Abstract:
A video analyzer is a comprehensive bitstream analysis tool which accelerates development and debugging of video bitstreams while ensuring compliance with industry standards. There are many conventional analyzers present for different video standards like H.264, HEVC which are compliant only with the respective video sequence format. In this work, a generalized analyzer is proposed which is flexible enough to incorporate any video codec, as it is video syntax independent. It also integrates encoder which helps in the development and analysis of video encoder. In a case study, the analyzer is tested for VP9 bitstreams which is the latest video coding format.
