Encoding VPP feature

[Celio_A_]

Hi, i need help in adding to sample_multi_transcode VPP 10bit (P010) conversion because working VPP feature on sample_decode is working but need too much space on disk and  i preffer pay a developer to add this feature and dont upgrade server disks, can u help me?

In the latest driver version VPP (P010) conversion its working with hardware implementation, what i need is a conversion like sample_decode have, i think its possible right? If sample_decode Works i think sample_multi_transcode can be added

Regards

Hi Celio,

If you look at the following code, we might already have it. Could you confirm by running this code?

https://github.com/Intel-Media-SDK/MediaSDK/blob/master/samples/sample_multi_transcode/src/transcode_utils.cpp#L274

Basically, VPP itself should not care about 8 bits or 10 bits.

Yes i know for software hevc encoding but for hardware encoding it always return not supported when u add -ec::p010 to comand line

Hi Celio,

Could you give me your environment so I could try it?

Based on our latest code, we never report "no support" in our recent sample, see the following code:

https://github.com/Intel-Media-SDK/MediaSDK/blob/master/samples/sample_multi_transcode/src/vpp_ext_buffers_storage.cpp#L260

It doesn't check for HW or SW either.

If i remove the command line option -ec::p010 it works but only 8 bit
