“Video? That’s just like photos!”
-Me, before Flickr Video

Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 11
12 4 Steps
• 4 main tasks– Uploading– Transcoding– Storage– Serving & Playback
![Page 12: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

1.
Upload
![Page 13: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 13
Simple upload
• Web forms– Just like any other file
<form action="/uploadify/" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="fred" /> <input type="submit" value="Go!" />
</form>
• But files are large / huge
![Page 14: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 14
Issues
• Two components for uploading:– Sending from the client– Receiving on the server
• Both of these present problems
![Page 15: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 15
Sending from the client
• Multiple options– Simple form– Flash– Desktop app
![Page 16: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 16
Simple Forms
• Pros– Very easy to implement– Works on every browser out of the box
• Cons– Upload progress is harder– ‘Slow’– Select a single file at once
![Page 17: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 17
Flash
• Pros– Upload progress is easy– ‘Fast’– Multi select of files
• Cons– Harder to implement– Flash isn’t quite ubiquitous
![Page 18: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 18
Desktop App
• Pros– Upload progress is easy– ‘Very fast’– Multi select of files– Drag and drop
• Cons– Hard to develop– Hard to deploy (relative to the web)
![Page 19: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 19
Making Progress
• Upload progress– Not impossible with plain forms– Just need to be able to query the upload
progress via AJAX
• Multiple machines– The VIP issue– Enter Perlbal
![Page 20: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Browser
Web 1
Web 2
1. Browser starts upload
2. Web server broadcastsprogress via UDP
3. Browser queries progressvia AJX call
Loadbalancer
![Page 21: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 21
Receiving on the server
• File uploads are slow– Much slower than serving pages
• Apache processes are heavy– Waste of resources
• Use a poll based server (like jetty)
![Page 22: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 22
Receiving on the server
• Or, use a buffering layer– Perlbal is great for this
• Or a lightweight Apache– E.g. w/ mod_proxy
Browser Buffer Server
Slow Fast
![Page 23: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 23
But wait
• It’s not just the first step that’s slow
• Moving files around between servers is slow– Do it out of band
• Asynchronous jobs are in order anyway– Do it!
![Page 24: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

2.
Transcode
![Page 25: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 25
Transcode?
• Why transcode at all?
• Input comes from many sources– Point & shoots– DV Cams– Mobile devices– Video editing software
• All in different formats
![Page 26: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 26
So many formats
• But very few of these formats can be played back cross platform– Without special software or hardware
• Formats are designed to do one thing well– They don’t always manage even that
• Transcoding puts all videos on an equal footing
![Page 27: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 27
Video file basics
• Most file types are really just containers– MOV, FLV, AVI
• The data inside can be in multiple formats– We call these codecs (encoder + decoder)
• Files contains multiple ‘streams’– Both audio and video
![Page 28: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 28
Interleave
• Audio and video are often interleaved– Hence AVI
• A video file looks like this:– Headers– Video chunk– Audio chunk– Video chunk– Audio chunk– Etc
![Page 29: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 29
Compress
• Raw video files are huge– A bitmap for every frame– Rarely used, even in post production
• At 30 fps, that gets crazy pretty quickly
• We don’t need to store every frame– Static backgrounds don’t change (much)
between frames
![Page 30: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 30
Compresssss
• Intraframe– Treat each frame as a picture– Compress it (just like JPEG)– DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform)
• Interframe– Store the differences between frames– Treat the pixels as a 3D array to be
compressed
![Page 31: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 31
The IPB
• Three frame types: I, P & B
• Intra coded pictures– A full raw frame
• Predicted pictures– Based on a single reference frame
• Bi-predictive pictures– Based on two or more reference frames
![Page 32: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 32
IPBIPBIPBIPB
• Reference frames may be I, P or B
• P & B frames may contain a mix of image data and motion vector displacements
• I frames require the most bits– Then P frames– Then B frames
![Page 33: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 33
Bad terminology
• We should really say picture– (Not frame)– Because of interlacing
• Really, we encode fields not frames– Picture is the general term
• And H.264 contains ‘slices’– Sub-regions of the field– ‘Macroblocks’ & ‘Artifacts’
![Page 34: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 34
I-Frames
• Also called Key Frames
• Allow easy random seeking
• Twice a second for Digital TV & DVDs
• More widely spaced online
![Page 35: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 37
Oh, and audio too
• We can worry less about this– Older problem, well solved
• MP3 is pretty good– Who cares how it works?
• Syncing is the only issue– Presentation Time Stamps (PTS) and Decode
Time Stamps (DTS) in MPEG-2
![Page 38: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

