True. Neither the AMF nor libmfx drivers are really any better, though they don't have the same silly hoops for the user to jump through (they have different ones, though, especially for libmfx). On the other hand, the open VAAPI and VDPAU drivers are to some degree, and V4L2 could be (I'm unsure on V4L2, I've never investigated the actual implementations behind any of them). - Mark _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
