Introduction

The VLC media player framework can use your graphics chip (a.k.a. GPU) to accelerate decoding of video streams depending on the video codec, graphic card model and operating system. In some cases, it can let the graphic card perform post-processing and rendering of the decoded video. In any case, this frees the main processor (i.e. CPU) of some of the most computationally heavy sub-tasks involved in playing digital video.

Activation

See also: VLC HowTo/Hardware acceleration

To enable hardware accelerated decoding, use the VLC preferences. By default, hardware acceleration is disabled (and consequently, hardware acceleration is not yet available to external application via libVLC).

In VLC version 2.1, you can select which acceleration method you wish to use among those available for your operating system (if any). In earlier versions, there was simply a check box as shown below:

Operating system support

Windows

Since VLC version 1.1.0, DirectX Video Acceleration (DxVA) is supported in DxVA 2.0. It is available in Windows Vista (or Windows 2008) or any later Windows version; it is not available for Windows XP/2003 (and never will be).

This has also been discussed in the forum

The following video codecs are supported: MPEG-1, MPEG-2, WMV3, VC-1 and H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC).

X11 (GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, etc.)

On Linux/X11, there are two competing interfaces for hardware video decoding, VA-API from Intel, and VDPAU from NVIDIA. Generally, VAAPI is used for Intel and Broadcom graphic cards, while VDPAU is used for AMD/ATI and NVIDIA cards.

VA-API

Nvidia purevideo hd technology

VA-API is supported for decoding only since VLC version 1.1.0.Refer to VLC VAAPI for more details.

On modern Ubuntu distributions, first install the hardware support (packages i965-va-driver, libva-intel-vaapi-driver and vainfo) and then activate GPU hardware acceleration in Preferences → Input&Codecs.

Install via the terminal command:

The following video codecs are supported: MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 Visual, WMV3, VC-1 and H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC).

VDPAU

VDPAU is supported for decoding since VLC version 2.1.0, and for post-processing and rendering since VLC 2.2.0 (still in development as of late 2013).

VDPAU will be enabled automatically by default in VLC version 2.2.0 onward.Refer to http://www.remlab.net/op/vlc-vdpau.shtml for technical details.

The following video codecs are supported for decoding: MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 Visual (and possibly H.263), WMV3, VC-1 and H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC). Almost all video codecs are supported for post-processing and rendering.

macOS

Video Decoding Acceleration (VDA) comes with macOS X.6.3 and later (see API). This is somewhat supported in VLC 2.1.0.

Only H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC) is supported currently.

Graphic card compatibility

Windows

To check your DxVA compatibility, please download DxVA Checker

nVidia

For nVidia GPU, you are required to use a GPU supporting PureVideo in its 2nd generation (VP2 or newer), which means that you need an ION, GeForce 8, GeForce 9 (recommended), GeForce 200 or newer.

We strongly recommend a VP3 or VP4 GPU.

To be sure, check your GPU against this table on Wikipedia and check if you are VP2 or newer.

ATI

For ATI GPUs, you NEED Catalyst 10.7, that is just out.

Then, you are required to use a GPU supporting Unified Video Decoder.

See Full List On En.wikipedia.org

We believe you need a GPU supporting UVD2, like HD4xxx, 5xxx, 6xxx or 3200. One might have success with UVD+ GPU, like some HD 3xxx, but this isn't tested.

Latest Intel GMA should work. Tested on GNU/Linux (Ubuntu 13.10) and hardware acceleration definitely works for Intel HD Graphics 3000 (dropped CPU usage for HD720 (1280 x 720, H.264, 24fps) from 12-13% to 6%).

Version 1.02-223
  • Release Date: Jul 1, 2006
  • Support for High Definition (HD) inverse telecine on compatible GPUs. See http://www.nvidia.com/page/purevideo.html for a list of supported GPUs.
  • After installing the PureVideo Decoder and using the MCE 'speaker setup' wizard to select 5.1 speakers, the audio will only be set in 2 channel stereo mode. This is a known issue with Microsoft Media Center Edition 2005 Update Rollup2. You may download this patch to fix the problem. The patch sets the proper value for 5.1 analog and must be run after using the speaker setup wizard. Note: You must run this patch every time after you run the wizard in order for the settings to remain active.
