The canvas of an image is built from one or multiple tiles. Each tile

is a separately encoded VP8 key frame or a WebP lossless bitstream. Building

an image from several tiles allows the format to overcome the size limitations

of a single VP8 frame / WebP lossless bitstream. Tiles are an internal detail

### Assembling the Canvas from Tiles and Animation
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Here we provide an overview of how 'TILE' chunks and 'FRM '/'LOOP' chunks are
|
|
||||||
used to assemble the canvas. The notation _VP8X.field_ means the field in
|
|
||||||
the 'VP8X' chunk with the same description.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Decoding a _non-animated_ canvas MUST be equivalent to the following
|
|
||||||
pseudocode:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
||||||
assert not VP8X.flags.haveAnimation
|
|
||||||
canvas ← new black image of size
|
|
||||||
VP8X.canvasWidth x VP8X.canvasHeight.
|
|
||||||
tile_params.tileX = tile_params.tileY = 0
|
|
||||||
for chunk in data_for_all_frames:
|
|
||||||
if chunk.tag == "TILE":
|
|
||||||
assert No other TILE chunk after the last Bitstream chunk
|
|
||||||
assert No ALPH chunk after the last Bitstream chunk
|
|
||||||
tile_params = chunk
|
|
||||||
assert VP8X.canvasWidth >=
|
|
||||||
tile_params.tileX + tile_params.tileWidth
|
|
||||||
assert VP8X.canvasHeight >=
|
|
||||||
tile_params.tileY + tile_params.tileHeight
|
|
||||||
if chunk.tag == "ALPH":
|
|
||||||
assert No other ALPH chunk after the last Bitstream chunk
|
|
||||||
tile_params.alpha = alpha_data
|
|
||||||
if chunk.tag == "VP8 " OR chunk.tag == "VP8L":
|
|
||||||
render image in chunk on canvas with top-left corner in
|
|
||||||
(tile_params.tileX, tile_params.tileY).
|
|
||||||
Ignore unknown chunks
|
|
||||||
canvas contains the decoded canvas.
|
|
||||||

Decoding an _animated_ canvas MUST be equivalent to the following
|
|

pseudocode:

||||||

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|

assert VP8X.flags.haveAnimation
|

canvas ← new black image of size
|

VP8X.canvasWidth x VP8X.canvasHeight.
|
|
||||||
loop_count ← LOOP.loopCount
|
|
||||||
if loop_count == 0:
|
|
||||||
loop_count = ∞
|
|
||||||
frame_params ← nil
|
|
||||||
for LOOP.loop = 0, ..., LOOP.loopCount-1
|
|
||||||
assert First chunk in data_for_all_frames is FRM
|
|
||||||
for chunk in data_for_all_frames:
|
|
||||||
if chunk.tag == "FRM ":
|
|
||||||
assert No other FRM chunk after the last Bitstream chunk
|
|
||||||
assert No ALPH chunk after the last Bitstream chunk
|
|
||||||
frame_params = chunk
|
|
||||||
assert VP8X.canvasWidth >=
|
|
||||||
frame_params.frameX + frame_params.frameWidth
|
|
||||||
assert VP8X.canvasHeight >=
|
|
||||||
frame_params.frameY + frame_params.frameHeight
|
|
||||||
if chunk.tag == "ALPH":
|
|
||||||
assert No other ALPH chunk after the last Bitstream chunk
|
|
||||||
frame_params.alpha = alpha_data
|
|
||||||
if chunk.tag == "VP8 " OR chunk.tag == "VP8L":
|
|
||||||
render image in chunk on canvas with top-left corner in
|
|
||||||
(frame_params.frameX, frame_params.frameY). Show the contents
|
|
||||||
of the image for frame_params.frameDuration * 1ms.
|
|
||||||
Ignore unknown chunks
|
|
||||||
canvas contains the decoded canvas.
|
|
||||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
As described earlier, if an assert related to chunk ordering fails, the reader
|
|
||||||
MAY ignore the badly-ordered chunks instead of failing to decode the file.
