DirectX Screen Capture - Desktop Duplication API - limited frame rate of AcquireNextFrame

问题


I'm trying to use Windows Desktop Duplication API to capture the screen and save the raw output to a video. I'm using AcquireNextFrame with a very high timeout value (999ms). This way I should get every new frame from windows as soon as it at has one, which naturally should be at 60fps anyway. I end up getting sequences where everything looks good (frame 6-11), and then sequences where things look bad (frame 12-14). If I check AccumulatedFrames

lFrameInfo.AccumulatedFrames

the value is often 2 or higher. From my understanding, this means windows is saying "hey hold up, I don't have a frame for you yet", because calls to AcquireNextFrame take so long. But once windows does finally give me a frame, it is saying "hey you were actually too slow and ended up missing a frame". If i could somehow get these frames I think I would be getting 60hz.

This can be further clarified with logging:

Frame 6-11 look good, the acquires are roughly 17ms apart. Frame 12 should be acquired at (300+17=317ms). Frame 12 starts waiting at 308, but doesn't get anything until 336ms. Windows didn't have anything for me until the frame after (300+17+17~=336ms). Okay sure maybe windows just missed a frame, but when I finally get it, I can check AccumulatedFrames and its value was 2 (meaning I missed a frame because I waited too long before calling AcquireNextFrame). In my understanding, it only makes sense for AccumulatedFrames to be larger than 1 if AcquireNextFrame returns immediately.

Furthermore, I can use PresentMon while my capture software is running. The logs show MsBetweenDisplayChange for every frame, which is fairly steady at 16.666ms (with a couple outliers, but much less than my capture software is seeing).

These people (1, 2) seem to have been able to get 60fps, so I'm wondering what I am doing incorrectly.

My code is based on this:

int main() {
    int FPS = 60;
    int video_length_sec = 5;

    int total_frames = FPS * video_length_sec;
    for (int i = 0; i < total_frames; i++) {
        if(!CaptureSingleFrame()){
            i--;
        }
    }
}

**EDIT - According to my measurements, you must call AcquireNextFrame() before the frame will actually appear by about ~10ms, or windows will fail to acquire it and get you the next one. Every time my recording program takes more than 7 ms to wrap around (after acquiring frame i until calling AcquireNextFrame() on i+1), frame i+1 is missed.

***EDIT - Heres a screenshot of GPU View showing what I'm talking about. The first 6 frames process in no time, then the 7th frame takes 119ms. The long rectangle beside "capture_to_argb.exe" corresponds to me being stuck inside AcquireNextFrame(). If you look up to the hardware queue, you can see it cleanly rendering at 60fps, even while I'm stuck in AcquireNextFrame(). At least this is my interpretation (I have no idea what I'm doing).


回答1:


"Current Display Mode: 3840 x 2160 (32 bit) (60hz)" refers to display refresh rate, that is how many frames can be passed to display per second. However the rate at which new frames are rendered is typically much lower. You can inspect this rate using PresentMon or similar utilities. When I don't move the mouse it reports me something like this:

As you can see when nothing happens Windows presents new frame only twice per second or even slower. However this is typically really good for video encoding because even if you are recording video at 60 fps and AcquireNextFrame reports that no new frame is available then it means that current frame is exactly the same as previous.




回答2:


Doing a blocking wait before next call of AcquireNextFrame you are missing the actual frames. Desktop Duplication API logic suggests that you attempt to acquire next frame immediately if you expect a decent frame rate. Your sleeping call effectively relinquishes the available remainder of execution timeout without hard promise that you get a new slice in scheduled interval of time.

You have to poll at maximal frame rate. Do not sleep (even with zero sleep time) and request next frame immediately. You will have the option to drop the frames that come too early. Desktop Duplication API is designed in a way that getting extra frames might be not too expensive of you identify them early and stop their processing.

If you still prefer to sleep between the frames, you might want to read the accuracy remark:

To increase the accuracy of the sleep interval, call the timeGetDevCaps function to determine the supported minimum timer resolution and the timeBeginPeriod function to set the timer resolution to its minimum. Use caution when calling timeBeginPeriod, as frequent calls can significantly affect the system clock, system power usage, and the scheduler. If you call timeBeginPeriod, call it one time early in the application and be sure to call the timeEndPeriod function at the very end of the application.




回答3:


As others have mentioned, the 60Hz refresh rate only indicates the frequency with which the display may change. It doesn't actually mean that it will change that frequently. AcquireNextFrame will only return a frame when what is being displayed on the duplicated output has changed.

My recommendation is to ...

  1. Create a Timer Queue timer with the desired video frame interval
  2. Create a compatible resource in which to buffer the desktop bitmap
  3. When the timer goes off, call AcquireNextFrame with a zero timeout
  4. If there has been a change, copy the returned resource to your buffer and release it
  5. Send the buffered frame to the encoder or whatever further processing

This will yield a sequence of frames at the desired rate. If the display hasn't changed, you'll have a copy of the previous frame to use to maintain your frame rate.
