Add Flexible Encoding Infrastructre(FEI) support in Skylake #228

sreerenjb commented Jul 19, 2017

FEI(Flexible Encoding Infrastructure) is an extension to VA API which allows applications to have more control over different phases of encoding and trade off quality for speed with their own IPs.

The main highlight of FEI is the possibility to split the encoding process into two phases, first is ENC and the second is PAK.ENC is the operation which performs all motion vector calculation and prediction.PAK is doing all transformations and entropy coding. Without having FEI, the whole ENC+PAK is a black box to middleware, but with FEI user can extract the output of ENC and feed PAK with a custom enhanced motion vectors and macroblock prediction modes.

VA-API(libva):

Patches are already landed in mailing list: https://github.com/01org/libva/pull/83
For now, we only have APIs for AVC encode

intel-vaapi-driver:

Skylake is the only platform which is supporting FEI now.
Patches are on the way.
