Intel's VP9 encoder wrappers for VAAPI and QuickSync (with IceLake IGPs and above), and this is only supported on Linux (at the moment). The QSV encoder wrapper for VP9 isn't yet functional on Windows on any tested hardware. VAAPI is also only available on Linux. For the VP9 QSV encoder wrapper usage, see https://superuser.com/a/1644371/473795 for a good starting point with known limitations. For the VP9 VAAPI encoder wrapper usage, see https://stackoverflow.com/a/55036502/4675388 , and there are some known limitations with that encoder too. I'll retest this and report back as soon as I have access to Intel's (release or engineering sample silicon's) Xe and Arc GPU products, in (both discrete and) integrated where available. Expect a transition towards OneVPL (from QuickSync) for these workloads as from Intel's CometLake (10th Generation) and newer, and Intel Atom X moving forward. See https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/technical/onevpl-codecs-for-intel-hardware.html for more details. *Special notes:* 7th Generation KBL (Kabylake) GPUs have support for VP9 encoding wired up and available via VAAPI and *unofficially* via the media-driver package patched with the approriate hybrid encode mode enabled, see https://github.com/sreerenjb/media-driver/tree/vp9-enc-gen9-vme-pak However, this comes with multiple caveats, as noted on these PRs and issues: (a). https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-driver/pull/209 (b). https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-driver/issues/87 Which resulted in this decision not to wire up the functionality (by default) in the media-driver package: https://github.com/intel/media-driver/issues/630#issuecomment-495498209 2. On Mac OSX: There is potential for VP9 hardware-accelerated encoding via videotoolbox in future(?) M-series chips, considering that we now have H/W accelerated decoding for the same, see https://git.ffmpeg.org/gitweb/ffmpeg.git/commit/a41a2efc85f8c88caec10040ee437562f9d0b947 . Wouldn't bet too much on this (for now), but its' very feasible that Apple will eventually enable this function on their chips at some point. Warm regards, Dennis.
