Get Started with Intel® oneAPI Video Processing Library

The Intel® oneAPI Video Processing Library (oneVPL) provides a single video processing API for encode, decode, and video processing that works across a wide range of accelerators.

The oneVPL project contains sample code to help users get started. The sample code shows the basic usage of the API and can be used to try out oneVPL functionality.

Before You Begin

Ensure oneVPL and its runtime libraries are installed successfully on your system.

You can also install oneVPL dispatcher, CPU runtime, and GPU runtime by building sources from GitHub.

System Requirements

Refer to the oneVPL System Requirements page.

Sample Code

Use the following sample projects to learn basic usage scenarios of oneVPL application programming interfaces and to try out oneVPL functionality:

  • hello/hello-decode: Read an encoded video stream file, decode it, and output it to a raw video file.
  • hello/hello-encode: Read a raw video file, encode it, and output it to an encoded video stream file.
  • hello/hello-vpp: Read a raw video file (I420), resize it, and output it to a new raw video file (I420).

For detailed instructions, refer to the individual README files in each oneVPL sample directory.

Build and Run Sample Code on Linux

Note: The following variables are used in the steps below.

  • <oneVPL build root> refers to the root directory of the oneVPL installation when oneVPL is built from the source code
  • <sample name> refers to one of the names of hello-decode, hello-encode, hello-vpp mentioned in Sample Code section

Clone the source code

git clone https://github.com/oneapi-src/oneVPL.git
cd oneVPL

Set up environment

source <oneVPL build root>/env/vars.sh # When you build oneVPL from sources

Additional setup steps for GPU:

Windows: refer to oneVPL Installation Guide.

Linux: 

Build and run samples with cmake

All samples with the source code in <oneVPL sample root>/Libraries/oneVPL/<sample name> can be built and run using the following process:

source <oneVPL install root>/setvars.sh
cd examples/<sample group>/<sample name>
# Build sample
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build .
# Run sample
cmake --build . --target run

Note:

  • On success, you will see [max-content] completed at the end of the cmake target output.

You may also compile and link applications using pkg-config.

Test built samples from command line

Run "hello-decode":

./hello-decode -i ../../../content/cars_128x96.h265

Expected result below.

Note: Implementation details may be different based on what is found on the system when the sample is run.

Implementation details:
  ApiVersion:           2.6
  Implementation type:  SW
  AccelerationMode via: NA
  Path: /opt/intel/oneapi/vpl/2022.1.0/oneVPL_Linux_Q1_RC1/lib/libvplswref64.so.1
Decoding ../../../content/cars_128x96.h265 -> out.raw
Output colorspace: I420 (aka yuv420p)
Decoded 60 frames

 

Build and Run Sample Code on Windows

Note: The following variables are used in the steps below.

  • <oneVPL build root> refers to the root directory of the oneVPL installation when oneVPL is built from the source code
  • <sample name> refers to one of the names of hello-decode, hello-encode, hello-vpp mentioned in Sample Code section

Clone the source code

git clone https://github.com/oneapi-src/oneVPL.git
cd oneVPL

Set up environment

<oneVPL build root>\env\var.bat # When you build oneVPL from sources

Build and run samples with cmake

<oneVPL install root>\setvars.bat
cd examples\<sample group>\<sample name>
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build .
cmake --build . --target run

Note:

  • On success, you will see [max-content] completed at the end of the cmake target output.

You may also compile and link applications using pkg-config.

Test built samples from command line

Run "hello-decode":

Debug\hello-decode.exe -i ..\..\..\content\cars_128x96.h265

Expected result below.

Note: Implementation details may be different based on what is found on the system when the sample is run.

Implementation details:
  ApiVersion:           2.6
  Implementation type:  SW
  AccelerationMode via: NA
  Path: C:\vpltmp\bin\libvplswref64.dll
Decoding ..\content\cars_128x96.h265 -> out.raw
Output colorspace: I420 (aka yuv420p)

Run pre-built Intel® Media SDK tools on Linux

cd <oneVPL install root>/vpl/latest/bin
source <oneAPI install root>/setvars.sh
sample_decode.exe h265 -i ../content/cars_128x96.h265

Expected result below.

Note: Implementation details may be different based on what is found on the system when the sample is run.

Run other pre-built samples

You can also try the pre-built sample and tool binaries at <oneVPL install root>/vpl/latest/bin.

Troubleshooting

To check the oneVPL installation, review the content in the appropriate oneVPL installation directory:

  • For root users in Linux: /opt/intel/oneapi/vpl/latest
  • For non-root users in Linux: $HOME/intel/oneapi/vpl/latest, or you can configure your own
  • For Windows: C:\Program Files (x86)\oneapi\vpl\latest

NOTE: “latest” is a soft link to point to the latest installed version. Multiple oneVPL versions can exist on the same system.

Debugging

Use the following debug versions of oneVPL on Windows:

  • Static linking:vpld.lib

  • Dynamic linking: libvpld.dll

Next Steps

To explore oneVPL functionality, you can:

  • Start to build your own prototype based on the samples and oneVPL programming guide.
  • Evaluate the features and performance of oneVPL as part of your future product.

Note: oneVPL is aligned with the oneVPL Specification version 2.3 at the time of 2021.2.2 release. oneVPL Specifications below 2.3 version used the legacy header and dispatcher naming. As a result, the prototypes developed with the 2021.1.1 revision of oneVPL should use the legacy oneVPL Programming Guide.
