If I recall correctly, Intel was the first vendor to supply H.264 hardware video encoder as a Media Foundation Transform (since Windows 7) and overall Intel Quick Sync Video (QSV) was the earliest widely available implementation of hardware assisted encoding. However one of the aspects of such encoding seems to be missing: update of encoder…
Let us break the silence with a fresh Media Foundation bug. D3D11 WARNING: ID3D11DeviceContext::PSSetShaderResources: Resource being set to PS shader resource slot 0 is inaccessible because of a previous call to ReleaseSync or GetDC. [ STATE_SETTING WARNING #7: DEVICE_PSSETSHADERRESOURCES_HAZARD] A Direct3D 11 enabled instance of Video Processor MFT is doing something wrong with the data…
Microsoft released new Windows 10 update and again there is a new tsunami approaching. Media Foundation H.265 decoder: there is no longer “preliminary documentation” notice in MSDN article. The decoder is a substandard quality software item but it covers more or less what it has to. In particular, it indeed backs H.265 video playback including…
Recent submissions of DirectShow and Media Foundation capture capabilities brought references to new interesting hardware. 1. Magewell USB Capture HDMI Gen 2 AKA XI100DUSB-HDMI — USB\VID_2935&PID_0001 Reports ability to capture up to 1920×1080 video at 60 frames per second in YUY2 and RGB pixel formats. XI100DUSB-HDMI Video Media Types (Windows 10; 10.0.15063) XI100DUSB-HDMI Video Media…
Direct3D 11 DXVA decoding documentation lacks accuracy. The API, sadly, lacks other things too but it is a different story. D3D11_VIDEO_DECODER_BUFFER_DESC as defined in Windows SDK: MSDN documentation lost DataSize field, which is – ironically – the most important one along with buffer type. Related D3D11_1DDI_VIDEO_DECODERR_BUFFER_DESC structure has both fields but the Members section has…
It might look weird why would someone try Direct3D mode with a DSP, which is not supposed to be Direct3D aware, but still. I am omitting the part why I even got to such scenario. The documentation says a few things about MFT_MESSAGE_SET_D3D_MANAGER: This message applies only to video transforms. The client should not send…
It should be good news for those interested in hardware assisted video encoding as AMD extends offering in their new hardware and offers H.265 encoder in already well-known form factor: as a Microsoft Media Foundation Transform “AMDh265Encoder”: # System * Version: 10.0.14393, Windows 10, VER_SUITE_SINGLEUSERTS, VER_NT_WORKSTATION * Product: PRODUCT_PROFESSIONAL […] # Display Devices * AMD…
