Intel QSV - Not Found - Ver240829

Bug
1

OS - LinuxMint 22
CPU - i5-13600K

I havent gotten this to work for 2yrs since I built my system. Been Using Windows 11 pro … works fine. Thought maybe with the upgrade to LM22 from 21.3 would make a difference but still Encoder Detect: Not Found

If relevent: My vainfo is
ibva info: VA-API version 1.20.0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/iHD_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_20
libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA-API version: 1.20 (libva 2.12.0)
vainfo: Driver version: Intel iHD driver for Intel(R) Gen Graphics - 24.1.0 ()

…looking at this a bit …does this indicate that the program is looking for the Intel driver in /usr/bin/lib/va/ when vainfo shows it is in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/ ? Or is it just a temp place the program puts the driver in its on file structure?

Looks like you are using the AppImage. Our portable binaries are a very mixed bag with respect to VA-API due to its difficult version dependencies between its multiple components. We bundle libva and some corresponding userspace drivers such as iHD_drv_video.so. Maybe that driver’s version is not working your GPU driver. In the portable (not AppImage), you can remove our Shotcut.app/lib/va/iHD_drv_video.so and see if it works. But it might then fail on a version conflict between the distro’s userspace VA driver and our bundled libva. You can remove our bundled libva, but then the app might have a version conflict with the distro’s libva version! The bundled VA-API lib and driver in the AppImage works with my AMD Radeon on Pop!_OS 22.04. I have exhausted my ability to get this working for many distros and versions. Can you figure it out and provide the solution?

Interestingly, I think the Flatpak is more reliable in this regard. Will you try it?

Yes was using AppImage … sorry forgot to mention that.
Not a big fan of flatpak … huge install size …
I am currently using Handbrake flatpak … although qsv is recognized it does not give same results (inferior speed,cpu utilization) as the windows 11 version

So I did make some progress with the portable binaries. I was able to get the h264_vaapi to be found but the h265_vaapi was not found.
When I did an export with h264_vaapi it looked like it did not use qsv as it was doing about 22fps and my cpu threads were all pretty busy.

The files I replaced/added are

added:
libigdgmm.so.12.3.0
libigdgmm.so.12 (link)
replaced:
libva.so.2_orig
libva-drm.so.2_orig
libva-x11.so.2_orig

i965_drv_video.so
iHD_drv_video.so

Let me know it there are other files I can replace/add to make further progress.

It did use QSV, but it is normal that CPU is still used; Shotcut does not use GPU for everything. This is explained in our FAQ.

In Windows 11 it completed in 38 secs vs 98 secs in LM22. The video is about 70secs long 25fps. so in Win it runs 70x25/38=46fps LM22= 70x25/98= 18fps
Which makes me suspicious the qsv is not being used. Plus very little cpu/thread use …maybe 10x less than on LM22.

This afternoon I will run LM22 with just h264 and see what I get.

Since nothing much is happening with this I will continue to use Shotcut in windows as qsv seems to work great with that version. Want to thank you for creating/improving this program as it enables me to put my vacation vids in a presentable form …can’t say I am stressing its capabilities all that much since I have pretty basic editing demands.

If at somepoint in the future you want me to test some qsv code in the portable version I would be happy to do that. QSV is an amazing technology … I did some tests using Handbrake about a year ago and it gave a nearly 10x improvement in efficiency (fps-watts) compared to software hevc encoders with approx equivalent quality

There is a bug in the Windows version UI for which I will post a separate bug report.
