I am trying to use quick sync video encoding with ffmpeg. Posted: Fri 4:28 am Post subject: Intel quicksync video and ffmpeg was instrumental with getting the QSV version working, as I was having all kinds of headaches trying to use only VAAPI.Gentoo Forums :: View topic - Intel quicksync video and ffmpeg

The only requirement on the host is that the /dev/dri device be available. The repo is here: and I have images already built if you don't want to build your own available both from my personal repository and Docker Hub.Īs an example, this is what I would run on one of my NUCs assuming that the source files are in a sub directory named src that is in my current working directory:ĭocker run -rm -device /dev/dri:/dev/dri -v $(pwd):$(pwd) -w $(pwd) /img/other-transcode:qsv-0.7.0 -eac3 -pass-dts -add-subtitle auto -burn-subtitle auto -decode all -qsv-decoder -preset veryslow src/*.mkv The advantage is you don't have to mess around with system dependencies. I didn't think of it until just now, but since you're on a Linux box, you might find the Docker containers that I make for other-transcode useful.
