Intel® Quick Sync Video

Create, edit, and share video in a flash

Intel® Quick Sync Video makes fast work of creating, editing, synchronizing, and sharing your videos—at home and online.

What is Intel® Quick Sync Video?

Intel Quick Sync Video, built right into the 3rd generation Intel® Core™ processor, uses dedicated media processing to make video creation and conversion faster and easier. With it you can create DVDs or Blu-ray* discs, create and edit 3D videos, convert 2D video files into 3D, and convert video for your portable media player and for upload to your favorite social networking sites—all in a flash.

HD Video Conversion Speed

Intel 3rd generation PCs with Intel Quick Sync Video can convert HD video content for a handheld device twice as fast as PCs based on Intel 2nd generation processors.12 Instead of you waiting for your video, your video is waiting for you.

Video is mainstream

PC users continue to create and consume more video content than ever.3 However, working with video content and converting it for different uses can be time-consuming. Intel Quick Sync Video reduces the wait time significantly.

How it works

Video content is typically compressed and encoded into a specific format when it is stored on hard drives, DVDs, camcorders, cell phones, or broadcast media. When you want to play that content, burn it onto a DVD or Blu-ray* disc, or copy it to your phone, it must first be decoded and then re-encoded in a new format, a resource- and time-intensive process. Intel Quick Sync Video accelerates decoding and encoding for a significantly faster conversion time, while also enabling the processor to complete other tasks, improving overall PC performance.
