Hello,

I am not sure if this the right list for this, but I am seeing a strange issue 
with gstreamer-vaapi on Intel Haswell.

I am doing some experimentation using gstreamer-vaapi on an Intel i3-4370 CPU. 
I am running libva 1.6.1, and libva Intel driver 1.6.0 on Ubuntu 15.04.

My issue is that I cannot seem to get the thing to do anything except 
constrained baseline, despite asking it to do other profiles.

If I do something like this:

gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=/ramdisk/bbb_sunflower_1080p_30fps_normal.mp4 ! 
qtdemux ! vaapidecode ! vaapiencode_h264 ! video/x-h264,profile=high ! qtmux ! 
filesink location=/ramdisk/tmp.mov

It appears to work fine, but if I check with this:

avprobe -show_streams /ramdisk/tmp.mov

the output will indicate:
profile=Constrained Baseline

However, if I change the encode element to:
vaapiencode_h264 dct8x8=1
it does change the output profile.

My question is, is this correct behavior? Do we need dct8x8 to do anything 
higher than Constrained Baseline? If so, why? Is this a fundamental detail of 
H.264, or is this an implementation detail?

Thanks in advance for any help or pointers that you might able to give me.
-Bill
