I implemented a network video player (like VLC) using ffmpeg. But it can not decode AAC audio stream received from a IP camera. It can decode other audio sterams like G711, G726 etc. I set the codec ID as AV_CODEC_ID_AAC and I set channels and sample rate of AvCodecContext. But avcodec_decode_audio4 fails with an error code of INVALID_DATA. I checked previously asked questions, I tried to add extrabytes to AvCodecContext using media format specific parameters of "config=1408". And I set extradatabytes as 2 bytes of "20" and "8" but it also not worked. I appreciate any help, thanks.
IP CAMERA SDP:
a=rtpmap:96 mpeg4-generic/16000/1
a=fmtp:96 streamtype=5; profile-level-id=5; mode=AAC-hbr; config=1408; SizeLength=13; IndexLength=3; IndexDeltaLength=3
AVCodec* decoder = avcodec_find_decoder((::AVCodecID)id);//set as AV_CODEC_ID_AAC
AVCodecContext* decoderContext = avcodec_alloc_context3(decoder);
char* test = (char*)System::Runtime::InteropServices::Marshal::StringToHGlobalAnsi("1408").ToPointer();
unsigned int length;
uint8_t* extradata = parseGeneralConfigStr(test, length);//it is set as 0x14 and 0x08
decoderContext->channels = number_of_channels; //set as 1
decoderContext->sample_rate = sample_rate; //set as 16000
decoderContext->channel_layout = AV_CH_LAYOUT_MONO;
decoderContext->codec_type = AVMEDIA_TYPE_AUDIO;
decoderContext->extradata = (uint8_t*)av_malloc(AV_INPUT_BUFFER_PADDING_SIZE + length);
memcpy(decoderContext->extradata, extradata, length);
memset(decoderContext->extradata+ length, 0, AV_INPUT_BUFFER_PADDING_SIZE);
Did you check data for INVALID_DATA?
You can check it according to RFC
RFC3640 (3.2 RTP Payload Structure)
AAC Payload can be seperated like below
AU-Header | Size Info | ADTS | Data
Example payload 00 10 0c 00 ff f1 60 40 30 01 7c 01 30 35 ac
According to configs that u shared
AU-size (SizeLength=13)
AU-Index / AU-Index-delta (IndexLength=3/IndexDeltaLength=3)
The length in bits of AU-Header is 13(SizeLength) + 3(IndexLength/IndexDeltaLength) = 16.
AU-Header 00 10
You should use AU-size(SizeLength) value for Size Info
AU-size: Indicates the size in octets of the associated Access Unit in the Access Unit Data Section in the same RTP packet.
First 13 (SizeLength) bits 0000000000010 equals to 2. So read 2 octets for size info.
Size Info 0c 00
