[Libva] [PATCH 1/3] Merge and modify encoding bit-rate control per temporal layer.

Xiang, Haihao haihao.xiang at intel.com
Tue Sep 13 07:10:49 UTC 2016


Cherry-pick'ed from:
e6f92ae: Added geneirc support for encoding bit-rate control per temporal layer
753ec17: va.h: add data structure for the structure of temporal layer encoding

v2: Update the comment that user must send VAEncMiscParameterTemporalLayerStructure before
VAEncMiscParameterRateControl and VAEncMiscParameterFrameRate and the condition for error return
