Description

Media applications on i965-era Intel graphics can use a VDPAU driver backed by OpenGL and VA-API.

This package is useful for compatibility cases where software expects VDPAU but the system uses Intel VA-API-style acceleration. It does not add a video player; it provides a driver bridge for other applications.

Playback quality and acceleration depend on GPU generation, Mesa, codec support, and application settings. Test with actual video workloads.
