Performance Metrics
Analyze Test Configuration:VP9 libvpx Encoding 1.8.2
Speed: Speed 5
OpenBenchmarking.org metrics for this test profile configuration based on 659 public samples since 4 January 2020 with the latest data as of 22 October 2020.
Below is an overview of the generalized performance for components where there is sufficient statistically significant data based upon user-uploaded results. It is important to keep in mind particularly in the Linux/open-source space there can be vastly different OS configurations, with this overview intended to offer just general guidance as to the performance expectations.
Based on OpenBenchmarking.org data, the selected test / test configuration (VP9 libvpx Encoding 1.8.2 - Speed: Speed 5) has an average run-time of 2 minutes. By default this test profile is set to run at least 3 times but may increase if the standard deviation exceeds pre-defined defaults or other calculations deem additional runs necessary for greater statistical accuracy of the result.
Based on public OpenBenchmarking.org results, the selected test / test configuration has an average standard deviation of 0.5%.

User Comments
input file is unsupported
The test is attempting to encode a .mov file but that is not valid input for vpxenc. It is treating it as raw yuv input. Try watching the output to verify this.
vpxenc needs a yuv or y4m file as input.

no neon on ARM systems
Currently the default vpxenc install on ARMv7 will use generic-gnu and not the armv7-linux-gcc which offers x2 more fps.
