I was thinking of adding OpenCL support to x264. I’ve googled a bit and it seems that people would be interested, except that not many are willing to start on such a big project. I don’t know GCC compiler directives well enough to start converting it to OpenCL.
I could work on the C code possibly; however, it’s a bit confusing to go through it. If someone were to add an OpenCL folder under the common folder adding to the configure script to allow for compiling with OpenCL support and put the C code in there of the important files such as mc.c, encode.c. Basically all the C code versions of the assembly files. I could implement OpenCL from there.