The big question:
Flash?
![Page 39: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 39
Non-flash sites
• QuickTime• Windows Media• This is gradually disappearing
• Flash player is ubiquitous• Compression is good enough• Interactive too
• But no 3D/VR as with QuickTime :(
![Page 40: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 40
The Flash Player
• Flash Player 6– March 2002
• Video: Sorenson Spark (H.263)
• Audio: MP3– Or ADPCM / Uncompressed– Or Nellymoser Asao
![Page 41: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 41
Second Generation
• Flash Player 7– August 2005
• Video: On2 TrueMotion VP6
• Audio: MP3
![Page 42: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 42
The hot shit
• Flash Player 9 (update 3)– December 2007
• Video: H.264 (MPEG-4 Part 10)– w/ container formats from MPEG-4 Part 14
• Audio: AAC (MPEG-4 Part 3)
• Plus 3GPP Timed Text (MPEG-4 Part 17)
![Page 43: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 43
TrueMotion VP6
• Proprietary
• Reasonable compression
• Created by On2– Patented– Probably illegal for GPL code
• YouTube uses it for lower quality and old streams
![Page 44: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 44
H.264
• Not proprietary• Good compression• MPEG Standard
– Open, but patented– Patent licenses from the MPEG LA– Unclear how this applies to (L)GPL code– But probably badly
• YouTube using it for higher quality streams
• iPhones and AppleTV
![Page 45: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 45
Software
• Open source transcode tools
• FFmepg– libavcodec for VP6– Probably illegal – dubious– Also pretty shoddy– Can only decode H.264
![Page 46: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 46
More software
• MEncoder– libmpcodecs uses libavcodec
• VLC– libvlc uses libavcodec
• So basically the same– Different muxing, same codecs
![Page 47: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 47
Free H.264?
• Unfortunately, not really
• x264 is the only usable one– It’s pretty good– MEncoder can use it– Still limited in options at this point– Again, dubiously legal
![Page 48: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Web 2.0 Expo NYC, 17th September 2008 48
Non-free tools
• Flash encoder– Not automatable
• On2 FlixEngine– Creators of VP6– Windows or Linux– Some support for H.264
• Rhozet Carbon Coder– The new hot shit– Good H.264 support– Windows
![Page 49: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)

Choices
• Video codec
• Resolution
• Bitrate (VBR, CBR)
• Keyframes
• Audio codec– Channels– Bit depth– Sampling rate
![Page 50: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

Doing it at scale
• Not really a problem
• Very easily parallelizable
• Amazon EC2 is awesome here– Exactly what it was design for– Grow/shrink as needed– But, per-CPU software licensing

Easy!
• Really, just like photos– But with bigger files
• Same disk layout as any other serving
• But the serving part is slower
![Page 53: Moving Pictures Implementing Video on Flickr Cal Henderson](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/55199d8255034648068b4a89/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

But..
• Remember the files are huge
• Operations take time– More likely to fail halfway through– Checksums are your friend
• Do it all asynchronously

Summing up
• Flash makes sense– For uploading too
• H.264 is probably your best bet today
• Transcoding software still costs money– Unless you’re willing to take on the risk
• Progressive download is basically awesome
