HardwareVideoAcceleration - Debian Wiki

With modern graphics cards, it's often possible to offload the jobs of video encoding and decoding to them from the CPU in order to reduce power usage and make more resources available to the rest of the system. Compared to CPUs, GPUs are much more efficient at the job. However, both hardware as well as software support are required for this offloading, and the latter in particular (at least ...

Compiling Mesa 22.2 with codec support (the easy way) - Community contributions - EndeavourOS

EDIT: Looks like the Arch maintainers have included the necessary build flags so this wont be necessary, but this is still useful as a basic guide to easily building mesa with additional flags This year Mesa made some changes to 22.2 that effectively removes hardware encode/decode support from AMD and Intel GPUs/ Mesa in the default configuration. This means there is a high chance that unless ...

Hardware acceleration for AVC/HEVC/VC-1 in Mesa (required for AMD graphics) - Feature Request - Manjaro Linux Forum

Since the end of 2022, hardware acceleration for h264, h265 and VC1 within mesa has been removed: This essentially breaks any hardware acceleration for these codecs when using AMD graphics. It impacts any software relying on vaapi or vdpau to decode or encode these formats, including software such as firefox, ffmpeg, mpv and so on, when running AMD graphics hardware. Both my HTPC and laptop ...

Fedora Linux Disabling Mesa's H.264 / H.265 / VC1 VA-API Support Over Legal Concerns - Phoronix

Last week the change to drop that support from their Mesa VA-API build was made on the basis of: "Drop codecs. We don't have legal approval for this. Previously it was accidentally shipped." Red Hat's David Airlie commented on this discussion thread: This was an oversight being enabled prior to this, and I think we have to remove it from older Fedora as well. Fedora cannot ship anything that causes the OS to provide an API which exposes patent algorithms. The patent licensing around H264/H265 ...
