[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v2 09/11] vaapi_encode: Add support for VFR mode

Mark Thompson sw at jkqxz.net
Mon Jan 28 01:47:05 EET 2019


Use the frame-skip feature to maintain a specified framerate from the
point of view of the driver.

+Enable VFR encoding with this maximum framerate.  This is implemented by
+indicating to the driver that frames have been skipped at some locations in
+the stream, and requires driver support.  The minimum interval between frames
+must not be smaller than this, and there may be problems if the maximum
+interval is more than a small multiple of it.
