Save OpenGLES texture to PNG file - qt

I was able to create OpenGL texture from QImage with a code like this:
QImage qImage(file_name);
qImage = qImage.mirrored().convertToFormat(QImage::Format_ARGB32);
GLuint Id;
glGenTextures(1, &id);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, id);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
glTexImage2D(target, level, GL_RGBA, qImage.width(), qImage.height(), 0, GL_RGBA, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, qImage.bits());
where file_name is a JPG or PNG file.
And now I am looking for way to create QImage from a texture so I will be able to save it to a PNG file with QImage::save.
Theoretically I can crate QImage with its constructor
QImage::QImage(const uchar *data, int width, int height, QImage::Format format, QImageCleanupFunction cleanupFunction = nullptr, void *cleanupInfo = nullptr)
but it is not clear how do I access texture data.

Qt signal slot cv::Mat unable to read memory access violation

I have a Microsoft visual studio application that is grabbing frames from cameras and I am trying to display those frames in a Qt application. I am doing some processing with the frames using OpenCV, so the frames are Mat objects. I use QThreads to parallelize the application. I am getting a Access Violation reading location when I try to emit a Mat signal from my CameraThread class.

Can someone direct me on how I can fix this issue?
What I see is happenning:
You get an image from queue. As per OpenCV docs:
Mat& cv::Mat::operator= ( const Mat & m )
Assigned, right-hand-side matrix. Matrix assignment is an O(1)
operation. This means that no data is copied but the data is shared
and the reference counter, if any, is incremented. Before assigning
new data, the old data is de-referenced via Mat::release .
Then you pass it as cv::Mat image (by value) when emitting signal. The copy constructor again doesn't copy any data:
Array that (as a whole or partly) is assigned to the constructed
matrix. No data is copied by these constructors. Instead, the header
pointing to m data or its sub-array is constructed and associated with
it. The reference counter, if any, is incremented. So, when you modify
the matrix formed using such a constructor, you also modify the
corresponding elements of m . If you want to have an independent copy
of the sub-array, use Mat::clone() .
Your data pointers are queued on UI thread
You get/try-get new frame triggering release from p.1
Your queued slot is executed and crashes...
Suggestion: I haven't worked much with it, but it seems something like cv::Mat::clone to make a deep copy is what you need, to prevent release of memory before it would be used by UI thread.
Or possibly it would be enough to define image right when you pop it from queue:
cv::Mat image = camera_q->pop();

OpenGL texture not rendering if it's currently active

I was using QOpenGLWidget to render textured triangle, the code was looking good but the triangle was always rendering black i had problem with it for two days until i accidentally found out what the title says.
This is the code, the texture gets loaded to default location of GL_TEXTURE0 and the code will not work unless i call glActiveTexture(GL_TEXTURE1) at the end, GL_TEXTURE1 is just an example it can be any other texture slot except the one where texture actually is. Without the call the object will be black.
QImage ready;
QImage image("C:/Users/Gamer/Desktop/New folder/ring.jpg");
ready = image.convertToFormat(QImage::Format_RGBA8888);
glGenTextures(1, &texture);
glActiveTexture(GL_TEXTURE0);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture);
glUniform1i(glGetUniformLocation(program.programId(), "samp"), 0);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGB, ready.width(), ready.height(), 0, GL_RGBA, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, ready.constBits());
glGenerateMipmap(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glActiveTexture(GL_TEXTURE1)
I've tried some tests, creating multiple textures and displaying them all at once, the last active texture was always black unless i activate some other unoccupied slot.
I don't know what to make of this, i'm begginer in OpenGL and Qt but this doesn't sound right.

QOpenGLWidget is a rather complex abstraction which has some side effects which you might not expect. Quoting from the Qt5 docs:
All rendering happens into an OpenGL framebuffer object. makeCurrent() ensure that it is bound in the context. Keep this in mind when creating and binding additional framebuffer objects in the rendering code in paintGL(). Never re-bind the framebuffer with ID 0. Instead, call defaultFramebufferObject() to get the ID that should be bound.
Now, this in itself isn't an issue. However, looking at the description for the initializeGL() method (my emphasis):
There is no need to call makeCurrent() because this has already been done when this function is called. Note however that the framebuffer is not yet available at this stage, so avoid issuing draw calls from here. Defer such calls to paintGL() instead.
Now, this in itself still is not the issue. But: it means that Qt will create the FBO in-between initializeGL and the first paintGL. Since Qt creates a texture as the color buffer for the FBO, this means it will re-use the currently active texture unit, and change the texture binding you did establish in initializeGL.
If you, on the other hand set glActiveTexture to something other than unit 0, Qt will screw up the binding of that unit, but since you only use unit 0, it will not have any negative effects in your example.
You need to bind the texture to the texture unit before drawing. Texture unit state is not part of program state, unlike uniforms. It is unusual to try and set texture unit state during program startup, that would require allocating different texture units to each program (not out of the question, it's just not the way things are normally done).
Add the following line to paintGL, before the draw call:
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture);

