chromakey_cuda - FFmpeg 7.1 / Filters / Video

CUDA accelerated YUV colorspace color/chroma keying.

This filter works like normal chromakey filter but operates on CUDA frames. for more details and parameters see chromakey.

Examples

Make all the green pixels in the input video transparent and use it as an overlay for another video:

./ffmpeg \
    -hwaccel cuda -hwaccel_output_format cuda -i input_green.mp4  \
    -hwaccel cuda -hwaccel_output_format cuda -i base_video.mp4 \
    -init_hw_device cuda \
    -filter_complex \
    " \
        [0:v]chromakey_cuda=0x25302D:0.1:0.12:1[overlay_video]; \
        [1:v]scale_cuda=format=yuv420p[base]; \
        [base][overlay_video]overlay_cuda" \
    -an -sn -c:v h264_nvenc -cq 20 output.mp4

Process two software sources, explicitly uploading the frames:

./ffmpeg -init_hw_device cuda=cuda -filter_hw_device cuda \
    -f lavfi -i color=size=800x600:color=white,format=yuv420p \
    -f lavfi -i yuvtestsrc=size=200x200,format=yuv420p \
    -filter_complex \
    " \
        [0]hwupload[under]; \
        [1]hwupload,chromakey_cuda=green:0.1:0.12[over]; \
        [under][over]overlay_cuda" \
    -c:v hevc_nvenc -cq 18 -preset slow output.mp4
