Bay Trail and QSV
Posted: Thu Mar 06, 2014 3:23 pm
QSV has changed the way in which I use Handbrake and, frankly, I couldn't live without it anymore . However, thus far QSV required a fairly power-hungry core processor (or a laptop with a core processor). Luckily, this seems to be changing with the influx of a fair number of cheap Celeron and Pentium processors that all seem to have QSV, along with a (very) low TDP: http://ark.intel.com/search/advanced?s= ...

Would anyone know if these offer similar QSV performance as the Ivy Bridge/Haswell series? I have seen speeds up to 125-250fps on my laptop, and if these Bay Trail processors offer similar performance this would allow me to build a dedicated fanless box to happily convert Blu Rays to smaller 1080p H.264 (without having to wait a few days). However, most reports have been conflicting, where either software issues or the usage of Bay Trail processors that do not officially support QSV seem to skew the results.
Anyone with any experience on these?
