Tutorial: Reading an ASF File by Using WMContainer Objects
This tutorial shows how to get data packets from an Advanced Systems Format (ASF) file using the ASF Splitter. In this tutorial, you will create a simple console application that reads an ASF file and generates compressed media samples for the first video stream in the file. The application displays information about the key frames in the video stream.
This tutorial contains the following steps:
- Prerequisites
- 1. Set up the Project
- 2. Open an ASF File
- 3. Read the ASF Header Object
- 4. Create the ASF Splitter
- 5. Select a Stream for Parsing
- 6. Generate Compressed Media Samples
- 7. Write the Entry-Point Function
- Program Listing
- Related topics
The tutorial does not cover how to decode the compressed data that the application gets from the ASF splitter.
Prerequisites
This tutorial assumes the following:
- You are familiar with the structure of an ASF file and the components provided by Media Foundation to work with ASF Objects. These components include the ContentInfo object, splitter, multiplexer, and profile. For more information, see WMContainer ASF Components.
- You are familiar with Media Buffers and byte streams: Specifically, file operations using a byte stream, reading from a byte stream into a media buffer, and writing the contents of a media buffer to a byte stream.
1. Set up the Project
Include the following headers in your source file:
#include <stdio.h> // Standard I/O
#include <windows.h> // Windows headers
#include <mfapi.h> // Media Foundation platform
#include <wmcontainer.h> // ASF interfaces
#include <Mferror.h>
Link to the following library files:
- mfplat.lib
- mf.lib
- mfuuid.lib
Declare the SafeRelease function:
template <class T> void SafeRelease(T **ppT)
{
if (*ppT)
{
(*ppT)->Release();
*ppT = NULL;
}
}
2. Open an ASF File
Next, open the specified file by calling the MFCreateFile function. The method returns a pointer to the byte stream object that contains the contents of the file. The filename is specified by the user through command line arguments of the application.
The following example code takes a file name and returns a pointer to a byte stream object that can be used to read the file.
// Open the file.
hr = MFCreateFile(MF_ACCESSMODE_READ, MF_OPENMODE_FAIL_IF_NOT_EXIST,
MF_FILEFLAGS_NONE, pszFileName, &pStream);
3. Read the ASF Header Object
Next, create the ASF ContentInfo Object and use it to parse the ASF Header Object of the specified file. The ContentInfo object stores information from the ASF header, including global file attributes and information about each stream. You will use the ContentInfo object later in the tutorial to initialize the ASF splitter and get the stream number of the video stream.
To create the ASF ContentInfo object:
- Call the MFCreateASFContentInfo function to create a ContentInfo object. The method returns a pointer to the IMFASFContentInfo interface.
- Read the first 30 bytes of data from the ASF file into a media buffer.
- Pass the media buffer to the IMFASFContentInfo::GetHeaderSize method. This method returns the total size of the Header Object in the ASF file.
- Pass the same media buffer to the IMFASFContentInfo::ParseHeader method.
- Read the remainder of the Header Object into a new media buffer.
- Pass the second buffer to the ParseHeader method. Specify the 30-byte offset in the cbOffsetWithinHeader parameter of ParseHeader. The ParseHeader method initializes the ContentInfo object with information gathered from the various ASF objects contained in the Header Object.
// Read the ASF Header Object from a byte stream and return a pointer to the
// populated ASF ContentInfo object.
//
// The current read position of the byte stream must be at the start of the
// ASF Header Object.
HRESULT CreateContentInfo(IMFByteStream *pStream,
IMFASFContentInfo **ppContentInfo)
{
const DWORD MIN_ASF_HEADER_SIZE = 30;
QWORD cbHeader = 0;
DWORD cbBuffer = 0;
IMFASFContentInfo *pContentInfo = NULL;
IMFMediaBuffer *pBuffer = NULL;
// Create the ASF ContentInfo object.
HRESULT hr = MFCreateASFContentInfo(&pContentInfo);
// Read the first 30 bytes to find the total header size.
