Platform decoders are in all likelihood strictly less secure than software decoders. Software decoders will run in a user-space sandboxed within their respective application. Platform decoders will run in a more privileged system service, with direct access to a kernel driver in EL1, through that to the firmware running on the video DSP. More performant and energy-efficient. But also way way less secure. The only viewpoint whence this is more secure, is the content publisher's: this model enables DRM with hardware pass-through (but that does not even apply if you use FFmpeg as the front end). -- 雷米‧德尼-库尔蒙 http://www.remlab.net/ _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
