gst-inspect-1.0 vaapi gives 0 features on Ubuntu

[Saurabh Bora]

Hi All, 

I have installed prebuilt binaries of gstreamer 14.4 on Ubuntu 18.04

It did not have gstreamer1.0-vaapi. Hence, I installed it using command - sudo apt-get install gstreamer1.0-vaapi.

Now, when I run the following command, I get output stating 0 features:

gst-inspect-1.0 vaapi

I expected output stating features such as vaapivp8enc, vaapivp8dec, etc.

Could anyone please help me understand the reason behind this?

Hi Experts!!

Could anyone please explain why there are 0 features in gstreamer-vaapi plugin. Is it unavialable in my installed gsteramer-1.14.4 version. 

Do I need to install any other specific version to be able to use gstreamer-vaapi elements?

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

Try LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=i965 vainfo

or uninstall the intel media sdk -> /opt/intel/mediasdk/lib64/iHD_drv_video.so

I do not know why it defaults to media sdk, you can create an issue to libva here https://github.com/intel/libva/issues

as this does not look like a gstreamer issue.

Hi Julien, 

Thanks! for your suggestion.

I tried setting the variable LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=i965

Following that I ran the vainfo command and output is as follows:

libva info: VA-API version 1.3.0

libva info: va_getDriverName() returns -1

libva info: User requested driver 'i965'

libva info: Trying to open /opt/intel/mediasdk/lib64/i965_drv_video.so

libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1

vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit

Also, I ran the command: gst-inspect-1.0 vaapi

I still get 0 features. Is there something else I need to do?

I need to use hardware accelerated vaapi encoding elements and as they are unavailable, I am unable to do so.

Regards,

Saurabh Bora

Hi Julien, 

Thanks! for your suggestion.

I tried setting the variable LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=i965

Following that I ran the vainfo command and output is as follows:

libva info: VA-API version 1.3.0

libva info: va_getDriverName() returns -1

libva info: User requested driver 'i965'

libva info: Trying to open /opt/intel/mediasdk/lib64/i965_drv_video.so

libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1

vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit

Also, I ran the command: gst-inspect-1.0 vaapi

I still get 0 features. Is there something else I need to do?

I need to use hardware accelerated vaapi encoding elements and as they are unavailable, I am unable to do so.

Regards,

Saurabh Bora

Hi,

Try LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=i965 vainfo

or uninstall the intel media sdk -> /opt/intel/mediasdk/lib64/iHD_drv_video.so

I do not know why it defaults to media sdk, you can create an issue to libva here https://github.com/intel/libva/issues

as this does not look like a gstreamer issue.

Hi Experts!!

Could anyone please explain why there are 0 features in gstreamer-vaapi plugin. Is it unavialable in my installed gsteramer-1.14.4 version. 

Do I need to install any other specific version to be able to use gstreamer-vaapi elements?

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi All, 

I have installed prebuilt binaries of gstreamer 14.4 on Ubuntu 18.04

It did not have gstreamer1.0-vaapi. Hence, I installed it using command - sudo apt-get install gstreamer1.0-vaapi.

Now, when I run the following command, I get output stating 0 features:

I expected output stating features such as vaapivp8enc, vaapivp8dec, etc.

Could anyone please help me understand the reason behind this?

What driver does vainfo select if you don't set LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME?

libva will iterate among the available VADevices (drm/x11/wayland) to find a
driver name compatible with the kernel driver with the open device.
