So I feel like the encoding part is the biggest bottleneck and it wouldn’t make much of a difference if the decoder and filter part are software. I don’t think the filter supports hw formats anyway, and for the second test only one of the decoders are vaapi. Setting the profile on the encoder might be what gets rid of the stereo frame packing settings, though I don’t know if the hw accelerated encoders configure those settings in the first place. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
