ST 2110 software toolkit

This toolkit aims at capturing, analysing and transcoding SMPTE ST 2110 streams.

Features:

  • capture RTP packets with high precision timestamps
  • transcode ST 2110 essences to h264
  • provide various pcap tools
  • provide a recipe to create a live version of EBU-LIST
  • troubleshoot the network by capturing traffic on remote hosts

Tested distros:

  • Centos 7
  • Dockerized Centos 7
  • Ubuntu > 20.04

Install

The repo contains multiple install sub-scripts, use the one in TOP DIRECTORY ONLY.

$ ./install.sh
Usage: ./install.sh <section>
sections are:
    * common:       compile tools, network utilities, config
    * ptp:          linuxptp
    * transcoder:   ffmpeg, x264, mp3 and other codecs
    * capture:      dpdk-based capture engine
    * ebulist:      EBU-LIST pcap analyzer, NOT tested for a while
    * nmos:         Sony nmos-cpp node and scripts for SDP patching

Regardless of your setup, please install 'common' section first.

Configuration

Both capture and transcoder scripts have default parameters but they can be overriden by a config file to be installed as /etc/st2110.conf. See the sample. This config also provisions an EBU-LIST server in live mode, i.e. connected to a ST 2110 network.

Capture

These instructions show how to setup a performant stream capture engine based on Nvidia/Mellanox NIC + DPDK.

rtcdump is standalone remote capture tool for generic network issue.

Transcode

It is required to go through the capture process before in order to validate all the underlying layers forwards a stream to an application. Then one can use our FFmpeg-based transcoder following these instructions.

EBU-LIST

Follow the integration guide for a complete capture and analysis solution.

NMOS

README shows a POC for a NMOSisfied transcoder. And various scripts are propose to get SDP file from source and patch them to destination.

Pcap tools

Pcap folder contains helper scripts which operate on PCAP files:

  • ancillary editor: insert different types of failure in SMPTE ST 291-1 payload
  • RTP pkt drop detector: count packets and drops for every (src/dst) IP pair found in a given pcap file
  • video yuv extractor: convert RFC4175 payload into raw YUV file
  • audio extractor: convert AES 67 payload into raw file

Dependencies:

TODO

  • test the RFC4175 encoder in ffmpeg
  • build a docker image for transcoder
  • test recent version of linux-ptp to validate that pmc no longer needs root permission
  • rework./capture/nic_setup.sh
  • nmos-poller: display ffmpeg status
