AMD Xilinx Video SDK AMI for VT1 Instances (Ubuntu 22.04 LTS)
Product Overview
The AMD Xilinx Video SDK is a complete software stack allowing users to seamlessly leverage the hardware accelerated features of AMD Xilinx video codecs and enable high-density real-time transcoding for live streaming video service providers, OEMs, and Content Delivery Network (CDNs). Included in the AMD Xilinx Video SDK is a pre-compiled version of FFmpeg and GStreamer which integrates key video transcoding plug-ins, enabling simple hardware offloading of compute-intensive workloads (such as video decoding, scaling, and encoding) using these popular tools.
The AMD Xilinx Video SDK also provides a C-based application programming interface (API) which facilitates the integration of AMD-Xilinx video codec transcoding capabilities in proprietary frameworks.
In addition to enhanced OS/kernel support and bug fixes, the 3.0.0 release brings with it ultra low latency (ULL) encoding, dynamic GOP, min/max frame quantization parameter (QP) bounding, and support for updates using package feeds.
