Create, Edit, and Share Video in a Flash
Ultra HD video is everywhere, creating and viewing is more important and fun than ever. Spend clicks versus hours to edit, convert, and share your video, at home and online—with Intel® Quick Sync Video, your video is waiting for you, not the other way around.
What Is Intel® Quick Sync Video?
Intel® Quick Sync Video1 uses the dedicated media processing capabilities of Intel® Graphics Technology to decode and encode fast, enabling the processor to complete other tasks and improving system responsiveness.
How It Works
Video content is typically compressed and encoded into a specific format when it is stored on hard drives, DVDs, camcorders, cell phones, or broadcast media. When you want to play that content, upload it online, or copy it to your phone, it must first be decoded and then re-encoded in a new format, a resource-, and time-intensive process. Intel® Quick Sync Video uses the dedicated media processing capabilities of Intel® Graphics Technology to decode and encode fast, enabling the processor to complete other tasks and improving system responsiveness.
Intel® Quick Sync Video and FFmpeg installation and validation guide
“With increasing availability of cameras capturing 8K content with higher (4:2:2 vs. 4:2:0) color sampling, we see growing demand from content creators to be able to playback and otherwise manage such high-fidelity video content. Our collaboration with Intel has enabled us to optimize the DaVinci Resolve 17.1 application that is available now to take advantage of Intel’s built-in, dedicated, hardware-based Quick Sync Video technology on the latest 11th Gen processors to make these advanced media capabilities available to our customers, without compromising on performance. With Intel routinely architecting for the future and our strong partnership, we look forward to continuing to support the content creation community with the most advanced, intuitive and performant solutions, optimized for Intel CPUs.”
