Struct I420AVideoFrame

Single video frame encoded in I420A format (triplanar YUV with optional alpha plane). See e.g. https://wiki.videolan.org/YUV/#I420 for details.

The I420 format uses chroma downsampling in both directions, resulting in 12 bits per pixel. With the optional alpha plane, the size increases to 20 bits per pixel.

Namespace: Microsoft.MixedReality.WebRTC
Assembly: Microsoft.MixedReality.WebRTC.dll
Syntax
public struct I420AVideoFrame
Remarks

The use of ref struct is an optimization to avoid heap allocation on each frame while having a nicer-to-use container to pass a frame accross methods.

The alpha plane is generically supported in this data structure, but actual support in the video tracks depend on the underlying implementation and the video codec used, and is generally not available.

CopyTo(Byte[])

Copy the frame content to a Byte[] buffer as a contiguous block of memory containing the Y, U, and V planes one after another, and the alpha plane at the end if present.

Declaration
public void CopyTo(byte[] buffer)
Parameters

Byte[] buffer

The destination buffer to copy the frame to.
