+ <h3 id="vk2023">May 31st, 2023, Vulkan decoding</h3>
+ <p>
+ Recently, Vulkan-powered decoding hardware acceleration code was merged
into the codebase.
+ This is the first vendor-generic and platform-generic decode acceleration
API, enabling the
+ same code to be used on multiple platforms, with very minimal overhead.
+ This is also the first multi-threaded hardware decoding API, and our code
makes full use of this,
+ saturating all available decode engines the hardware exposes.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Those wishing to test the code can consult our
+ <a href="https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/HWAccelIntro#Vulkan";>documentation
page</a>.
+ For those who would like to integrate FFmpeg's Vulkan code to demux,
parse, decode, and receive
+ a VkImage to present or manipulate, documentation and examples are
available in our source tree.
+ <p>
+ </p>
+ As this is also the first practical implementation of the specifications,
bugs may be present,
+ particularly in drivers, and, although passing verification, the
implementation itself.
+ </p>
Patch attached.
