The libVa library provides the VA-API implementation and is put out under an open-source MIT license while the only driver implementing VA-API support is the Poulsbo video driver. The Intel Poulsbo graphics driver is closed-source while their DRM kernel driver is open-source. Poulsbo is the code-name for Intel's MID (Mobile Internet Device) chipset that is used in conjunction with the Silverthorne Atom processors. However, the Poulsbo chipset is used on very few netbooks and the MIDs with these chipsets are not very common (at least not in the US). One system that does use this chipset is the Dell Inspiron Mini 12. _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
