Each time when I launch a command line like: ./ffmpeg -c:v h264_qsv -i hd.mp4 -y result.yuv I can see that: 1. decoder opens, 2. decoding until stream detect performs, 3. decoder closes, 4. decoder opens, 5. normal decoding begins. I still not big ffmpeg expert but I suspecting this behavior is by design. HL> - You want the bsf to convert the bitstream to annexb, but not the HL> extradata? Why not? qsv* modules does not touch extradata at all. But at step #5 above the bsf bumped to converted extradata which product of bsf by itself at step #2. So at step #5 bsf confuses and fails. So no mkv and mp4 decoding by h264_qsv at all currently.

Intel's QSV decoder does require annex-b stream, it is documented in SDK reference. I can implement necessary functions to generate annex-b prefixes just into libavcodec/qsvdec_h264.c if Michael will agree this way. -- Best regards, Ivan mailto:ivan.us...@nablet.com _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