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
hr = MFCreateMemoryBuffer(MIN_ASF_HEADER_SIZE, &pBuffer);
}
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
hr = ReadFromByteStream(pStream, pBuffer,MIN_ASF_HEADER_SIZE);
}
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
hr = pContentInfo->GetHeaderSize(pBuffer, &cbHeader);
}
// Pass the first 30 bytes to the ContentInfo object.
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
hr = pContentInfo->ParseHeader(pBuffer, 0);
}
SafeRelease(&pBuffer);
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
cbBuffer = (DWORD)(cbHeader - MIN_ASF_HEADER_SIZE);
hr = MFCreateMemoryBuffer(cbBuffer, &pBuffer);
}
// Read the rest of the header and finish parsing the header.
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
hr = ReadFromByteStream(pStream, pBuffer, cbBuffer);
}
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
hr = pContentInfo->ParseHeader(pBuffer, MIN_ASF_HEADER_SIZE);
}
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
// Return the pointer to the caller.
*ppContentInfo = pContentInfo;
(*ppContentInfo)->AddRef();
}
SafeRelease(&pBuffer);
SafeRelease(&pContentInfo);
return hr;
}
This function uses the ReadFromByteStream function to read from a byte stream into a media buffer:
// Read data from a byte stream into a media buffer.
//
// This function reads a maximum of cbMax bytes, or up to the size size of the
// buffer, whichever is smaller. If the end of the byte stream is reached, the
// actual amount of data read might be less than either of these values.
//
// To find out how much data was read, call IMFMediaBuffer::GetCurrentLength.
HRESULT ReadFromByteStream(
IMFByteStream *pStream, // Pointer to the byte stream.
IMFMediaBuffer *pBuffer, // Pointer to the media buffer.
DWORD cbMax // Maximum amount to read.
)
{
DWORD cbBufferMax = 0;
DWORD cbRead = 0;
BYTE *pData= NULL;
HRESULT hr = pBuffer->Lock(&pData, &cbBufferMax, NULL);
// Do not exceed the maximum size of the buffer.
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
if (cbMax > cbBufferMax)
{
cbMax = cbBufferMax;
}
// Read up to cbMax bytes.
hr = pStream->Read(pData, cbMax, &cbRead);
}
// Update the size of the valid data in the buffer.
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
hr = pBuffer->SetCurrentLength(cbRead);
}
if (pData)
{
pBuffer->Unlock();
}
return hr;
}
4. Create the ASF Splitter
Next, create the ASF Splitter object. You will use the ASF splitter to parse the ASF Data Object, which contains packetized media data for the ASF file.
To create a splitter object for the ASF File:
- Call the MFCreateASFSplitter function to create the ASF splitter. The function returns a pointer to the IMFASFSplitter interface.
- Call IMFASFSplitter::Initialize to initialize the ASF splitter. This method takes a pointer to the ContentInfo object, which was created in procedure 3.
// Create and initialize the ASF splitter.
HRESULT CreateASFSplitter (IMFASFContentInfo* pContentInfo,
IMFASFSplitter** ppSplitter)
{
IMFASFSplitter *pSplitter = NULL;
// Create the splitter object.
HRESULT hr = MFCreateASFSplitter(&pSplitter);
// Initialize the splitter to work with specific ASF data.
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
hr = pSplitter->Initialize(pContentInfo);
}
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
// Return the object to the caller.
*ppSplitter = pSplitter;
(*ppSplitter)->AddRef();
}
SafeRelease(&pSplitter);
return hr;
}
5. Select a Stream for Parsing
Next, enumerate the streams in the ASF file and select the first video stream for parsing. To enumerate the streams, you will use an ASF profile object and search for streams that have a video media type.
To select the video stream:
- Call IMFASFContentInfo::GetProfile on the ContentInfo object to create an ASF profile. Among other information, the profile describes the streams in the ASF file.
- Call IMFASFProfile::GetStreamCount to get the number of streams in the ASF file.
- Call IMFASFProfile::GetStream in a loop to enumerate the streams. The method returns a pointer to the IMFASFStreamConfig interface. It also returns the stream identifier.
