# Intel Iris Graphics and VA-API
Check currently installed drivers:
```
$ wajig list-installed | grep intel-media
intel-media-va-driver:amd64
intel-media-va-driver:i386
```

Install the non-free driver:
```
sudo apt install intel-media-va-driver-non-free
```

Reboot.

## OBS
Mission: Get good OBS recording output on my {ref}`tuxedo-infinitybook-s14`.

To use [VAAPI][] in OBS follow these steps:

- File > Settings > Output
- Output Mode: Advanced
- Recording
- Encoder: FFMPEG VAAPI

[VAAPI]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_Acceleration_API

This of course presumes that a the encoder is present, but on my system it was not.
Thus I had to install non free software.
