The driver is loaded by vainfo (and bypasses X11), but I also believe the original driver is also loaded by X11/Wayland and is still in memory when used via X11/Wayland. I also found that some video tools (default mplayer) do not use vaapi. And there are also ffmpeg versions in fedora/updates and a different one with more free but not quite free 3rd-party licensed in rpmfusion (ffmpeg-free vs ffmpeg) _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
