📰 Intel’s Linux Vulkan Driver Adds AV1 Video Encoding for Arc Alchemist GPUs

by George WhittakerIntel’s open-source Linux graphics stack has taken another step forward with hardware-accelerated AV1 encoding through Vulkan Video. New code merged for Mesa’s ANV Vulkan driver enables the VK_KHR_video_encode_av1 extension on Intel’s DG2/Alchemist graphics hardware, including Arc A-Series GPUs.The development expands Intel’s Vulkan Video capabilities on Linux and gives applications another standardized way to access the...
