Highlights
- This release marks a significant milestone, featuring exclusively Open-Source software
- The Mesa Vulkan driver is now officially supported, complementing the existing, robust Mesa OpenGL component. To maintain a 100% open-source core, the AMD proprietary OpenGL and Vulkan drivers are no longer included.
- AMF is no longer included. AMF users are advised to transition to the open-standard VA-API / Mesa Multimedia for continued hardware video acceleration. Some examples of ffmpeg use cases with VA-API / Mesa Multimedia are shown below:
- Hardware Decode:
- ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi
- Hardware Encode:
- ffmpeg -vaapi_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -i in.mp4 -vf hwupload,scale_vaapi=format=nv12 -c:v h264_vaapi out.mp4
- Hardware Transcode:
- ffmpeg -vaapi_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -hwaccel vaapi - hwaccel_output_format vaapi -i in.mp4 -c:v hevc_vaapi out.mp4
Please feel free to direct any questions or comments to the AMD Online Service Request.
