Encoding Spatial Video

As I mentioned in my prior post about Spatial Video, the launch of the Apple Vision Pro has reignited interest in spatial and immersive video formats, and it's exciting to hear from users who are experiencing this format for the first time. The release of my spatial video command-line tool and example spatial video player has inadvertently pulled me into a lot of fun discussions, and I've really enjoyed chatting with studios, content producers, camera manufacturers, streaming providers, enthusiasts, software developers, and even casual users. Many have shared test footage, and I've been impressed by a lot of what I've seen. In these interactions, I'm often asked about encoding options, playback, and streaming, and this post will focus on encoding.

To start, I'm not an Apple employee, and other than my time working at an immersive video startup (Pixvana, 2016-2020), I don't have any secret or behind-the-scenes knowledge. Everything I've written here is based on my own research and experimentation. That means that some of this will be incorrect, and it's likely that things will change, perhaps as early as WWDC24 in June (crossing my fingers). With that out of the way, let's get going.

Encoding

Apple's spatial and immersive videos are encoded using a multi-view extension of HEVC referred to as MV-HEVC (found in Annex G of the latest specification). While this format and extension were defined as a standard many years ago, as far as I can tell, MV-HEVC has not been used in practice. Because of this, there are very few encoders that support this format. As of this writing, these are the encoders that I'm aware of:

spatial - my own command-line tool for encoding MV-HEVC on an Apple silicon Mac

Spatialify - an iPhone/iPad app

SpatialGen - an online encoding solution

QooCam EGO spatial video and photo converter - for users of this Kandao camera

Dolby/Hybrik - professional online encoding

Ateme TITAN - professional encoding (note the upcoming April 16, 2024 panel discussion at NAB)

SpatialMediaKit - an open source GitHub project for Mac

MV-HEVC reference software - complex reference software mostly intended for conformance testing

Like my own spatial tool, many of these encoders rely on the MV-HEVC support that has been added to Apple's AVFoundation framework. As such, you can expect them to behave in similar ways. I'm not as familiar with the professional solutions that are provided by Dolby/Hyrbik and Ateme, so I can't say much about them. Finally, the MV-HEVC reference software was put together by the standards committee, and while it is an invaluable tool for testing conformance, it was never intended to be a commercial tool, and it is extremely slow. Also, the reference software was completed well before Apple defined its vexu metadata, so that would have to be added manually (my spatial tool can do this).

Layers

As I mentioned earlier, MV-HEVC is an extension to HEVC, and the multi-view nature of that extension is intended to encode multiple views of the same content all within a single bitstream. One use might be to enable multiple camera angles of an event – like a football game – to be carried in a single stream, perhaps allowing a user to switch between them. Another use might be to encode left- and right-eye views to be played back stereoscopically (in 3D).

To carry multiple views, MV-HEVC assigns each view a different layer ID. In a normal HEVC stream, there is only one so-called primary layer that is assigned an ID of 0. When you watch standard 2D HEVC-encoded media, you're watching the only/primary layer 0 content. With Apple's spatial and immersive MV-HEVC content, a second layer (typically ID 1) is also encoded, and it represents a second view of the same content. Note that while it's common for layer 0 to represent a left-eye view, this is not a requirement.

One benefit of this scheme is that you can playback MV-HEVC content on a standard 2D player, and it will only playback the primary layer 0 content, effectively ignoring anything else. But, when played back on a MV-HEVC-aware player, each layered view can be presented to the appropriate eye. This is why my spatial tool allows you to choose which eye's view is stored in the primary layer 0 for 2D-only players. Sometimes (like on iPhone 15 Pro), one camera's view looks better than the other.

All video encoders take advantage of the fact that the current video frame looks an awful lot like the prior video frame. Which looks a lot like the one before that. Most of the bandwidth savings depends on this fact. This is called temporal (changes over time) or inter-view (where a view in this sense is just another image frame) compression. As an aside, if you're more than casually interested in how this works, I highly recommend this excellent digital video introduction. But even if you don't read that article, a lot of the data in compressed video consists of one frame referencing part of another frame (or frames) along with motion vectors that describe which direction and distance an image chunk has moved.

Now, what happens when we introduce the second layer (the other eye's view) in MV-HEVC-encoded video? Well, in addition to a new set of frames that is tagged as layer 1, these layer 1 frames can also reference frames that are in layer 0. And because stereoscopic frames are remarkably similar – after all, the two captures are typically 65mm or less apart – there is a lot of efficiency when storing the layer 1 data: "looks almost exactly the same as layer 0, with these minor changes…" It isn't unreasonable to expect 50% or more savings in that second layer.

This diagram shows a set of frames encoded in MV-HEVC. Perhaps confusing at first glance, the arrows show the flow of referenced image data. Notice that layer 0 does not depend on anything in layer 1, making this primary layer playable on standard 2D HEVC video players. Layer 1, however, relies on data from layer 0 and from other adjacent layer 1 frames.

