Hello Everyone ,
I am working on hardware acceleration with intel media sdk , So know I wanna integrate intel media sdk with vlc player , I almost did that . I installed media sdk with vlc support . Now qsv encoder is available in VLC plugin list . but when I playing video with VLC that is not using hardware acceleration . that is consuming CPU . Anybody have any idea about that .
Thanks & Regards,
Satinder

VLC 2.2.6 already supports qsv for encode,
VLC's decode can be CPU or HW accelerated, like DXVA based
I am not sure what is exactly the question, there are plenty of link about VLC and enabling of its supported acceleration, like https://www.howtogeek.com/260784/how-to-make-vlc-use-less-battery-life-by-enabling-hardware-acceleration/
