Intel® Media Server Studio is a comprehensive suite that enables development of awe-inspiring and visually enriching media applications, by providing access to the underlying media features that are exposed via the Media SDK and the drivers (Linux* and Windows*). The OpenCL™ Code Builder component assists with creating, debugging, and analyzing OpenCL™ applications for the underlying architecture.
If you want to use Intel® Media Server Studio for the OpenCL™ Code Builder installation, you will need to do the following: go to the Intel® Media Server Studio website, select either Professional, Essentials, or Community edition (the last one is a free product, so you might want to install that one if you are not planning to install additional components later on);
Now select the Intel® Media Server Studio for Windows Server download link:
and then make sure to only select Graphics Driver and OpenCL™ Code Builder entries:
Make sure to complete the installation and restart your computer.
