Graphics rendering pipeline for ossia score. More...

Detailed Description

Graphics rendering pipeline for ossia score.

This namespace provides a rendering pipeline for GPU visuals, by the way of a rendering graph. The implementation uses the Qt RHI:

https://www.qt.io/blog/graphics-in-qt-6.0-qrhi-qt-quick-qt-quick-3d

It is mainly designed for rendering a succession of visual effects, not rendering arbitrary 3D. Shaders are written in the usual glslang -> spirv-cross fashion, with GLSL #version 450. They are then translated automatically to SPIRV, Metal, GLSL or D3D11 shaders.

The overall design is as follows :

  • Elements to render are represented as nodes to a graph: score::gfx::Node
  • Input ports are the uniforms and input textures & audio data.
  • Output ports generally are just the texture we are rendering to.
  • score::gfx::Graph contains all the nodes, and relationships between these nodes.
  • For each output sink (a window surface, an NDI or Spout output...), a score::gfx::RenderList is created. It contains all the nodes to render for a given output.
  • For each score::gfx::Node, the score::gfx::RenderList creates a score::gfx::NodeRenderer which contains the actual GPU resource handles for the sink.

Given the following graph :

[ video ] -> [ shader 1 ] -> [ screen 1 ]
\
-> [ shader 2] -> [ Spout output ]

Two render lists are created, the first being

[ video ] -> [ shader 1 ] -> [ screen 1 ]

and the second being

[ video ] -> [ shader 1 ] -> [ shader 2] -> [ Spout output ]

Rendering for these two RenderList is entirely independent - they can render at different sizes and potentially use different graphic APIs, e.g. one OpenGL and the other Vulkan. This is also done to enable threaded rendering for each of these.

We provide the most essential nodes for building interesting visual effects:

  • A window output node (score::gfx::ScreenNode).
  • Shader filters using Interactive Shader Format (https://isf.video).
  • Video (score::gfx::VideoNode) and image (score::gfx::ImagesNode) renderers.
  • The video renderer tries to do as much of the decoding as possible on the GPU: for instance YUV420, HAP, ... are decoded on the GPU. Otherwises it falls back on libavcodec to guarantee compatibility with a wide range of video formats.

Other plug-ins may provide other useful things, such as NDI I/O or particle effects.

See GfxPlugins for information on how to create your custom nodes, visual effects and video decoders.