- Call IMFASFStreamConfig::GetStreamType to get the major type GUID for the stream. If the major type GUID is MFMediaType_Video, the stream contains video.
- If you found a video stream in step 4, call IMFASFSplitter::SelectStreams to select the stream. This method takes an array of stream identifiers. For this tutorial, the array size is 1 because the application will parse a single stream.
The following example code enumerates the streams in the ASF file and selects the first video stream on the ASF splitter:
// Select the first video stream for parsing with the ASF splitter.
HRESULT SelectVideoStream(IMFASFContentInfo *pContentInfo,
IMFASFSplitter *pSplitter, BOOL *pbHasVideo)
{
DWORD cStreams = 0;
WORD wStreamID = 0;
IMFASFProfile *pProfile = NULL;
IMFASFStreamConfig *pStream = NULL;
// Get the ASF profile from the ContentInfo object.
HRESULT hr = pContentInfo->GetProfile(&pProfile);
// Loop through all of the streams in the profile.
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
hr = pProfile->GetStreamCount(&cStreams);
}
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
for (DWORD i = 0; i < cStreams; i++)
{
GUID streamType = GUID_NULL;
// Get the stream type and stream identifier.
hr = pProfile->GetStream(i, &wStreamID, &pStream);
if (FAILED(hr))
{
break;
}
hr = pStream->GetStreamType(&streamType);
if (FAILED(hr))
{
break;
}
if (streamType == MFMediaType_Video)
{
*pbHasVideo = TRUE;
break;
}
SafeRelease(&pStream);
}
}
// Select the video stream, if found.
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
if (*pbHasVideo)
{
// SelectStreams takes an array of stream identifiers.
hr = pSplitter->SelectStreams(&wStreamID, 1);
}
}
SafeRelease(&pStream);
SafeRelease(&pProfile);
return hr;
}
6. Generate Compressed Media Samples
Next, use the ASF splitter to parse the ASF Data Object and get the data packets for the selected video stream. The application reads data from the ASF file in fixed-size blocks and passes the data to the ASF splitter. The splitter parses the data and generates Media Samples that contain the compressed video data. The application checks whether each sample represents a key frame. If so, the application displays some basic information about the sample:
- Number of media buffers
- Total size of the data
- Time stamp
To generate compressed media samples:
- Allocate a new media buffer.
- Read data from the byte stream into the media buffer.
- Pass the media buffer to the IMFASFSplitter::ParseData method. The method parses the ASF data in the buffer.
- In a loop, get media samples from the splitter by calling IMFASFSplitter::GetNextSample. If the ppISample parameter receives a valid IMFSample pointer, it means the ASF splitter has parsed one or more data packets. If ppISample receives the value NULL, break from the loop and go back to step 1.
- Display information about the sample.
- Break from the loop in the following conditions:
- The ppISample parameter receives the value NULL.
- The pdwStatusFlags parameter does not receive the ASF_STATUSFLAGS_INCOMPLETE flag.
Repeat these steps until you reach the end of the file. The following code shows these steps:
// Parse the video stream and display information about the video samples.
//
// The current read position of the byte stream must be at the start of the ASF
// Data Object.
HRESULT DisplayKeyFrames(IMFByteStream *pStream, IMFASFSplitter *pSplitter)
{
const DWORD cbReadSize = 2048; // Read size (arbitrary value)
IMFMediaBuffer *pBuffer = NULL;
IMFSample *pSample = NULL;
HRESULT hr = S_OK;
while (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
// The parser must get a newly allocated buffer each time.
hr = MFCreateMemoryBuffer(cbReadSize, &pBuffer);
if (FAILED(hr))
{
break;
}
// Read data into the buffer.
hr = ReadFromByteStream(pStream, pBuffer, cbReadSize);
if (FAILED(hr))
{
break;
}
// Get the amound of data that was read.
DWORD cbData;
hr = pBuffer->GetCurrentLength(&cbData);
if (FAILED(hr))
{
break;
}
if (cbData == 0)
{
break; // End of file.
