Breaking API changes

  • None

Known issues:

  • New Video reader operator requires NVIDIA VIDEO CODEC SDK support in the platform. NVIDIA GPU Cloud (NGC) optimized containers lacks this functionality in the default configuration prior to 19.01. To enable it please run the container with the ‘video’ capability enabled, ie.:
    -e "NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES=compute,utility,video"
  • The video loader operator requires that the key frames occur at a minimum every 10 to 15 frames of the video stream. If the key frames occur at a lesser frequency, then the returned frames may be out of sync.

DALI v0.2.0 Pre-release
Pre-release

Bug fixes

  • Avoid full construction of the pipeline during construction and fix seed support in serialized pipelines (#16)
  • Fix as_tensor not keeping the parent alive in Python (#60)
  • Fix for "invalid resource handle" in multi-gpu training
  • Fixes to PyTorch example. Need to reset DALI iterators between epochs. Putting model/loss computation back to default stream due to encountered memory access errors otherwise (#15)
  • Move example file_list to proper dir (#38)
  • Added fallback to host decoder when image is not JPEG but PNG instead (like n02105855_2933.JPEG from ImageNet) (#118)

Breaking API changes

  • The API for the Resize operator changed to match other similar operators like ResizeCropMirror.
  • The API for the TensorFlow plugin changed to allow specifying the whole shape of the tensor instead of N, H, and W separately; which enables handling both NCHW and NHWC outputs.
  • The type of labels produced by the TensorFlow plugin have changed. In DALI version 0.1.2, it was always tf.float32. In this release, a new optional parameter called label_type is introduced to the TensorFlow plugin to control the type of label. The default value for label_type is tf.int64 to better align with the label type in TFRecord.
