Video decoding acceleration via Media SDK

Hi all!

As I understood from MSDK tutorial samples, MSDK is able to accelerate video decoding via GPU usage (DXVA library) or parallel processing (OpenMP library).

But is MSDK able to use CPU specific features for video decoding acceleration (like Intel IPP)?

Best regards,

Roman

Thank you for reply, but all I can see there is optimization for the latest Intel CPU generation.

When I use IPP in my application, I can see that IPP detected my CPU type and loaded proper DLL set specially for this CPU type.

When I use MSDK in my application, I see nothing...

Best regards,

Roman

All processor-dependent branches are assembled into single libmfxsw*.dll. And hardware implementation interlayers are collected at libmfxhw*.dll
