Worked on modularizing and improving encoding efficiency within the intel/media-driver repository, focusing on relocating the AQM interface to the codec hardware base and refactoring AVC encoding logic to streamline interfaces and reduce code duplication. Addressed a critical bug in AV1 encoding within intel/vpl-gpu-rt by correcting the SetFH test logic to ensure proper capability handling for transform sets, refining the enabling logic based on hardware support and target usage. Utilized C++ and deep knowledge of video encoding and codec development to deliver maintainable, higher-quality encoding paths, laying groundwork for faster feature delivery and improved cross-platform encoding quality.
