x264源码分析二：encode_frame函数和x264_encoder_encode函数

下面将开始分析x264编码的核心部分：x264_encoder_encode函数。 首先先看encode_frame函数：

static int encode_frame( x264_t *h, hnd_t hout, x264_picture_t *pic, int64_t *last_dts )
{
    x264_picture_t pic_out; //编码后的图片
    x264_nal_t *nal;
    int i_nal;
    int i_frame_size = 0; //帧的大小

    //将待编码的一帧图片作为参数传进去，进行编码，再将编码后的图片传回来
    i_frame_size = x264_encoder_encode( h, &nal, &i_nal, pic, &pic_out );

    FAIL_IF_ERROR( i_frame_size < 0, "x264_encoder_encode failed\n" );

    if( i_frame_size )
    {
        //将编码后的一帧图片输出
        i_frame_size = cli_output.write_frame( hout, nal[0].p_payload, i_frame_size, &pic_out );
        *last_dts = pic_out.i_dts; //跟新dts（编码顺序）
    }

    return i_frame_size;
}

下面将分析x264_encoder_encode函数：
