FATE

If you want to run FATE on your machine you need to have the samples in place. You can get the samples via the build target fate-rsync. Use this command from the top-level source directory:

  $ make fate-rsync SAMPLES=fate-suite/

Dependencies

These are packages required for compiling, but you can remove them when you are done if you prefer:

• FFmpeg dependencies:

  $ sudo apt-get update -qq && sudo apt-get -y install \
  autoconf \
  automake \
  build-essential \
  cmake \
  git \
  libass-dev \
  libfreetype6-dev \
  libsdl2-dev \
  libtool \
  libvorbis-dev \
  libxcb1-dev \
  libxcb-shm0-dev \
  libxcb-xfixes0-dev \
  pkg-config \
  texinfo \
  wget \
  zlib1g-dev \
  nasm

• media-driver dependencies:

   sudo apt install libdrm-dev xorg xorg-dev libx11-dev libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dev

Build and Install

1. Build libva(VA-API)/libva-utils

$ ./configure && make -j `nproc` && sudo make install

2. Build media-driver

• Get gmmlib and media repo and format the workspace folder as below (suggest the workspace to be a dedicated one for media driver build):

    <workspace>
        |- gmmlib
        |- media-driver

mkdir <workspace>/build

• cd /build and run cmake like this:

cmake ../media-driver \
    -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
    -DMEDIA_VERSION="2.0.0" \
    -DBUILD_ALONG_WITH_CMRTLIB=1 \
    -DBS_DIR_GMMLIB=`pwd`/../gmmlib/Source/GmmLib/ \
    -DBS_DIR_COMMON=`pwd`/../gmmlib/Source/Common/ \
    -DBS_DIR_INC=`pwd`/../gmmlib/Source/inc/ \
    -DBS_DIR_MEDIA=`pwd`/../media-driver

if want to debug media-driver, add -DBUILD_TYPE=Debug option

make -j `nproc` && sudo make install

This will install the following files (e.g. on Ubuntu):

-- Installing: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/iHD_drv_video.so
-- Installing: /etc/profile.d/intel-media.sh
-- Installing: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/igfxcmrt64.so

For iHD_drv_video.so please export related LIBVA environment variables.

export LIBVA_DRIVERS_PATH=<path-contains-iHD_drv_video.so>
export LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=iHD

If everything is Ok, you can check this with vainfo, will get same output like this:

$ vainfo

3. Build FFmpeg

$ ./configure --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265 --enable-gpl --samples=../fate-suite/

verify the ffmpeg with VA-API hwaccel with the command:

$ ./ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi -hwaccel_output_format vaapi -hwaccel_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -i input.mp4 -c:v h264_vaapi output.mp4