Thanks to Fraunhofer for the structure of this diagram.

Mystery

I am very familiar with MV-HEVC output that is recorded by Apple Vision Pro and iPhone 15 Pro, and it's safe to assume that these are being encoded with AVFoundation. I'm also familiar with the output of my own spatial tool and a few of the others that I mentioned above, and they too use AVFoundation. However, the streams that Apple is using for its immersive content appear to be encoded by something else. Or at least a very different (future?) version of AVFoundation. Perhaps another WWDC24 announcement?

By monitoring the network, I've already learned that Apple's immersive content is encoded in 10-bit HDR, 4320x4320 per-eye resolution, at 90 frames-per-second. Their best streaming version is around 50Mbps, and the format of the frame is (their version of) fisheye. While they've exposed a fisheye enumeration in Core Media and their files are tagged as such, they haven't shared the details of this projection type. Because they've chosen it as the projection type for their excellent Apple TV immersive content, though, it'll be interesting to hear more when they're ready to share.

So, why do I suspect that they're encoding their video with a different MV-HEVC tool? First, where I'd expect to see a FourCC codec type of hvc1 (as noted in the current Apple documentation), in some instances, I've also seen a qhvc codec type. I've never encountered that HEVC codec type, and as far as I know, AVFoundation currently tags all MV-HEVC content with hvc1. At least that's been my experience. If anyone has more information about qhvc, drop me a line.

Next, as I explained in the prior section, the second layer in MV-HEVC-encoded files is expected to achieve a bitrate savings of around 50% or more by referencing the nearly-identical frame data in layer 0. But, when I compare files that have been encoded by Apple Vision Pro, iPhone 15 Pro, and the current version of AVFoundation (including my spatial tool), both layers are nearly identical in size. On the other hand, Apple's immersive content is clearly using a more advanced encoder, and the second layer is only ~45% of the primary layer…just what you'd expect.

Here is a diagram that shows three subsections of three different MV-HEVC videos, each showing a layer 0 (blue), then layer 1 (green) cadence of frames. The height of each bar represents the size of that frame's payload. Because the content of each video is different, this chart is only useful to illustrate the payload difference between layers.

As we've learned, for a mature encoder, we'd expect the green bars to be noticeably smaller than the blue bars. For Apple Vision Pro and spatial tool encodings (both using the current version of AVFoundation), the bars are often similar, and in some cases, the green bars are even higher than their blue counterparts. In contrast, look closely at the Apple Immersive data; the green layer 1 frame payload is always smaller.

Immaturity

What does this mean? Well, it means that Apple's optimized 50Mbps stream might need closer to 70Mbps using the existing AVFoundation-based tools to achieve a similar quality. My guess is that the MV-HEVC encoder in AVFoundation is essentially encoding two separate HEVC streams, then "stitching" them together (by updating layer IDs and inter-frame references), almost as-if they're completely independent of each other. That would explain the remarkable size similarity between the two layers, and as an initial release, this seems like a reasonable engineering simplification. It also aligns with Apple's statement that one minute of spatial video from iPhone 15 Pro is approximately 130MB while one minute of regular video is 65MB…exactly half.

Another possibility is that it's too computationally expensive to encode inter-layer references while capturing two live camera feeds in Vision Pro or iPhone 15 Pro. This makes a lot of sense, but I'd then expect a non-real-time source to produce a more efficient bitstream, and that's not what I'm seeing.

For what it's worth, I spent a bit of time trying to validate a lack of inter-layer references, but as mentioned, there are no readily-available tools that process MV-HEVC at this deeper level (even the reference decoder was having its issues). I started to modify some existing tools (and even wrote my own), but after a bunch of work, I was still too far away from an answer. So, I'll leave it as a problem for another day.

To further improve compression efficiency, I tried to add AVFoundation's multi-pass encoding to my spatial tool. Sadly, after many attempts and an unanswered post to the Apple Developer Forums, I haven't had any luck. It appears that the current MV-HEVC encoder doesn't support multi-pass encoding. Or if it does, I haven't found the magical incantation to get it working properly.

Finally, I tried adding more data rate options to my spatial tool. The tool can currently target a quality level or an average bitrate, but it really needs finer control for better HLS streaming support. Unfortunately, I couldn't get the data rate limits feature to work either. Again, I'm either doing something wrong, or the current encoder doesn't yet support all of these features.

Closing Thoughts

I've been exploring MV-HEVC in depth since the beginning of the year. I continue to think that it's a great format for immersive media, but it's clear that the current state of encoders (at least those that I've encountered) are in their infancy. Because the multi-view extensions for HEVC have never really been used in the past, HEVC encoders have reached a mature state without multi-view support. It will now take some effort to revisit these codebases to add support for things like multiple input streams, the introduction of additional layers, and features like rate control.

