Intel® Video Processing Library (Intel® VPL) Tools

Intel® Video Processing Library (Intel® VPL) tools provide access to hardware accelerated video decode, encode, and processing capabilities on Intel® GPUs from the command line.

The tools require the Intel® VPL base library and a runtime library installed. Current runtime implementations:

• Intel® VPL GPU Runtime for use on Intel® Iris® Xe graphics and newer
• Intel® Media SDK for use on legacy Intel graphics

Follow the instructions on the respective repos to install the desired implementation.

Build from Source

Building the tools requires an installation of Intel® VPL development package.

Build and install the Intel® VPL development package

Linux:

git clone https://github.com/intel/libvpl
pushd libvpl
export VPL_INSTALL_DIR=`pwd`/../_vplinstall
sudo script/bootstrap
cmake -B _build -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$VPL_INSTALL_DIR
cmake --build _build
cmake --install _build
popd

Windows cmd prompt:

git clone https://github.com/intel/libvpl
pushd libvpl
set VPL_INSTALL_DIR=%cd%\..\_vplinstall
script\bootstrap.bat
cmake -B _build -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=%VPL_INSTALL_DIR%
cmake --build _build --config Release
cmake --install _build --config Release
popd

Note: bootstrap.bat requires WinGet

Build and install the Intel® VPL tools

Linux:

git clone https://github.com/intel/libvpl-tools
pushd libvpl-tools
export VPL_INSTALL_DIR=`pwd`/../_vplinstall
sudo script/bootstrap
cmake -B _build -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$VPL_INSTALL_DIR
cmake --build _build
cmake --install _build --prefix $VPL_INSTALL_DIR

Windows cmd prompt:

git clone https://github.com/intel/libvpl-tools
pushd libvpl-tools
set VPL_INSTALL_DIR=%cd%\..\_vplinstall
script\bootstrap.bat
cmake -B _build -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=%VPL_INSTALL_DIR%
cmake --build _build --config Release
cmake --install _build --config Release --prefix %VPL_INSTALL_DIR%

Note: bootstrap.bat requires WinGet
