这个GPU视频转码项目可行吗?
最近,一位想要使用 GPU 进行视频转码的人联系了我。 他基本上希望我为他创建一个应用程序,他可以出售该应用程序或从广告中获得收入。
现在他基本上已经让我告诉我用5000美元的薪水能取得什么成就。 现在,我是一名研究生,并获得了基于使用 GPU 的进化算法的期末论文的奖项。 所以我了解GPGPU编程(这就是我们首先接触的原因),但我对视频压缩和转码等方面没有任何深入的了解。
所以我有点不知所措,我想要这个项目,但我不想卖空自己,也不想承诺无法实现的事情。 考虑到他想要一个与竞争对手(badaboom、avivo)类似的产品,而且我想他们的团队比我对这个主题有更多的了解,我有点担心。
所以我想我的问题是,如果你处于我的情况,你会如何回应?对于像我这样有能力但不是该领域专家的人来说,你认为一个项目(编写基于 GPU 的视频转码器)有多困难?
预先感谢
。 他希望它是跨平台的
Recently I was approached by a guy who wants to do video transcoding using the GPU. He basically wants me to create him an application that he can sell or gain revenue from advertising.
Now he has basically asked me to tell me what I can achieve with 5000 US dollars of pay. Now, I am a graduate student and won an award for my final thesis which was based on evolutionary algorithms using the GPU. So I know about GPGPU progrmaming (which is why we got in contact in the first place), but I haven't got any indepth knowledge of video compression and transcoding and the like.
So I'm at a bit of a loss, I would like the project but I don't want to sell myself short and I don't want to promise the unachievable. Considering he wants a product similar to the competition (badaboom, avivo) and I imagine they are teams of people with much more knowledge about the topic than I, I am somewhat concerned.
So I guess my question is how would you respond if you were in my situation, and how difficult do you think a project (writing a GPU-based video transcoder) would be for an able but not expert in this field person like me?
Thanks in advance
p.s. he wants it to be cross-platform

你似乎低估了自己。 我猜美国 GPGPU 编程专家的工资应该在 100 美元/小时左右,甚至更多。 这需要 50 小时或大约 6 个工作日,包括测试、调试和其他您需要做的事情。 即使您的费率较低,这也是非常短的时间。
You seem to be underselling yourself. I guess the rate for a GPGPU programming expert in the US should be around $100/hr, if not more. That's 50 hours or roughly 6 working days, including testing, debugging and whatever else you need to do. That's an awful short amount of time, even if your rate is less.
AMD 提供了一个基于 GPU 的转码器,可以免费下载。 他们称之为 AVIVO。
如果好的产品可以免费下载,那么您的客户将在销售产品时遇到困难,因此请务必提前获得付款。
AMD provides a gpu-based transcoder that's a free download. They call it AVIVO.
If good products are available as free downloads, your client will have trouble selling a product, so be sure and get paid in advance.