}
// Send the data to the ASF splitter.
hr = pSplitter->ParseData(pBuffer, 0, 0);
SafeRelease(&pBuffer);
if (FAILED(hr))
{
break;
}
// Pull samples from the splitter.
DWORD parsingStatus = 0;
do
{
WORD streamID;
hr = pSplitter->GetNextSample(&parsingStatus, &streamID, &pSample);
if (FAILED(hr))
{
break;
}
if (pSample == NULL)
{
// No samples yet. Parse more data.
break;
}
if (IsRandomAccessPoint(pSample))
{
DisplayKeyFrame(pSample);
}
SafeRelease(&pSample);
} while (parsingStatus & ASF_STATUSFLAGS_INCOMPLETE);
}
SafeRelease(&pSample);
SafeRelease(&pBuffer);
return hr;
}
The IsKeyFrame function tests whether a sample is a key frame, by getting the value of the MFSampleExtension_CleanPoint attribute.
inline BOOL IsRandomAccessPoint(IMFSample *pSample)
{
// Check for the "clean point" attribute. Default to FALSE.
return MFGetAttributeUINT32(pSample, MFSampleExtension_CleanPoint, FALSE);
}
For illustration purposes, this tutorial displays some information for each video key frame, by calling the following function:
void DisplayKeyFrame(IMFSample *pSample)
{
DWORD cBuffers = 0; // Buffer count
DWORD cbTotalLength = 0; // Buffer length
MFTIME hnsTime = 0; // Time stamp
// Print various information about the key frame.
if (SUCCEEDED(pSample->GetBufferCount(&cBuffers)))
{
wprintf_s(L"Buffer count: %d\n", cBuffers);
}
if (SUCCEEDED(pSample->GetTotalLength(&cbTotalLength)))
{
wprintf_s(L"Length: %d bytes\n", cbTotalLength);
}
if (SUCCEEDED(pSample->GetSampleTime(&hnsTime)))
{
// Convert the time stamp to seconds.
double sec = static_cast<double>(hnsTime / 10000) / 1000;
wprintf_s(L"Time stamp: %f sec.\n", sec);
}
wprintf_s(L"\n");
}
A typical application would use the data packets for decoding, remuxing, sending over the network, or some other task.
7. Write the Entry-Point Function
Now you can put the previous steps together into a complete application. Before using any of the Media Foundation objects, initialize the Media Foundation platform by calling MFStartup. When you are done, call MFShutdown. For more information, Initializing Media Foundation.
int wmain(int argc, WCHAR* argv[])
{
if (argc != 2)
{
_s(L"Usage: %s input.wmv");
return 0;
}
// Start the Media Foundation platform.
HRESULT hr = MFStartup(MF_VERSION);
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
PCWSTR pszFileName = argv[1];
BOOL bHasVideo = FALSE;
IMFByteStream *pStream = NULL;
IMFASFContentInfo *pContentInfo = NULL;
IMFASFSplitter *pSplitter = NULL;
// Open the file.
hr = MFCreateFile(MF_ACCESSMODE_READ, MF_OPENMODE_FAIL_IF_NOT_EXIST,
MF_FILEFLAGS_NONE, pszFileName, &pStream);
// Read the ASF header.
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
hr = CreateContentInfo(pStream, &pContentInfo);
}
// Create the ASF splitter.
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
hr = CreateASFSplitter(pContentInfo, &pSplitter);
}
// Select the first video stream.
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
hr = SelectVideoStream(pContentInfo, pSplitter, &bHasVideo);
}
// Parse the ASF file.
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
if (bHasVideo)
{
hr = DisplayKeyFrames(pStream, pSplitter);
}
else
{
wprintf_s(L"No video stream.\n");
}
}
SafeRelease(&pSplitter);
SafeRelease(&pContentInfo);
SafeRelease(&pStream);
// Shut down the Media Foundation platform.
MFShutdown();
}
if (FAILED(hr))
{
wprintf_s(L"Error: 0x%X\n", hr);
}
return 0;
}
