x264 OpenCL
Now before you guys groan and say "Oh not another noob asking for a GPU accelerated OpenCL", take a look at this article first:
http://www.anandtech.com/show/5835/t...ds-trinity-apu Yes there actually is an implementation of x264 with the lookahead function offloaded to the GPU. And the speed difference is quite impressive actually. Now the question is where can we download it |

Intel provides a very minimal high-level encoding API missing all but the most basic features for video encoding. The low-level API is completely undocumented and barely half existent, and they haven't shown any real interest in exposing it in any real way.
Naturally, it's unsurprising that people aren't interested in something that Intel themselves doesn't seem to care about. |

nice to see x264 getting opencl support, keep up the awesome work Dark Shikari & you other awesome devs and it might be useful to make this the offical x264 opencl thread, so people dont post yet more threads about the same subject

I assume that it requires OpenCL 1.1 GPU at least?
