DG1 QuickSync and SR-IOV

[jcdick11]

I've looked through many articles, and haven't seen much regarding this.

Not so much interested in 3D acceleration as I am QuickSync.  If the DG1 cards actually become available, will QuickSync be available with vGPUs under SR-IOV?  I'm hoping to have hardware transcoding and live migration of a VM with the low power discrete Xe cards.

Thanks!

Great!  So now I just need to find three of them, and hope the drivers get brought up to speed.

Thanks!
