[FFmpeg-user] QSV Hevc to HLS not segmenting?

[Markku Vainio]

Hello,


Encoding with  hevc_qsv results only one large 00000.ts. It seems to me that ffmpeg is unable to split QSV encoded HEVC stream. (Intel Core i7-6770HQ, Iris Pro 580, W10)

ffmpeg -y -i alasin.mp4 -vf yadif=0 -c:v hevc_qsv -load_plugin hevc_hw -g 25 -q 20 -preset slow -pix_fmt nv12 -c:a aac -ac 2 -hls_time 2 -hls_wrap 10000 -hls_segment_filename "%%05d.ts" index.m3u8



With libx265 splitting works fine. I also successfully tested h264_qsv.

ffmpeg -y -i masteri.mov -vf yadif=0 -c:v libx265 -g 25 -q 20 -preset slow -c:a aac -ac 2 -hls_time 2 -hls_wrap 10000 -hls_segment_filename "%%05d.ts" index.m3u8


Am I doing something wrong here or is the HEVC stream coming from QSV missing some information that is needed for splitting at GOP boundary?
