    Intel oneVPL 2022.1 Brings Support For Arc A Series, Rocky Linux, Better Multi-GPU

    Phoronix: Intel oneVPL 2022.1 Brings Support For Arc A Series, Rocky Linux, Better Multi-GPU

    While for years Intel has traditionally devoted all their video acceleration attention on Linux to VA-API (and the Media SDK albeit less popular with Linux enthusiasts), with the modern oneAPI world for Intel hardware their oneVPL library is quickly becoming a viable contender and a primary focus for their open-source video accelerator efforts. On Friday the oneVPL 2022.1 release was made available...

    Maybe AMD can now take over VA-API. Then they don't have to wait for Intel to give their approval and publish code. E.g. back when they introduced AV1 decoding to their graphics cards that was the reason they didn't add it to VA-API in the beginning.

    Of course, a unified API would be much better, but maybe Vulkan Video can achieve that. But until that is ready to replace the likes of VA-API, VDPAU and now oneVPL maybe AMD can step up their game there.

      AMD pushing AMF (open source) available on Windows and on Linux (amdgpu-pro) but possible in near future also on amdvlk or radv due releases to khronos video vulkan extensions. They waited for this because on Linux they targeting only Vulkan (not OpenGL) so it was not possible earlier to release AMF with support for amdvlk or radv without rebasing it for vulkan video because this extension was lack on opensource drivers.

        Who thought VPL would be a good acronym to reuse?
