Nageru currently needs:
- - An Intel processor with Intel Quick Sync, or otherwise some hardware
- H.264 encoder exposed through VA-API. Note that you can use VA-API over
- DRM instead of X11, to use a non-Intel GPU for rendering but still use
- Quick Sync (Nageru does this automatically for you if needed).
-
- - Two or more Blackmagic USB3 or PCI cards, either HDMI or SDI.
+ - Some sort of video capture cards; typically two or more Blackmagic USB3
+ or PCI cards, either HDMI or SDI (V4L2 is not generally supported).
The PCI cards need Blackmagic's own drivers installed. The USB3 cards
- are driven through the “bmusb” driver, using libusb-1.0. If you want
- zerocopy USB, you need libusb 1.0.21 or newer, as well as a recent
- kernel (4.6.0 or newer). Zerocopy USB helps not only for performance,
- but also for stability. You need at least version 0.7.4.
+ are driven through the “bmusb” driver, using libusb-1.0.
- Movit, my GPU-based video filter library (https://movit.sesse.net).
You will need at least version 1.5.2.