While we wait for answers at WWDC24, we're in an awkward transition period where the tools we have to encode media will require higher bitrates and offer less control over bitstreams. We can encode rectilinear media for playback in the Files and Photos apps on Vision Pro, but Apple has provided no native player support for these more immersive formats (though you can use my example spatial player). Fortunately, Apple's HLS toolset has been updated to handle spatial and immersive media. I had intended to write about streaming MV-HEVC in this post, but it's already long enough, so I'll save that topic for another time.

As always, I hope this information is useful, and if you have any comments, feedback, suggestions, or if you just want to share some media, feel free to contact me.

In iOS 18 Apple adds a feature most requested by iPhone videographers | Technology News

Apple iPhones are praised across the world for their videography prowess, and with the iPhone 16 Pro series, the company is taking it to the next level by introducing 4K 120fps Dolby Vision-format video recording capability. But, this story is not about that. This is about a new feature Apple has added, one that makes the life of all iPhone videographers easier – the ability to pause while recording video on an iPhone. While the first iPhone could only take photos, Apple added the ability to record videos on the iPhone 3GS in 2009. However, unlike most Android smartphones, iPhone users, using the native camera app, could only continuously record video with no ability to pause the recording and resume it later. In the latest iOS 18 beta build, Apple is finally adding a new option to the camera app, which will give users the freedom to pause multiple times while shooting a video and still have one single footage. This feature was first spotted by 9to5Mac on the iOS 18 Release Candidate beta, which is considered as good as the stable release. This feature is available on all iPhones eligible for the iOS 18 update, releasing on September 16, and the latest iPhone 16 series will be the first set of iPhones to ship with this capability. They are also the first set of iPhones to include a dedicated “Camera Control” button, which offers DSLR-like camera control capability on the iPhone 16 and the iPhone 16 Pro series.   Source link via The Novum Times

A user enters their initial email copy on iPhone 16 Pro before using Apple Intelligence-powered writing tools to make it more professional.

Users can prioritize with summary notifications and Priority communications in Mail, which recognizes email content and highlights time-sensitive communications. Summaries tell users the most significant parts of each email instead than previewing the first few paragraphs.

Siri becomes more integrated into the system and gets a new design with a beautiful shining light that wraps around the screen when engaged. Siri’s language understanding makes communication more natural and adaptable. Siri remembers context and follows users’ stutters. Users can type to Siri at any moment and switch between text and speech to speed up daily tasks. Siri now answers thousands of iPhone and Apple device feature questions with her product knowledge.Image credit to Apple

Later this year and in the months ahead, Apple Intelligence will release Image Playground, which lets people create entertaining photos quickly. The option to create unique Genmoji by entering a description or using a friend’s or family member’s photo will elevate emoji. Siri will exploit a user’s context to provide personalized intelligence. It will also develop onscreen awareness to interpret and act on users’ content and conduct hundreds of additional actions in Apple and third-party apps. Siri and Writing Tools in iOS 18 make ChatGPT from OpenAI easy to access.

iPhone 16 Pro Max camera

Through careful hardware and software integration, Camera Control makes the pro camera system more versatile by allowing users to rapidly launch, take a photo, and start video recording. It contains a tactile switch for clicks, a high-precision force sensor for light presses, and a capacitive sensor for touch. A new camera preview allows users frame the image and change zoom, exposure, and depth of focus to create spectacular photos and videos simply sliding their finger on the Camera Control.

A two-stage shutter will instantly lock focus and exposure on a subject with a light press in Camera Control later this fall, allowing users to adjust the photo without losing focus. Developers can also add Camera Control to third-party apps like Kino, allowing users to alter white balance and focus points at different depths.

Later this year, Camera Control will release visual intelligence to speed up object and place learning. Click and hold Camera Control to display a restaurant’s hours or reviews, add a flyer event to a calendar, instantly identify a dog by breed, and more. Camera Control will also allow users to access third-party tools with subject expertise, such as Google to find a product or ChatGPT to solve an issue. Users decide when to use third-party products and share data.

New Pro Photo, Video, and Audio Creativity

The world’s favorite camera grows stronger with iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. The upgraded camera system, powered by A18 Pro, features a 48MP Fusion camera with a faster, more efficient quad-pixel sensor and Apple Camera Interface, enabling 4K120 fps Dolby Vision video recording, a smartphone first. The quad-pixel sensor reads data 2x faster, enabling zero shutter lag for 48MP ProRAW or HEIF photographs.

A new 48MP Ultra Wide camera with a quad-pixel sensor and autofocus lets users snap higher-resolution 48MP ProRAW and HEIF photos for distinctively framed wide-angle photographs or macro photography. The powerful 5x Telephoto camera on the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max lets users capture action from farther away.

