vah265lpenc

vah265lpenc encodes raw video VA surfaces into H.265 bitstreams using the installed and chosen VA-API driver.

The raw video frames in main memory can be imported into VA surfaces.

Example launch line

gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc num-buffers=60 ! timeoverlay ! vah265lpenc ! h265parse ! mp4mux ! filesink location=test.mp4
