Hello,
Please find the proposal for the following two projects for GSoC this year. The FATE project had been proposed earlier already but I don't know why it didn't happen. I previously got the feedback from Thilo Borgmann and would be happy to get feedback from the community as well. """"""""""""""""" FATE tests for HW acceleration Description: FFmpeg's FATE regression test system do not include validation of hardware acceleration. This project is about to include these hardware-specific regression tests to the FATE system. Since this project requires access to corresponding hardware, it is not expected to cover the whole range of hardware accelerators there are but to initialize some useful tests for available hardware, most likely to include CPU acceleration on Intel or AMD at least. Access to other hardware can also be provided during the project, depending on the students requirements. Expected results: Implement tests for the different hardware decoding, encoding and transcoding capabilities there are. Prerequisites: Good C and Makefile coding skills, basic familiarity with Git. Qualification Task: TBD Mentor: Artem G (artem.galin [at] intel [dot] com) Backup Mentor: TBD """"""""""""""""" Title: oneAPI Video Processing Library (oneVPL) for CPU & GPU hardware accelleration (https://www.oneapi.com/) Description: Add support for oneVPL The oneAPI project is developing a common cross-platform API for video processing, including CPU and GPU hardware acceleration. At least Intel's MediaSDK (https://github.com/Intel-Media-SDK/MediaSDK < https://github.com/Intel-Media-SDK/MediaSDK>), providing the currently used QSV API used for HW acceleration on Intel, will transition to implement the oneAPI API, called oneVPL (https://github.com/oneapi-src/oneVPL). Therefore, this project aims to get FFmpeg ready for this new API to ensure future availability of not only Intel's HW acceleration after the transition to oneVPL but also for possible other implementations of the oneAPI from other vendors. Expected results: Implement a oneVPL library wrapper into FFmpeg. Validate that media pipelines work with no regressions by supported feature set and performance. Prerequisites: Good C and Makefile coding skills, basic familiarity with Git. Qualification Task: TBD Mentor: Artem G (artem.galin [at] intel [dot] com) Backup Mentor: TBD """"""""""""""""" Thanks, Artem. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
