GStreamer multimedia framework

The current get_profile just return one possible profile for the encode, which is not enough. For example, if we want to support HEVC 4:4:4 profile, the input of encode should be VYUA rather than NV12 in HEVC main profile. So the command line: gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc num-buffers=200 ! capsfilter \ caps=video/x-raw,format=VUYA,width=800,height=600 ! vaapih265enc \ tune=low-power init-qp=30 ! fakesink can not work because vaapih265enc just report NV12 in sink caps, we need to specify the profile obviously like: gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc num-buffers=200 ! capsfilter \ caps=video/x-raw,format=VUYA,width=800,height=600 ! vaapih265enc \ tune=low-power init-qp=30 ! capsfilter caps=video/x-h265, \ profile=main-444 ! fakesink The encode should have the ability to choose the profile based on input format automatically. If the input video format is VUYA, the main-444 profile should be auto choosed. We modify to let get_allowed_profiles of each encode sub class to return an array of all supported profiles based on downstream's allowed caps, or return NULL if no valid profiles specified by downstream. If no allowed profiles found, all profiles which belong to the current encoder's codec will be the candidates. The function gst_vaapi_encoder_get_surface_attributes collects the surface's attributes for that profile list we just get. So for this case, both NV12 and VUYA should be returned. TODO: some codec like VP9, need to implement the get_profile() function. |

Overview
--------
gstreamer-vaapi consists in a collection of VA-API based plugins for
GStreamer and helper libraries.
* `vaapi<CODEC>dec' is used to decode JPEG, MPEG-2, MPEG-4:2, H.264
AVC, H.264 MVC, VP8, VC-1, WMV3, HEVC videos to VA surfaces,
depending on the actual value of <CODEC> and the underlying
hardware capabilities. This plugin is also able to implicitly
download the decoded surface to raw YUV buffers.
* `vaapi<CODEC>enc' is used to encode into MPEG-2, H.264 AVC, H.264
MVC, JPEG, VP8, HEVC videos, depending on the actual value of
<CODEC> (mpeg2, h264, etc.) and the hardware capabilities. By
default, raw format bitstreams are generated, so the result may be
piped to a muxer, e.g. qtmux for MP4 containers.
* `vaapipostproc' is used to filter VA surfaces, for e.g. scaling,
deinterlacing (bob, motion-adaptive, motion-compensated), noise
reduction or sharpening. This plugin is also used to upload raw
YUV pixels into VA surfaces.
* `vaapisink' is used to render VA surfaces to an X11 or Wayland
display. This plugin also features a "headless" mode (DRM) more
suited to remote transcode scenarios, with faster throughput.
Features
--------
* VA-API support from 0.39
* JPEG, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264 AVC, H.264 MVC, VP8, VC-1, HEVC and
VP9 ad-hoc decoders

libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev (>= 1.9.x)
libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-dev (>= 1.9.0)
* Renderers:
DRM: libva-dev (>= 1.1.0), libdrm-dev, libudev-dev

Skylake, etc. (HD Graphics)
* Intel BayTrail, Braswell
* Intel Poulsbo (US15W)
* Intel Medfield or Cedar Trail
* Hardware supported by Mesa VA gallium state-tracker
Usage
-----
VA elements are automatically plugged into GStreamer pipelines. So,
using playbin should work as is.
However, here are a few alternate pipelines that could be manually
constructed.
* Play an H.264 video with an MP4 container in fullscreen mode
$ gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=/path/to/video.mp4 ! \
qtdemux ! vaapidecodebin ! vaapisink fullscreen=true
* Play a raw MPEG-2 interlaced stream
$ gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=/path/to/mpeg2.bits ! \
mpegvideoparse ! vaapimpeg2dec ! vaapipostproc ! vaapisink
* Convert from one pixel format to another, while also downscaling
$ gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=/path/to/raw_video.yuv ! \
videoparse format=yuy2 width=1280 height=720 ! \
vaapipostproc format=nv12 height=480 ! vaapisink
* Encode a 1080p stream in raw I420 format into H.264
$ gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=/path/to/raw_video.yuv ! \
videoparse format=i420 width=1920 height=1080 framerate=30/1 ! \
vaapih264enc rate-control=cbr tune=high-compression ! \
qtmux ! filesink location=/path/to/encoded_video.mp4
