In short, I have tested the same SD-DV 576i and HDV 1080i video files as with SVT-AV1 (CPU based) in another resent post.

ffmpeg -hide_banner -hwaccel qsv -qsv_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -i dv01_07.dv -c:v av1_qsv -preset 4 dv01_07_av1_qsv_pr4.webm

fmpeg -hide_banner -hwaccel qsv -qsv_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -i hdv09_04.m2t -c:v av1_qsv -preset 4 hdv09_04.m2t_av1_qsv_pr4.webm

....skip

A warning output in both command lines is:

[vist#0:0/dvvideo @ 0x556a3f679100] WARNING: defaulting hwaccel_output_format to qsv for compatibility with old commandlines. This behaviour is DEPRECATED and will be removed in the future. Please explicitly set "-hwaccel_output_format qsv".

I tried to add this without success, so suggestion is welcome !?

I got this succesful now and avoided this warning, see command lines below

And possibly suggestions regarding the more seriously errors "Cannot allocate memory" that arised from the second command transcoding the hdv file?

well, you tried to add -extra_hw_frames 16 for example to your ffmpeg line? I think mpeg2 is not most popular input codec nowadays ....

Yes, thank you. This worked, see below (not unlike previous extending the bufsize for transcoding to mpg(2) for DVD)

.I attach also the "complete" ffmpeg output FWIW for both files, though skipping repeated error lines:

ffmpeg -hide_banner -hwaccel qsv -qsv_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -i dv01_07.dv -c:v av1_qsv -preset 4 dv01_07_av1_qsv_pr4.webm

frame= 2832 fps=2106 q=-0.0 Lsize= 10554KiB time=00:01:53.24 bitrate= 763.5kbits/s speed=84.2x

bitrate= 763.5kbits/s

sounds a bit low even for av1, so may be try to set -b to some higher value as suggested?

As suggested where? bitrate= 763.5kbits/s was for SD-DV which was viewable and not quite bad in my eyes.

av1_qsv @ 0x556a3f653040] Using the constant quantization parameter (CQP) by default. Please use the global_quality option and other options for a quality-based mode or the b option and other options for a bitrate-based mode if the default is not the desired choice.

To make a direct speed performance comparison between this GPU -Hwaccel AV1_QSV encoding and my previou CPU based SVT-AV1 encoding, I have used the same ffmpeg command line parameters and preset 4, and iterated similar bitrate and file size as follows:

SD-DV -> AV1
------------

SVT-AV1:
ffmpeg -hide_banner -i dv01_07.dv -c:v libsvtav1 -preset 4 -crf 35 -c:a libvorbis dv01_07_svt-av1_pr4.webm
frame= 2832 fps= 50 q=35.0 Lsize= 24159KiB time=00:01:53.24 bitrate=1747.7kbits/s speed= 2x

AV1_QSV:
ffmpeg -hide_banner -hwaccel_output_format qsv -qsv_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -i dv01_07.dv -c:v av1_qsv -preset 4 -b:v 1570k -crf 35 -c:a libvorbis dv01_07_av1_qsv_pr4_b1570k.webm
frame= 2832 fps=1891 q=-0.0 Lsize= 24166KiB time=00:01:53.24 bitrate=1748.2kbits/s speed=75.6x

That is, AV1_QSV DV transcoding speed 75.6x/2x ~ 38x or fps 1891/50 ~ 38 faster than corresponding with SVT-AV1.

File sizes:

389M    dv01_07.dv
24M    dv01_07_svt-av1_pr4.webm
24M    dv01_07_av1_qsv_pr4_b1557k.webm

HDV -> AV1
----------

SVT-AV1:
ffmpeg -hide_banner -i hdv09_04.m2t -c:v libsvtav1 -preset 4 -crf 35 -c:a libvorbis hdv09_04_svt-av1_pr4.webm

AV1_QSV:
ffmpeg -hide_banner -hwaccel_output_format qsv -qsv_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -extra_hw_frames 16 -i hdv09_04.m2t -c:v av1_qsv -preset 4 -b:v 3700k hdv09_04_av1_qsv_pr4_bv3700k.webm
frame= 5963 fps=482 q=-0.0 Lsize= 113271KiB time=00:03:58.77 bitrate=3886.1kbits/s speed=19.3x

That is, AV1_QSV HDV transcoding speed 19.3x/0.948x ~ 20x or fps 482/24 ~ 20 faster than corresponding with SVT-AV1

File sizes:

745M    hdv09_04.m2t
111M    hdv09_04_svt-av1_pr4.webm
111M    hdv09_04_av1_qsv_pr4_bv3700k.webm

------------------

FFmpeg output for the latest QSV_AV1 transcoding follows.
As seen the error messages messages are gone, though not quite clean as there are still some "disturbing" mpeg2video messages.
