Opaque Memory
Opaque memory support is removed in oneVPL due to its high complexity and a limited number of supported scenarios.
Mitigation Strategy
Opaque memory support is replaced with internal memory allocation concept. Refer to oneVPL hello example for the illustration.
Note that internal memory allocation is not available for legacy hardware. Applications will need to use external allocation if code needs to support hardware which targets the legacy Intel® Media SDK implementation.
