[media][dvb-core] Question on dvr device copy

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Currently when playing stream from memory through dvr device (through write
calls), the written buffer is copied from user-space to kernel space. The
same applies when recording a stream, the TS packets received from HW are
copied to dvr ring-buffer.

I'm a bit concerned about the performance due to the copy, and whether we
better have a memory mapped ring-buffer in dvr device output and/or dvr
device input with user-space to cope with high bitrate streams.

Your feedback on this will be mostly appreciated.

Thanks
Hamad
