Enum HardwareEncoder 

#[non_exhaustive]
pub enum HardwareEncoder {
    Auto,
    None,
    Nvenc,
    Qsv,
    Amf,
    VideoToolbox,
    Vaapi,
}

Hardware encoder type.

Specifies which hardware acceleration to use for encoding. Hardware encoding is generally faster and more power-efficient than software encoding, but may have slightly lower quality at the same bitrate.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

Auto

Auto-detect available hardware encoder

None

Software encoding only (no hardware acceleration)

Nvenc

NVIDIA NVENC

Qsv

Intel Quick Sync Video

Amf

AMD Advanced Media Framework (AMF, formerly VCE)

VideoToolbox

Apple VideoToolbox

Vaapi

VA-API (Linux)

Implementations

impl HardwareEncoder

pub fn available() -> &'static [Self]

Get the list of available hardware encoders.

Queries FFmpeg for available hardware encoders on the system. This is useful for UI to show which hardware acceleration options the user can select.

The result is cached on first call for performance.

Examples

use ff_encode::HardwareEncoder;

let available = HardwareEncoder::available();
for hw in available {
    println!("Available: {:?}", hw);
}

pub fn is_available(self) -> bool

Check if this hardware encoder is available.

Queries FFmpeg to determine if the hardware encoder is available on the current system. This checks for both H.264 and H.265 support.

Examples

use ff_encode::HardwareEncoder;

if HardwareEncoder::Nvenc.is_available() {
    println!("NVENC is available on this system");
}

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for HardwareEncoder

fn clone(&self) -> HardwareEncoder

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for HardwareEncoder

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for HardwareEncoder

fn default() -> HardwareEncoder

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl PartialEq for HardwareEncoder

fn eq(&self, other: &HardwareEncoder) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
