None

What happened?

  1. Linux OS
  2. use gmmlib/media-driver/onevpl gitbub master commit.
  3. Run ffmpeg-qsv cmd with multi reference frames(>2)(set with option -refs 3), but the output frames in bitstream only use 2 reference frame at most.
    3.1 AVC encode:
    ffmpeg -v verbose -hwaccel qsv -hwaccel_output_format qsv -f lavfi -i testsrc=size=1280x720 -vf 'format=nv12,hwupload=extra_hw_frames=120' -c:v h264_qsv -refs 3 -rc_mode cqp -q 10 -b_strategy 0 -vframes 100 -y qsv.mp4
    3.2 HEVC encode:
    ffmpeg -v verbose -hwaccel qsv -hwaccel_output_format qsv -f lavfi -i testsrc=size=1280x720 -vf 'format=nv12,hwupload=extra_hw_frames=120' -c:v hevc_qsv -refs 3 -rc_mode cqp -q 10 -b_strategy 0 -vframes 100 -y qsv.mp4
    3.3 AV1 encode:
    ffmpeg -v verbose -hwaccel qsv -hwaccel_output_format qsv -f lavfi -i testsrc=size=1280x720 -vf 'format=nv12,hwupload=extra_hw_frames=120' -c:v av1_qsv -refs 3 -rc_mode cqp -q 10 -b_strategy 0 -vframes 100 -y qsv.mp4
  4. While vainfo -a shows that AVC/HEVC/AV1 can support more than 2 reference frames. And same cmd on TGL looks good.
