# The graphics/intel-media-driver port

## intel-media-driver-24.1.5p0 – VAAPI driver for Intel HD 5000 (Gen8) or newer

## Description

    VA-API (Video Acceleration API) user mode driver for Intel GEN Graphics family

    VA-API is an open-source library and API specification, which provides access to
    graphics hardware acceleration capabilities for video processing. It consists of
    a main library and driver-specific acceleration backends for each supported
    hardware vendor.

    The current video driver backend provides a bridge to the GEN GPUs through the
    packaging of buffers and commands to be sent to the i915 driver for exercising
    both hardware and shader functionality for video decode, encode, and processing.
