intel-onevpl-23.2.2

Introduction to intel-onevpl

The intel-onevpl package contains a set of libraries that provide support for video acceleration for encoding and decoding tasks on modern Intel GPUs. This includes every GPU built into the Tiger Lake (11th Generation) CPUs and later, as well as the Arc and Iris Xe GPUs.

intel-onevpl Dependencies

Required

CMake, gmmlib, intel-media-driver, libdrm, and libva

This package extracts to vpl-gpu-rt-intel-onevpl-25.3.2.

Installation of intel-onevpl

Install intel-onevpl by running the following commands: 

mkdir build &&
cd    build &&

cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr   \
      -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release    \
      -D CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH=ON \
      -D BUILD_TESTS=OFF             \
      -D MFX_ENABLE_AENC=ON          \
      -W no-dev ..                   &&
make

This package does not come with a working test suite.

Now, as the root user: 

make install

Command Explanations

-D BUILD_TESTS=OFF: This parameter disables the tests as they are broken and require several external dependencies.

-D MFX_ENABLE_AENC=ON: This parameter enables the AENC extension.
