X264-视频压缩编码VCL
在前面的过程中，我们得到了编码图像，编码器开始H264视频编码VCL。首先初始化有关参数，包括帧类型的获取、创建多参考帧的列表、初始化码流控制、初始化写码流结构和写SPS、PPS头结构信息。
1.初始化相关参数
若为IDR帧，则意味着一个新图像片的开始。在H264中为了防止编码错误扩散，规定当前片不以本片以外的其他帧为参考，因而编码器遇到IDR帧则需要重置参考帧区域。同时，将SEI、SPS、PPS分别单独写入NAL单元。这三个参数集集合了编解码的核心参数，直接关系解码端能否正常解码。
若不是IDR帧，依据帧类型设定当前NAL单元的类型和图像片的类型。接着进行一系列初始化参数的操作，包括建立关于参考帧的list0和list1，初始化码流控制得到量化步长、参考帧等相关信息，初始化写比特流环境变量等。
在函数x264_lookahead_put_frame（）中，将fenc放入lookanead.next.list[]队列，再调用函数x264_lookahead_get_frame（）判断帧的类型。
x264_lookahead_get_frame（）：
//通过lookahead分析帧类型
void x264_lookahead_get_frames( x264_t *h )
{
if( h->param.i_sync_lookahead )
{ /* We have a lookahead thread, so get frames from there */
x264_pthread_mutex_lock( &h->lookahead->ofbuf.mutex );
while( !h->lookahead->ofbuf.i_size && h->lookahead->b_thread_active )
x264_pthread_cond_wait( &h->lookahead->ofbuf.cv_fill, &h->lookahead->ofbuf.mutex );
x264_lookahead_encoder_shift( h );
x264_pthread_mutex_unlock( &h->lookahead->ofbuf.mutex );
}
else
{ /* We are not running a lookahead thread, so perform all the slicetype decide on the fly */
//currect[]必须为空，next不能为空？

return;

x264_lookahead_update_last_nonb( h, h->lookahead->next.list[0] );
int shift_frames = h->lookahead->next.list[0]->i_bframes + 1;
//lookahead->next.list移动到lookahead->ofbuf.list
x264_lookahead_shift( &h->lookahead->ofbuf, &h->lookahead->next, shift_frames );
/* For MB-tree and VBV lookahead, we have to perform propagation analysis on I-frames too. */

x264_slice_write（）函数的具体流程：
首先，调用x264_nal_start（）开始输出一个NALU；
接着，x264_macroblock_thread_init（）函数初始化宏块重建像素缓存fdec_buf[]和编码像素缓存fenc_buf[]。
接着调用x264_slice_header_write（）输出Slice Header。
进入一个循环，该循环每执行一次编码一个宏块。
（a）调用x264_fdec_filter_row（）执行滤波模块；
（b）调用x264_macroblock_cache_load_progressive（）将要编码的宏块的周围宏块的信息读进来。
（c）调用x264_macroblock_analyse（）执行分析模块。
（d）调用x264_macroblock_encode（）执行宏块编码信息。
（e）调用x264_macroblock_write_cabac（）/x264_macroblock_write_cavlc（）执行熵编码模块。
（f）调用x264_macroblock_cache_save（）保存当前宏块的信息。
（g）调用x264_ratecontrol_mb（）执行码率控制。
（h）准备处理下一个宏块。
最后调用x264_nal_end（）结束输出一个NALU。
关山难越，谁悲失路之人；
萍水相逢，尽是他乡之客。
