          同步数据处理(使用buffer arrays) 从Android4.1 api 16即可以使用;

          同步数据处理 (使用buffers ) 从Android5.0 api 21 即可以使用;

          异步数据处理(使用buffers ) 从Android5.0 api 21 即可以使用;

同步与异步处理数据的主要不同点是:对于同步处理是循环的将待处理数据交给编解码器(不用理会编解码器是否已经准备好接收数据),而异步处理则是每次都会去等待编解码器已经能够处理数据时,才将待处理数据送给相应编解码器。

MediaCodec is typically used like this in asynchronous mode:

MediaCodec codec = MediaCodec.createByCodecName(name);
 MediaFormat mOutputFormat; // member variable
 codec.setCallback(new MediaCodec.Callback() {
   @Override
   void onInputBufferAvailable(MediaCodec mc, int inputBufferId) {
     ByteBuffer inputBuffer = codec.getInputBuffer(inputBufferId);
     // fill inputBuffer with valid data
     …
     codec.queueInputBuffer(inputBufferId, …);
   }

   @Override
   void onOutputBufferAvailable(MediaCodec mc, int outputBufferId, …) {
     ByteBuffer outputBuffer = codec.getOutputBuffer(outputBufferId);
     MediaFormat bufferFormat = codec.getOutputFormat(outputBufferId); // option A
     // bufferFormat is equivalent to mOutputFormat
     // outputBuffer is ready to be processed or rendered.
     …
     codec.releaseOutputBuffer(outputBufferId, …);
   }

   @Override
   void onOutputFormatChanged(MediaCodec mc, MediaFormat format) {
     // Subsequent data will conform to new format.
     // Can ignore if using getOutputFormat(outputBufferId)
     mOutputFormat = format; // option B
   }

   @Override
   void onError(…) {
     …
   }
 });
 codec.configure(format, …);
 mOutputFormat = codec.getOutputFormat(); // option B
 codec.start();
 // wait for processing to complete
 codec.stop();
 codec.release();

Synchronous Processing using Buffers

 MediaCodec codec = MediaCodec.createByCodecName(name);
 codec.configure(format, …);
 MediaFormat outputFormat = codec.getOutputFormat(); // option B
 codec.start();
 for (;;) {
   int inputBufferId = codec.dequeueInputBuffer(timeoutUs);
   if (inputBufferId >= 0) {
     ByteBuffer inputBuffer = codec.getInputBuffer(…);
     // fill inputBuffer with valid data
     …
     codec.queueInputBuffer(inputBufferId, …);
   }
   int outputBufferId = codec.dequeueOutputBuffer(…);
   if (outputBufferId >= 0) {
     ByteBuffer outputBuffer = codec.getOutputBuffer(outputBufferId);
     MediaFormat bufferFormat = codec.getOutputFormat(outputBufferId); // option A
     // bufferFormat is identical to outputFormat
     // outputBuffer is ready to be processed or rendered.
     …
     codec.releaseOutputBuffer(outputBufferId, …);
   } else if (outputBufferId == MediaCodec.INFO_OUTPUT_FORMAT_CHANGED) {
     // Subsequent data will conform to new format.
     // Can ignore if using getOutputFormat(outputBufferId)
     outputFormat = codec.getOutputFormat(); // option B
   }
 }
 codec.stop();
 codec.release();

三、MediaCodec能够硬编解码的类型



其中对于视频格式,MediaCodec支持的有vp8 、VP9 、H.264、H.265、MPEG4、H.263基本上涵盖了现今流行的所有视频格式,

对于音频来说,MediaCodec支持的音频格式有3gppamr-wb、amr-wb、amr-wb、g711-A、g711-U 、AAC(not packaged in LATM)

  • "video/x-vnd.on2.vp8" - VP8 video (i.e. video in .webm)
  • "video/x-vnd.on2.vp9" - VP9 video (i.e. video in .webm)
  • "video/avc" - H.264/AVC video
  • "video/hevc" - H.265/HEVC video
  • "video/mp4v-es" - MPEG4 video
  • "video/3gpp" - H.263 video


  • "audio/3gpp" - AMR narrowband audio
  • "audio/amr-wb" - AMR wideband audio
  • "audio/amr-wb" - MPEG1/2 audio layer III
  • "audio/mp4a-latm" - AAC audio (note, this is raw AAC packets, not packaged in LATM!)
  • "audio/amr-wb" - vorbis audio
  • "audio/g711-alaw" - G.711 alaw audio
  • "audio/g711-mlaw" - G.711 ulaw audio
