VA-API (Video Acceleration API) user mode driver for Intel GEN Graphics family
|
|
|
|
VA-API is an open-source library and API specification, which provides access to
|
|
graphics hardware acceleration capabilities for video processing. It consists of
|
|
a main library and driver-specific acceleration backends for each supported
|
|
hardware vendor.
|
|
|
|
The current video driver backend provides a bridge to the GEN GPUs through the
|
|
packaging of buffers and commands to be sent to the i915 driver for exercising
|
|
both hardware and shader functionality for video decode, encode, and processing.
