Description

Media applications can use Linux VA-API video acceleration through the development version of libva.

This library helps players, browsers, encoders, and video tools offload supported decoding or encoding work to compatible hardware. It does not add a media player; applications and drivers use it as the acceleration interface.

Hardware support depends on GPU, driver, codec, and application settings. Use the Git build only when development behavior is required.
