BDW: Won't do HEVC <- yeah you read right the current i5 BDW Nuc flagship won't do HEVC.
BSW: Will do HEVC (It's half a SKL) -> and btw. the GPU Part only is called CHV within mesa and vaapi, while the complete chip, gpu + cpu is called CHV.
Missing: ffmpeg_hevc.c - Let's hope @FernetMenta wants to save the world a 3rd time :-)
Can you expand on that? My i5 broadwell NUC can do 4K HEVC decode of 24p material.
Intel Gen8 HD graphics with 12 execution units and 320MHz base / 600MHz boost frequency. Maximum shared memory of 512MB
How can that do 4K HEVC decode?
Aren't Broadwell and Haswell doing hybrid CPU+GPU HEVC decode (at least in Windows) rather than full GPU? AIUI they are offloading the H264-like elements of HEVC to the GPU, but there is some stuff that the GPU can't do, and that is done by the CPU.