How to set the colour of an alpha blended GL_TEXTURE_2D in a QGLWidget

I'm a newbie with blending and textures in Opengl. My render_text() method uses the drawText method in QPainter with a QImage as its device. The QImage becomes a GL_TEXTURE_2D and then is attached to a GL_QUADS. The text appears correctly over the 2d scene as black. I would like to know how to arbitrarily set the colour. If anyone can recommend a good tutorial on how the source to destination blending works would also benefit.
void GLView::render_text(char *txt, quint8 height)
{
QImage image;
qint32 font_height, width;
font_height = height * VIEW_SIZE / (ZOOM * OBJ_HEIGHT);
QFont font("Helvetica", font_height);
QFontMetrics fm(font);
// render text in QImage
QImage img(fm.width(txt), fm.height(), QImage::Format_ARGB32);
img.fill(0);
QPainter pixPaint(&img);
pixPaint.setFont(font);
pixPaint.drawText(0, font_height, txt);
// push to gl
image = QGLWidget::convertToGLFormat(img);
glPolygonMode(GL_FRONT_AND_BACK, GL_FILL);
//glBlendColor(1, 0, 0, 0.5);
glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
glEnable(GL_BLEND);
glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glGenTextures(1, &texture);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_NEAREST);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_NEAREST);
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGBA, image.width(), image.height(), 0, GL_RGBA, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, NULL );
glTexSubImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, 0, 0, image.width(), image.height(), GL_RGBA, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, image.bits() );
width = image.width() * ZOOM * OBJ_WIDTH / VIEW_SIZE; //calc object width from image width
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
glTexCoord2i(0,0); glVertex2f(0, 0);
glTexCoord2i(0,1); glVertex2f(0, height);
glTexCoord2i(1,1); glVertex2f(width, height);
glTexCoord2i(1,0); glVertex2f(width, 0);
glEnd();
glDisable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glDisable(GL_BLEND);
glDeleteTextures(1, &texture);
}
You can paint in the right color in the first place -- set the color on the QPainter object / QPen!
May I suggest you use QGLFrameBufferObject? You can draw into it with the QPainter and then draw it as texture with a Qt call within your GL code. Advantages:
Qt will use OpenGL for rendering the text
No copy to the GPU needed.
=> Much faster!

What is the magic inside Qt's bindTexture?

I am using Qt5 and QGLWidget class to render a live stream of pixels. I am having some performance problems and want to setup a pixel buffer to perform asynchronous data transfer.
I am trying to bind a texture the old fashioned way but it render as a blank. When I go back to my Qt5 code everything works.
Does anybody know how to get the standard OpenGL version to work?

How can I draw my opengl background keeping good performance?

I draw my background every frames :
void Window::paintGL()
{
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glLoadIdentity();
glEnable(GL_BLEND);
glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
backgrd->Draw();
texture = text->loadTexture(text->amis_path.toStdString(),text->w,text->h);
amis->Draw();
texture = text->loadTexture(text->enemis_path.toStdString(),text->w,text->h);
for (int i = 0; i<liste_enemis.length(); i++){
liste_enemis[i]->Draw();
}
for (int i = 0; i<liste_missiles.length(); i++){
liste_missiles[i]->Draw();
}
swapBuffers();
}
But when I run the game, the fps a pretty bad (1fps).
Edit :
Well I'm trying to load my background in a texture one time but it doesn't work :
Background::Background(int w, int h)
{
width = w;
height = h;
glGenTextures(1, &texture);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D,GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER,GL_NEAREST);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_NEAREST);
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D,0, GL_RGBA, back.width(), back.height(), 0,
GL_RGBA, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, back.bits());
glTexEnvf(GL_TEXTURE_ENV, GL_TEXTURE_ENV_MODE, GL_MODULATE);
}
void Background::Draw(){
glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D,texture);
glPushMatrix();
glTranslatef(width/2, height/2, 0.0f);
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
glTexCoord2d(0,0); glVertex3f(-width/2, -height/2, 0.0f);
glTexCoord2d(0,1); glVertex3f(-width/2, height/2, 0.0f);
glTexCoord2d(1,1); glVertex3f(width/2, height/2, 0.0f);
glTexCoord2d(1,0); glVertex3d(width/2, -height/2, 0.0f);
glEnd();
glPopMatrix();
}
The constructor load the background with glTexImage2D(...) and links it to the "texture" variable.
Then in my paintGL() function, I call the Background::Draw() function.
But when I run the game, there is no background.
If I move glTexParameteri(...) and glTexImage2D(...) functions from constructor to Draw function, it works.
You're reloading the textures each and every frame, that's what's causing your performance it (it will also consume your memory in no time).
Instead of reloading the texture every frame, load them only once, and then switch between textures using glBindTexture
