Core Hardware Acceleration Units

The RK3576 chip integrates three key hardware acceleration units, each responsible for different stages of video processing:

  • VPU (Video Processing Unit): Responsible for video decoding (e.g., H.264 hardware decoding); the core element mppvideodec invokes this unit.

  • RGA (Image Acceleration Unit): Responsible for image scaling and format conversion (e.g., NV12→RGBA); can be enabled via mppvideodec parameters.

  • GPU (Graphics Processing Unit): Responsible for video rendering and multi-frame compositing (e.g., glvideomixer compositing); managed by the Panfrost driver.
