[Libva] VBR control for .h246 enconding

[Sanchez, AdolfoX]

Thanks for your reply Mr.Xiang

-Is there any approximate date of when the VBR support will be added to the driver?
-For testing purposes transconding can be used combining a hardware accelerated decoder+software decoding?


Best Regards,
Adolfo.

No.

Yes. 

You can also refer to h264encode which might works with PVR driver.

We will add support for VBR in the driver first.
