BitstreamDataFlag#

The BitstreamDataFlag enumerator uses bit-ORed values to itemize additional information about the bitstream buffer.

enumerator MFX_BITSTREAM_NO_FLAG#: The bitstream doesn’t contain any flags.

enumerator MFX_BITSTREAM_COMPLETE_FRAME#: The bitstream buffer contains a complete frame or complementary field pair of data for the bitstream. For decoding, this means that the decoder can proceed with this buffer without waiting for the start of the next frame, which effectively reduces decoding latency. If this flag is set, but the bitstream buffer contains incomplete frame or pair of field, then decoder will produce corrupted output.

mfxEncodeBlkStatsMemLayout#

enum mfxEncodeBlkStatsMemLayout#

< The enum to specify memory layout for statistics.

Values:

enumerator MFX_ENCODESTATS_MEMORY_LAYOUT_DEFAULT#: The default memory layout for statistics.

mfxEncodeStatsMode#

enum mfxEncodeStatsMode#

Values:

enumerator MFX_ENCODESTATS_MODE_DEFAULT#: Encode mode is selected by the implementation.

enumerator MFX_ENCODESTATS_MODE_ENCODE#: Full encode mode.

EncodeStatsLevel#

Flags to specify what statistics will be reported by the implementation.

enumerator MFX_ENCODESTATS_LEVEL_BLK#: Block level statistics.

enumerator MFX_ENCODESTATS_LEVEL_FRAME#: Frame level statistics.

mfxSurfaceComponent#

enum mfxSurfaceComponent#

The mfxSurfaceComponent enumerator specifies the internal surface pool to use when importing surfaces.

Values:

enumerator MFX_SURFACE_COMPONENT_UNKNOWN#: Unknown surface component.

enumerator MFX_SURFACE_COMPONENT_ENCODE#: Shared surface for encoding.

enumerator MFX_SURFACE_COMPONENT_DECODE#: Shared surface for decoding.

enumerator MFX_SURFACE_COMPONENT_VPP_INPUT#: Shared surface for VPP input.

enumerator MFX_SURFACE_COMPONENT_VPP_OUTPUT#: Shared surface for VPP output.

mfxSurfaceType#

enum mfxSurfaceType#

The mfxSurfaceType enumerator specifies the surface type described by mfxSurfaceHeader.

Values:

enumerator MFX_SURFACE_TYPE_UNKNOWN#: Unknown surface type.

enumerator MFX_SURFACE_TYPE_D3D11_TEX2D#: D3D11 surface of type ID3D11Texture2D.

enumerator MFX_SURFACE_TYPE_VAAPI#: VA-API surface.

enumerator MFX_SURFACE_TYPE_OPENCL_IMG2D#: OpenCL 2D image (cl_mem).

enumerator MFX_SURFACE_TYPE_D3D12_TEX2D#: D3D12 surface of type ID3D12Resource with 2D texture type.

enumerator MFX_SURFACE_TYPE_VULKAN_IMG2D#: Vulkan 2D image (VkImage).

mfxStructureType#

enum mfxStructureType#

The mfxStructureType enumerator specifies the structure type for configuration with the string interface.

Values:

enumerator MFX_STRUCTURE_TYPE_UNKNOWN#: Unknown structure type.

enumerator MFX_STRUCTURE_TYPE_VIDEO_PARAM#: Structure of type mfxVideoParam.

mfxAISuperResolutionMode#

enum mfxAISuperResolutionMode#

The mfxAISuperResolutionMode enumerator specifies the mode of AI based super resolution.

Values:

enumerator MFX_AI_SUPER_RESOLUTION_MODE_DISABLED#: Super Resolution is disabled.

enumerator MFX_AI_SUPER_RESOLUTION_MODE_DEFAULT#: Default super resolution mode. The library selects the most appropriate super resolution mode.

mfxAIFrameInterpolationMode#

enum mfxAIFrameInterpolationMode#

Values:

enumerator MFX_AI_FRAME_INTERPOLATION_MODE_DISABLE#: AI based frame interpolation is disabled. The library duplicates the frame if AI frame interpolation is disabled.

enumerator MFX_AI_FRAME_INTERPOLATION_MODE_DEFAULT#: Default AI based frame interpolation mode. The library selects the most appropriate AI based frame interpolation mode.

mfxQualityInfoMode#

enum mfxQualityInfoMode#

The mfxQualityInfoMode enumerator specifies the mode of Quality information.

Values:

enumerator MFX_QUALITY_INFO_DISABLE#: Quality reporting disabled.

enumerator MFX_QUALITY_INFO_LEVEL_FRAME#: Frame level quality report.

AlphaChannelMode#

The AlphaChannelMode enumerator specifies alpha is pre-multiplied or straight.

enumerator MFX_ALPHA_MODE_PREMULTIPLIED#: RGB and alpha are independent, then the alpha value specifies how solid it is. We set it to the default value, i.e., the alpha source data is already pre-multiplied, so that the decoded samples of the associated primary picture should not be multiplied by the interpretation sample values of the auxiliary coded picture in the display process after output from the decoding process.

enumerator MFX_ALPHA_MODE_STRAIGHT#: RGB and alpha are linked, then the alpha value specifies how much it obscures whatever is behind it. Therefore, the decoded samples of the associated primary picture should be multiplied by the interpretation sample values of the auxiliary coded picture in the display process after output from the decoding process.
