It works wonders for playing HDTV streams from mythtv. On a somewhat modern Intel CPU. Without it, HDTV is generally impossible. YMMV. More modern CPUs might be better, dunno. A lot of HPC is done on GPUs these days, so they're good for something.
I got lost trying to figure out what "it" is. Is it vaapi? If so, is it enough simply to have vaapi-tools installed?
"it" = video hardware acceleration. Yes, if you have Intel Graphics, vaapi-tools should be enough. Then run vainfo from a konsole, and it'll tell you. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (21.2°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
