QSV and ffmpeg C++ example

I'm trying to use qsv from ffmpeg with an example i found if ffmpeg src, but it isnt work for me, could you suggest me another one example or say what i do wrong?

When i used this example i had an output:

[AVHWFramesContext @ 048F29E0] Error synchronizing the operation: -3
Error transferring the data to system memory
[AVHWFramesContext @ 048F29E0] Error synchronizing the operation: -2
Error transferring the data to system memory

if i change in function ret = av_hwdevice_ctx_create(&decode.hw_device_ref, AV_HWDEVICE_TYPE_QSV, "auto", NULL, 0) "auto" to "auto_any" its starts work but it using my Nvidia? not Intel Gpu....what I do wrong?

 

There is an example src i used:

Hi,

I think you may want to check your CPU is supported by MSDK in release note.

https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/media_server_studio_essentials_release_notes_linux.pdf

 

Thanks,

Zachary
