The latter happens with both nvidia and AMD Mesa drivers. Additionally, EGL vaapi interop support can apparently only detected at runtime by actually using it. While hwdec_vaegl.c already does this, it would require initializing libva on _every_ system, which will cause libav to print an unpreventable bullshit message to the terminal. Try to counter these huge loads of bullshit by adding more fucking bullshit.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
