Processes That Can Be Accelerated With VA API
Video decoding and post-processing processes that can be offloaded and accelerated if both the device drivers and GPU hardware supports them:
- Motion compensation (mocomp)
- Inverse discrete cosine transform (iDCT)
- In-loop deblocking filter
- Intra-frame prediction
- Variable-Length Decoding (VLD), more commonly known as slice-level acceleration
- Bitstream processing (CAVLC/CABAC)

Famous quotes containing the word processes:
“The vast results obtained by Science are won by no mystical faculties, by no mental processes other than those which are practiced by every one of us, in the humblest and meanest affairs of life. A detective policeman discovers a burglar from the marks made by his shoe, by a mental process identical with that by which Cuvier restored the extinct animals of Montmartre from fragments of their bones.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
