OneVPL is the successors of MSDK and will support more encode and decode cases. This is a library from Intel which can be installed as part of Intel oneAPI Video Processing Library (OneVPL). The hardware can be accessed through a number of different APIs: (Each new platform supports a superset of the capabilities of the previous platform. VP9 profile 2 decode VP9, H.265 Main10 encode. What params should I use to try and get the same WAV format as the original? Mind you, -ar, -ac and bits aren't the important parts.'Intel Quick Sync Video' is the marketing name for a set of hardware features available inside many Intel GPUs. ffprobe shows that the ffmpeg version has some Metadata which the original doesn't have. The ffmpeg version does not play in the game. So why not ffmpeg? Am I using the wrong codec or params? I took an original sound file from the game and performed the following: ffmpeg -i 'orig_thrmlpu2.wav' -f wav -acodec pcm_s16le -ar 22050 -ac 1 'ffmpeg_thrmlpu2.wav' But it can play a WAV file created by Audacity, GoldWave or ModPlug Tracker to name a few. Speculation was that it added something extra to header or something. Except for that if one were to create a WAV file using MS Sound Recorder, Jedi Knight could not play it. Jedi Knight accepts plain old PCM WAV files of various ranges, from 5khz to 96khz, 8 and 16 bit, mono and stereo. The problem I'm having is that ffmpeg seems to be doing something that does so that Jedi Knight can't play the sound file. I'm looking to batch convert a number of files to audio files using ffmpeg for a game called Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II.