After capturing 4K120 fps in Slo-mo or Video mode, users can set the playback speed in the Photos app to quarter-speed, half-speed for a dreamlike effect, or fifth-speed for 24 fps. A18 Pro’s new image signal processor (ISP) allows frame-by-frame cinema-quality color grading for 4K120 fps in Dolby Vision. For professional projects, users can capture 4K120 fps ProRes and Log to an external storage device.

Both Pro models have four new studio-quality mics for accurate sound recordings, and Spatial Audio can capture video for immersive listening with AirPods, Apple Vision Pro, or a surround sound system. Audio Mix on the iPhone 16 Pro lineup lets users edit video sound after capture to focus on the person on camera, make it sound like it was recorded in a professional studio, or position vocal tracks in the front and environmental noises in surround sound. Wind noise reduction improves audio quality with advanced machine learning (ML) methods.

Next-generation Photographic Styles allow real-time color, highlight, and shadow adjustments to express creativity and customize photographs. Styles comprehend skin undertones, so users can customize photo appearance. Adjustments target certain colors of a style, unlike filters, which add a color to the entire scene. A wider variety of styles allows for more creative photo editing, and an easy-to-use new control pad and intensity slider allow simultaneous tone and color alterations. These changes can be made during live preview, after a shot is taken, or reversed.

Apple Intelligence elevates pro cameras. Siri will later be able to execute in-app requests and operate across apps, such as selecting a photo from Photos and editing it in Darkroom. Siri can help customers use the wide range of photo and editing features, such as adjusting background blur.

Power Efficiency and Performance Lead the Industry

The A18 Pro CPU powers Apple Intelligence with industry-leading computational capability, ushering in a new age of pro performance. A18 Pro’s second-generation 3-nanometer technology and redesigned architecture with smaller, quicker transistors enable exceptional efficiency. Apple Intelligence performs better on devices thanks to the quicker, more efficient 16-core Neural Engine. A 17% boost in total system memory bandwidth the biggest ever in iPhone speeds up Writing Tools and Image Playground and delivers stunning graphics. Due to the bandwidth boost, the 6-core GPU is 20% quicker than the previous generation, producing graphics for Apple Intelligence and amazing gaming graphics.

Game Mode in iOS 18 unlocks more constant frame rates and makes AirPods, game controllers, and other wireless peripherals responsive. Hardware-accelerated ray tracing speeds up light sources and reflections by 2x. A smartphone’s fastest 6-core CPU has two performance cores and four efficiency cores to handle the same job 15% faster and 20% less power. Next-generation ML accelerators optimize for Apple Intelligence and save power by performing high-efficiency, high-throughput, and low-latency CPU computations without using the Neural Engine.

For better iPhone viewing, A18 Pro supports Always-On, ProMotion, quicker USB 3, and ProRes video recording. A new ISP and video encoder process 2x more data for faster encoding and pro workflows.

Enhanced Safety and Communication

For peace of mind, the iPhone 16 Pro series offers new connectivity and safety features. In iOS 18, users may send and receive texts, emoji, and Tapbacks over iMessage and SMS when outside cellular and Wi-Fi service using the same breakthrough satellite technology as Emergency SOS. Satellite messages are end-to-end secured. With iOS 18, Emergency SOS Live Video lets users share a live video feed or photos with emergency dispatchers during an emergency call. Later this fall, Roadside Assistance via satellite expands from the U.S. to the U.K.

Better for Nature

The iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max are eco-friendly. Apple 2030, the company’s ambitious goal to be carbon neutral across its entire carbon footprint by the end of the decade, prioritizes renewable electricity in manufacturing and invests in wind and solar projects worldwide to charge all Apple products, including the iPhone 16 lineup. All Apple facilities, including Apple Intelligence data centers, use 100% renewable electricity.

Apple is designing devices with recycled and renewable materials for 2030. iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max have over 25% recycled content, including 100% recycled aluminum in the internal structural frame and 80 percent or more recycled steel across several components. The iPhone 16 Pro series satisfies Apple’s energy efficiency standards and is mercury- and PVC-free. The battery is created with 100% recycled cobalt and over 95% recycled lithium, a first for iPhone. The fiber-based packaging helps Apple reach its aim of eliminating plastic packaging by next year.

iPhone 16 Pro price

iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will come in black, natural, white, and desert titanium with 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB storage. iPhone 16 Pro starts at $999 or $41.62 a month, and iPhone 16 Pro Max at $1,199 or $49.95..

Apple provides fantastic iPhone upgrades and savings. Trading in an iPhone 12 or higher earns customers $180 to $650 in credit, or up to $1,000 in credits for an iPhone 16 Pro with a carrier offer. Customers can take advantage of these offers by visiting the Apple Store online.
