After the successful Appimage build with OneVPL for QSV on Alder
Lake (i7-12700/Arc A750), the time has come as proof of contest to
test if it also works on legacy Intel iGPU hardware.<br>
<br>
Extracted from the Fixed-function Quick Sync Video format support
for HEVC one should expect <br>

<ul>
<li>The Skylake microarchitecture implementation adds a full
fixed-function H.265/HEVC 8-bit 4:2:0 decoding and encoding
acceleration, hybrid and partial HEVC 10-bit decoding
acceleration,</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>The Kaby Lake, Coffee Lake, Whiskey Lake and Comet Lake
microarchitectures implementation adds full fixed-function
H.265/HEVC 10-bit 4:2:0 decoding and encoding acceleration,</li>
</ul>

Conclusion:<br>
-------------------<br>
The above simple tests show that the QSV enabled Appimage with
OneVPL works also on legacy and other Intel hardware.<br>
