QuickSync AVC encoder crash access violation

Hello

I'm new in QuickSync and Intel Media SDK. So, I've checked examples and tutorials. I need to encode YUV420P input frames with AVC encoder with HW acceleration support. As a start point I took the simple_encode sample(the one where system memory used for encoding surfaces). I've inited all the parameters, but the crash(access violation reading location) occurs after encoding starts(about 730-760 msec frame timestamp). Tried on different videos. I've checked the FFMPEG implementation, but still couldn't fix the crash. Also, I've tried to use aligned memory for surface data and separate bitstream instances for each encode call and copy the frame data and copy the packet data to standalone instances. But the crash still occurs. I'm stuck wit this and not sure how to fix this. Also, I've checked the behavior on different Intel GPU with same result. Intel Media trace didn't cleared anything. My hardware: Intel Core i7-6700K(Intel HD Graphics 530). 1 monitor connected to NVidia GPU, Intel HD Graphics is not connected to monitor(this is a valid use case for DX11, as I can see). The D3D9 initialization fails, but D3D11 works fine. Please, check my initialization and encode calls below.

Also, I have to note, GetFreeSurface method is always returns first surface(idx == 0) and output packets have wrong PTS/DTS(usually 0). See the logs below. The frames to Encode method are coming in presentation order.

Update: the memory align is set to 1 outside of this code(#pragma pack 1). If restore the default value(8) the crash is not occurs. Similar behavior is sample_encode example. Doesn it means the Intel Media SDK strucures are sensitive to memory align ? Can you confirm default align(8) should be used ?

Hi Andrey,

I can confirm this since I never heard about this assumption before.

You can also check out the programing guideline in the following section:

https://github.com/Intel-Media-SDK/MediaSDK/blob/master/doc/Coding_guidelines.md#macro

There are more comment in this macro definition:

https://github.com/Intel-Media-SDK/MediaSDK/blob/master/api/include/mfxdefs.h#L53

Let me know if this helps.

Update: I've found a problem. It looks like there is something else sensitive to memory align but surfaces size and frame size. In my code the align was set to 1(it was a surprise for me) and this caused a crash. Crash fixed with #pragma pack(8) - the default value.

They say you just need to ask someone and you will find a solution. Thanks! :-)

Hello

Yes. This is helpful. Sorry for duplicating posts(I didn't see they are posted).

As I mentioned, I used the pack(8) to avoid this issue. Now I can see the align 4 or 8 is the Intel requirement.

Thanks!
