vaapivp9dec

vaapivp9dec decodes from VP9 bitstreams to surfaces suitable for the vaapisink or vaapipostproc elements using the installed VA-API back-end.

In the case of OpenGL based elements, the buffers have the GstVideoGLTextureUploadMeta meta, which efficiently copies the content of the VA-API surface into a GL texture.

Also it can deliver normal video buffers that can be rendered or processed by other elements, but the performance would be rather bad.

Example launch line

 gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=./sample.vp9.webm ! ivfparse ! vaapivp9dec ! vaapisink
