Thank you for contribution and help. Hardware acceleration (GPU) is not implemented due to stability issues so far. Hardware acceleration depends on MOVIT integration on MLT. Dev's working on it. Hi emohr, thanks for your answer. Just to make sure, there is no way to use my own ffmpeg version with the appimage kdenlive, is there? You can try: Hit CTRL+SHIFT+, (comma)-> Environment -> there you can set the FFMPEG paths. |
When using the Appimage version of kdenlive (I tested 19.12.3 and 20.04-rc2) HW acceleration (VAAPI) is not available. STEPS TO REPRODUCE Settings -> Run Config Wizard -> Check hardware acceleration OBSERVED RESULT "No hardware encoders found." Terminal output is: // FFMPEG ARGS: ("-hide_banner", "-y", "-vaapi_device", "/dev/dri/renderD128", "-f", "lavfi", "-i", "smptebars=duration=5:size=1280x720:rate=25", "-vf", "format=nv12,hwupload", "-c:v", "h264_vaapi", "-an", "-f", "mp4", "/tmp/KpfdjT.mp4") /// ++ VAAPI FAILED :::::: EXPECTED RESULT HW acceleration works like when I use the version from the Ubuntu repository. It seems that the ffmpeg version in the Appimage doesn't recognize the "vaapi_device" option (the ffmpeg in /usr/bin/ does): » /usr/bin/ffmpeg -hide_banner -vaapi_device /dev/dri/renderD128 Hyper fast Audio and Video encoder usage: ffmpeg [options] [[infile options] -i infile]... {[outfile options] outfile}... Use -h to get full help or, even better, run 'man ffmpeg' » /tmp/.mount_kdenli0yi7bI/usr/bin/ffmpeg -hide_banner -vaapi_device /dev/dri/renderD128 Unrecognized option 'vaapi_device'. Error splitting the argument list: Option not found If you need additional information please let me know.
