[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v7 3/8] libavutil/hwcontext_qsv: enabling d3d11va usage by default, add usage child_device_type argument

Tue Nov 3 20:45:52 EET 2020


Makes selection of d3d11va device type by default and over DirectX 9,
which might break users with older drivers/systems.
DCH driver with Gen6th support should be still fine.

Decode, encode, transcode have been validated.

child_device_type option is responsible for d3d11va/dxva2 device selection

Usage examples:

DirectX 11
-init_hw_device qsv:hw,child_device_type=d3d11va

DirectX 9 is still supported but requires explicit selection
-init_hw_device qsv:hw,child_device_type=dxva2
