It is Video Acceleration-API and is supported by some tools directly, but most often using Mesa or libva-VADPAU. Without VA-API support, the graphics will be handled by the CPU, not the GPU. Both H.264 (AVC) nd H.265 (HVEC) are supported by VAAPI. Are you building ffmpeg from source or installing a package? Patented ports need to be built "NONFREE=3Don" for patented codecs. I am not sure what options the ffmpeg package is built with. Are you sure that Video Acceleration is working on your GPU? I have an Alder Lake Intel GPU and, as of last week, the device in FreeBSD's drivers. (New GPU firmware was added this week, but I have yet to try it to confirm whether it fixes the issue.) Easy check is to play a high res (780 or higher) video. If you have VA-API working, CPU usage will not change much. With VA-API support, it will increase significantly. More accurate check is to install graphics/xdpiinfo and run it (no args) or graphics/glx-utils and run "glxinfo into a pager (more, less, or most). glxinfo is quite verbose. You want to look for "Accelerated:'' about 50 lines from the top. I am not an expert on all of this, but I've learned a bit trying to get my Alder Lake work properly on FreeBSD. --=20 Kevin Oberman, Part time kid herder and retired Network Engineer E-mail: rkoberman@gmail.com PGP Fingerprint: D03FB98AFA78E3B78C1694B318AB39EF1B055683 --00000000000030696e060e4ee8f4 Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

First, VAAPI=C2=A0 is not a co= dec. It is Video Acceleration-API and is supported by some tools directly, = but most often using Mesa or libva-VADPAU. Without VA-API support, the grap= hics will be handled by the CPU, not the GPU. Both H.264 (AVC) nd H.265 (HV= EC) are supported by VAAPI.

Are you b= uilding ffmpeg from source or installing a package? Patented ports need to = be built "NONFREE=3Don" for patented codecs. I am not sure what o= ptions the ffmpeg package is built with.

Are you sure that Video Acceleration is working on your GPU? I have an Ald= er Lake Intel GPU and, as of last week, the device in FreeBSD's drivers= . (New GPU firmware was added this week, but I have yet to try it to confir= m whether it fixes the issue.) Easy check is to play a high res (780 or hig= her) video. If you have VA-API working, CPU usage will not change much. Wit= h VA-API support, it will increase significantly. More accurate check is to= install graphics/xdpiinfo=C2=A0 and run it (no args) or graphics/glx-utils= and run "glxinfo into a pager (more, less, or most). glxinfo is quite= verbose. You want to look for "Accelerated:'' about 50 lines = from the top.

I am not an expert on = all of this, but I've learned a bit trying to get my Alder Lake work pr= operly on FreeBSD.
