New platforms since upstream version of i915 KMD does not fully support themīy default, media-driver builds against upstream i915 KMD and will miss Media-driver requires special i915 kernel mode driver (KMD) version to support the following If trying to rebuild open source kernel from source code, please add BUILD_KERNELS=ON.If trying to use pre-built open source kernel binaries, please add BUILD_KERNELS=OFF(Default).Free Kernel Build: ENABLE_KERNELS=ON ENABLE_NONFREE_KERNELS=OFF.Full Feature Build: ENABLE_KERNELS=ON(Default) ENABLE_NONFREE_KERNELS=ON(Default).Media-driver supports few build types as described below. ProcAmp: brightness,contrast,hue,saturationįor more feature information, please refer to Supported video processing csc/scaling format Build Options.Supported Encoding Input Format and Max Resolution.Supported Decoding Output Format and Max Resolution.Es - Hardware(PAK) + Shader(media kernel+VME) Encodingįor more decoding and encoding features information, please refer to.E - Hardware Encoding, Low Power Encoding(VDEnc/Huc).* VP8 decoding is only supported on TGL platform.Ubuntu intel-media-va-driver package is generated from this build type. Free Kernel Build, enables fully open source shaders(media kernels) and hardware features but the features would be limited.Ubuntu intel-media-va-driver-non-free package is generated from this build type. Full Feature Build is default driver build, which supports all feature by hardware accelerator and close source shaders(media kernel binaries).Media driver supports two build types as below Video processing supports several popular features by hardware-based video processor( VEBox/SFC) and shader(media kernel) based solution together.User could choose the mode through VA-API. Video encoding supports two modes, one calls hardware-based encoder( VDEnc/ Huc) to provide low power encoding, another one is hardware( PAK)+shader(media kernel+ VME) based encoding.Video decoding calls hardware-based decoder( VDBox) which provides fully-accelerated hardware video decoding to release the graphics engine for other operations.Media driver contains three components as below TGLx (TGL: Tiger Lake, RKL: Rocket Lake, ADL-S/P/N: Alder Lake, RPL-S/P: Raptor Lake).KBLx (KBL: Kaby Lake, CFL: Coffe Lake, WHL: Whiskey Lake, CML: Comet Lake, AML: Amber Lake).BXTx (BXT: Broxton, APL: Apollo Lake, GLK: Gemini Lake).
