@subsection Common Options
Following options are used by all qsv encoders.
@table @option
@item @var{async_depth}
Specifies how many asynchronous operations an application performs
before the application explicitly synchronizes the result. If zero,
the value is not specified.
@item @var{avbr_accuracy}
Accuracy of the AVBR ratecontrol (unit of tenth of percent).
@item @var{avbr_convergence}
Convergence of the AVBR ratecontrol (unit of 100 frames)
The parameters @var{avbr_accuracy} and @var{avbr_convergence} are for the
average variable bitrate control (AVBR) algorithm.
The algorithm focuses on overall encoding quality while meeting the specified
bitrate, @var{target_bitrate}, within the accuracy range @var{avbr_accuracy},
after a @var{avbr_Convergence} period. This method does not follow HRD and the
instant bitrate is not capped or padded.
@item @var{preset}
This option itemizes a range of choices from veryfast (best speed) to veryslow
(best quality).
@table @samp
@item veryfast
@item faster
@item fast
@item medium
@item slow
@item slower
@item veryslow
@end table
@item @var{forced_idr}
Forcing I frames as IDR frames.
@item @var{low_power}
For encoders set this flag to ON to reduce power consumption and GPU usage.
@end table
@subsection H264 options
These options are used by h264_qsv
@table @option
@item @var{extbrc}
Extended bitrate control.
@item @var{recovery_point_sei}
Set this flag to insert the recovery point SEI message at the beginning of every
intra refresh cycle.
@item @var{rdo}
Enable rate distortion optimization.
@item @var{max_frame_size}
Maximum encoded frame size in bytes.
@item @var{max_slice_size}
Maximum encoded slice size in bytes.
@item @var{bitrate_limit}
Toggle bitrate limitations.
Modifies bitrate to be in the range imposed by the QSV encoder. Setting this
flag off may lead to violation of HRD conformance. Mind that specifying bitrate
below the QSV encoder range might significantly affect quality. If on this
option takes effect in non CQP modes: if bitrate is not in the range imposed
by the QSV encoder, it will be changed to be in the range.
@item @var{mbbrc}
Setting this flag enables macroblock level bitrate control that generally
improves subjective visual quality. Enabling this flag may have negative impact
on performance and objective visual quality metric.
@item @var{adaptive_i}
This flag controls insertion of I frames by the QSV encoder. Turn ON this flag
to allow changing of frame type from P and B to I.
@item @var{adaptive_b}
This flag controls changing of frame type from B to P.
@item @var{b_strategy}
This option controls usage of B frames as reference.
@item @var{cavlc}
If set, CAVLC is used; if unset, CABAC is used for encoding.
@item @var{vcm}
Video conferencing mode, please see ratecontrol method.
@item @var{idr_interval}
Distance (in I-frames) between IDR frames.
@item @var{pic_timing_sei}
Insert picture timing SEI with pic_struct_syntax element.
@item @var{single_sei_nal_unit}
Put all the SEI messages into one NALU.
@item @var{max_dec_frame_buffering}
Maximum number of frames buffered in the DPB.
@item @var{look_ahead}
Use VBR algorithm with look ahead.
@item @var{look_ahead_depth}
Depth of look ahead in number frames.
@item @var{look_ahead_downsampling}
Downscaling factor for the frames saved for the lookahead analysis.

@end table
@item @var{int_ref_type}
Specifies intra refresh type. The major goal of intra refresh is improvement of
error resilience without significant impact on encoded bitstream size caused by
I frames. The SDK encoder achieves this by encoding part of each frame in
refresh cycle using intra MBs. @var{none} means no refresh. @var{vertical} means
vertical refresh, by column of MBs.
@item @var{int_ref_cycle_size}
Specifies number of pictures within refresh cycle starting from 2. 0 and 1 are
invalid values.
@item @var{int_ref_qp_delta}
Specifies QP difference for inserted intra MBs. This is signed value in
[-51, 51] range if target encoding bit-depth for luma samples is 8 and this
range is [-63, 63] for 10 bit-depth or [-75, 75] for 12 bit-depth respectively.
