Mind, it's not all the kernel's fault. libva/vdpau support for GPUs aren't shipped with Fedora proper, and when it's installed, GStreamer/ clutter-gst bugs keep breaking support in Videos, when it's not simply unsupported (in Wayland). The latter parts are all being worked on, but as long as it's an optional third-party download, we won't be seeing the improvements any time soon. _______________________________________________ desktop mailing list -- desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to desktop-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
