vaapih264enc and change bitrate

[Matteo Valdina]

Hi y'all,

I'm trying to use vaapih264enc and change the bitrate during the encoding.

I see from the source code and test that bitrate property is ignored after
the encoding begins.

I would like to know if there is any patch/ongoing work to add this feature
in the vaapi encoder?
Is it feasible as per current source code implementation of vaapih264enc.

The only way to obtain this behavior is to stop and re-start the
vaapih264enc?

Is something that I used on other software and hardware H.264 encoder, so,
I expected that it is achievable.

Best
Matteo Valdina
