Just like MPEG-2 video uses VBV (Video Buffer Verifier), H.264 standard uses HRD (Hypothetical Reference Decoder) to define correctness of streams.

One of the verification provided by HRD is CPB buffer fullness. The idea is simple; feed H.264 stream to HRD and monitor the CPB fullness. Make sure the fullness never goes negative nor above the CPB buffer size. The importance of this buffer fullness requirement was explained here.

HRD defines the CPB fullness in somewhat counter intuitive way. To make it easy, I wrote an interactive HRD emulator in HTML5.

HRD Emulator (CBR)

The blue line the number of bits entered to HRD over time. The input rate is constant in CBR mode, i.e. the blue line is straight. The red line is the number of bits removed (= Decoded) from CPB. Thus, the CPB fullness is the blue line minus the red line for a given time.

Let’s select the VBR in Rate Control Mode.

HRD Emulator (VBR)

The blue line now has some periods where the input rate is zero. H.264 standard uses init_cpb_removal_delay to control the period; Bits for a picture N can enter HRD only after the picture decode time minus init_cpb_removal_delay.

To see this rule more clearly, check “Show init_cpb_removal_delay” option. When the last bit of picture N – 1 arrives before the picture N decoding time minus init_cpb_removal_delay, the input rate goes down to zero.

HRD (VBR) with init_cpb_removal_delay

The value of init_cpb_removal_delay also determines the initial decoding delay. It’s currently set to 50 ms. It means the first picture is decoded 50 ms after the first bit of the picture enters HRD.

The initial decoding delay determines the channel switching delay as discussed here. Can we reduce it to make channel switching faster?

HRD underflow due to the short initial delay

Not really. As shown above, reducing the value of init_cpb_removal_delay resulted in the underflow error (the red line crosses the blue line).

H.264 standard has introduced another parameter to allow the reduction of initial decoding delay at the expense of increased average bit rate. Here we have init_cpb_removal_delay_offset parameter. It’s added to init_cpb_removal_delay for every picture except the first one.

HRD with non-zero init_cpb_removal_delay_offset

H.264 HRD provides these parameters to encoders so that they can choose optimal bit stream configuration for each target devices.

Here are HTML and Java Script of the HRD emulator above.
