Using the Fps.exe utility

To check productivity of video processing, do the following:

1. Start the fps.exe utility (see Starting and shutting-down the Fps.exe utility).

2. To set the file of video fragment click  button in the field Images storage folder and in the Open  standard Windows dialog window, that will open,  select with a double mouse click the required file (1).

   Note.

   To emulation the pattern set of framen, the field Video Source File is not entered.

   

3. Activate Compression check checkbox to check how many fps  the given computer can compress (2).
4. Activate Decompression check checkbox to check how many fps  the given computer can decompress(3).
5. Select thr requiret compressor version from the dropdown list Codec (4).

6. Enter the required number of emulated cameras in the field Channels amount (5).

   Note.

   This setting is actual only with emulation of pattern set of channels.

7. In the Number of CPU cores in use field specify the number of CPU cores to be used for performance check (6).

8. Select the required value of frames compression from the dropdown list Quality (inversely to compression level) (7).
9. When necessary set the directory, where frames extracted from the video would be decompressed  with the help of button  of the field Jpeg images storage folder (8).
10. To start video processing tester click Start button (9).

11. As the result parameters of video processing productivity will be displayed in the title bar of the utility window (10).

    Productivity parameter	Description of parameter
    Compression	total number of frames that can be compressed in one second
    Decompression	total number of frames that can be decompressed in one second
    Ratio	compression ratio
    Version	selected version of the compressor
    Width	frame width
    Height	frame height
    Color	if the frame is in color
    CPU	number of CPU cores in use
    Compressors $ decompressors per thread	number of compressor instances per CPU

12. If step 8 is compeleted, the frames for testing video processing  will be recorded to thefiles  jpeg storage folder.
    
13. To stop the testing process, click the Stop button (11).

Testing productivity of video processing is completed.
