Autotooled/Cmakified version of the opensource Intel media sdk dispatcher.

The dispatcher provided by Intel only works on MS visual studio builds due the fact it is written in C++ and mingw64 isn't ABI and library compatible. This set of build systems let you easily build a mingw-w64 one. Currently only windows support is provided, the package is made just to ease the testing of the QuickSync support in Libav/VLC.

BEWARE it is draft code and history will be rewritten many times.

Requirements

• MediaSDK drivers from Intel. You have to either :
  • link/copy the 'include' folder of the SDK into your regular mingw include path under the 'mfx' name (e.g. /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/mfx) or
  • create a symbolic link named 'mfx' in this project's include folder pointing to the intel media sdk include folder.
• mingw-w64 toolchain
• autotools or cmake (pick your poison)

Building using autotools

# autoreconf -i

# ./configure --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32

# make -j

# make install DESTDIR=/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32

Building with Cmake

# mkdir build && cd build

For cross-compiling to win32/64:

# cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32 -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../Toolchain-cross-mingw32-linux.cmake

For regular linux build:

# cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local

# make -j

# make install

Building on Linux

The linux version currently leverages libva, thus either libva-drm or libva-x11 is required. Only autotools is tested currently.
