Hardware Accelerated Video Encode

Gen12 implements a low-power low-latency fixed function encoder and a high-quality customizable encoder with hardware assisted motion estimation engine which supports AVC, MPEG-2, HEVC, and VP9.

The HW encode is exposed by the graphics driver using the following APIs:

  • Intel® Media SDK
  • MFT (Media Foundation Transform) filters

Xe supports full HW accelerated video encoding for AVC/HEVC/VP9/JPEG.
