Wowza Transcoder AddOn contains preview technology that makes the best use of 3rd generation Intel Core processors on Linux operating system distributions by adding support for Intel Quick Sync Video. Using Intel Quick Sync Video can double transcoding speeds over 2nd generation Intel Core processors by moving video-conversion tasks to dedicated media processing space. This article describes how to set up Quick Sync accelerated encoding for Wowza server software on the following supported Linux distributions:
  • Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit (desktop and server) instructions
  • SUSE Linux SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 with Service Pack 2 for 64-bit instructions

  • Notes:
  • Quick Sync accelerated encoding on these Linux distributions is only supported on the following Wowza® software versions:
  • Wowza Streaming Engine™ 4.0 or later
  • Wowza Media Server® version 3.5.0 or later

  • LibDRM library version 2.4.45 should be used: Download libdrm-2.4.45.tar.gz

  • Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit (desktop and server) instructions


    After the Linux OS is installed, do the following:
  • Prepare the computer by entering the following command in a terminal window:
    Code:
    apt-get upgrade

  • Restart the computer and then enter the command that matches your hardware specification in a terminal window: Intel Xeon E3-1285 v3/4th Generation Intel Core
    Code:
    add-apt-repository ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa
    apt-get update
    apt-get install linux-headers-3.8.0-23 linux-headers-3.8.0-23-generic linux-image-3.8.0-23-generic --fix-missing

    Intel Xeon E3-1285 v2/3rd Generation Intel Core
    Code:
    add-apt-repository ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa
    apt-get update
    apt-get install linux-headers-3.2.0-41 linux-headers-3.2.0-41-generic linux-image-3.2.0-41-generic --fix-missing

  • Download the driver package for Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit (desktop and server): intel-linux-media_ubuntu_16.2.12396_64bit.zip
  • Extract the files from the driver package and then run the install_media.sh script (./install_media.sh) in the package as root user. The script will present you with a question that you should answer as follows:
