The Media Software Development Kit (Media SDK) Tutorials show you how to use theMedia SDK by walking you step-by-step through use case examples from simple to increasingly more complex usages.
The Tutorials are divided into few parts (sections):
| 1. | Introduces the Media SDK session concept via a very simple sample. |
| 2-4. | Illustrates how to utilize the three core SDK components: Encode, Decode and VPP (video pre/post processing). |
| 5. | Showcases transcode workloads, utilizing the components described in earlier sections. |
| 6. | Showcases more advanced and compound usages of the SDK. |
For simplicity and uniformity the Tutorials focus on the H.264 (AVC) video codec. Other codecs are supported by Intel® Media SDK and can be utilized in a similar way.
Additional information on the tutorials can be found at https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/media-sdk-tutorial-tutorial-samples-index. The Media SDK is available for free through the Intel® INDE Starter Edition for client and mobile development, or the Intel® Media Server Studio for datacenter and embedded usages.
