FGC REWRITER

Getting Started Document

FGC REWRITER build steps

Supports:

• x86_32/x86_64 on Linux.
• x86_32/x86_64 on Windows.

Linux Build Steps

• Use the following commands for building on the target machine

$ cd <path to clone>
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make

• Executable fgc_rewriter_app is generated in build directory.
• Edit the config_fgcr.cfg and run the following command.

$ ./fgc_rewriter_app --config config_fgcr.cfg

Windows Build Steps

Build using command line

• Create a buildtree

    fgcRewriterPath=<Path to fgc-rewriter repo>
    buildTree=<Name of buildTree folder>
    cd ${fgcRewriterPath}
    cmake . -B ${buildTree} -A x64

• Build using buildtree

    cmake --build ${buildTree} -- -p:Configuration="Release"

• Install

    cmake --install ${buildTree}

• Command to run the executable

    ./fgc_rewriter_app.exe --config config_fgcr.cfg

Build using Visual Studio

• Use the following commands for building on the target machine

$ cd <path to clone>
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..

• Open .sln (solution) in Visual Studio

  Use F7 or build using Release/Debug options

• Command to run the executable

  ./fgc_rewriter_app.exe --config config_fgcr.cfg

Parameters

Parameter	Description
--input	Input H.264 file
--output	Output H.264 file
--enable_logs	Enable log prints. This is used to print profile information. Supported values are 0 and 1. By default it is disabled.
--num_frames	Number of frames to be processed
--fgs_enable_rewriter	Flag to enable FGS rewriter. Supported values are 0 and 1. By default it is enabled.
--fgs_overide_fgc_cancel_flag	Flag to override film_grain_characteristics_cancel_flag. Supported values are 0 and 1. By default it is enabled. If FGS is present in the stream and this is disabled, the value present in the stream is taken.
--fgs_overide_log2_scale_factor	Flag to override log2_scale_factor. Supported values are 0 and 1. By default it is enabled. If FGS is present in the stream and this is disabled, the value present in the stream is taken.
--film_grain_characteristics_cancel_flag	Flag to cancel the FGS. Supported values are 0 and 1. By default it is 0.
--separate_colour_description_present_flag	Flag to set separate colour description flag. Currently only 0 is supported for this value.
--log2_scale_factor	Scale factor used in FGS. Supported range is 2-7. By default it is 2
--fgs_overide_dep_comp_model_values	Flag to override all the parameters on which comp_model_value is dependent i.e. all the below parameters in this table. Supported values are 0 and 1. By default it is enabled. If FGS is present in the stream and this is disabled, the values present in the stream is taken.
--comp_model_present_flag	Control for component model for each component
--num_intensity_intervals_minus1	Number of intensity intervals in each component
--num_model_values_minus1	0-2 : Number of model values in each component
--intensity_interval_lower_bound	Lower bound of intensity interval : 0-255
--intensity_interval_upper_bound	Upper bound of intensity interval: 0-255
--comp_model_value	Component model values for each intensity interval
