Sunxi Cedrus VA backend
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
# Sunxi-Cedrus libVA Backend
|
||||
|
||||
This libVA video driver is designed to work with the v4l2 "sunxi-cedrus" kernel
|
||||
driver. However, the only sunxi-cedrus specific part is the format conversion
|
||||
from tiled to planar, otherwise it would be generic enough to be used with other
|
||||
v4l2 drivers using the "Frame API".
|
||||
## About
|
||||
|
||||
You can try this driver with VLC but don't forget to tell libVA to use this
|
||||
backend:
|
||||
This libVA backend is designed to work with the Sunxi-Cedrus VPU kernel driver,
|
||||
that supports the Video Engine found in most Allwinner SoCs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Status
|
||||
|
||||
The Sunxi-Cedrus libVA backend currently only supports MPEG2 video decoding.
|
||||
|
||||
## Instructions
|
||||
|
||||
In order to use the Sunxi-Cedrus libVA backend, the `sunxi_cedrus` driver has to
|
||||
be specified through the `LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME` environment variable, as such:
|
||||
|
||||
export LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=sunxi_cedrus
|
||||
vlc big_buck_bunny_480p_MPEG2_MP2_25fps_1800K.MPG
|
||||
|
||||
Sample media files can be found here:
|
||||
A media player that supports VAAPI (such as VLC) can then be used to decode a
|
||||
video in a supported format:
|
||||
|
||||
vlc path/to/video.mpg
|
||||
|
||||
