Description:
As requested here: https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/5219#issuecomment-643661306
I'm wondering if we can get hardware acceleration for modern AMD GPUs in chromium (build_options_default)? It seems pretty common & very useful.
Thanks!

Have you verified it using the method of looking in about:media-internals?
I tried many times and I still see the non-hardware-accelerated codec being used for Vimeo & YouTube videos (VpxVideoDecoder).

Comment:
As far as I know, the VAAPI build option is no longer required in any way. If the hw accel isn't working correctly / being detected, that's a separate issue.

Such a pain to debug chromium. Perhaps Void should consider replacing chromium with its own custom build of ungoogled-chromium... Wouldn't that be truer to the FOSS message anyway (considering how much tracking comes with chromium)?

Just install **enhanced-h264ify** chromium extension, block everything except h264 and it will work like a charm (if you use Xorg, not Wayland). For Nvidia there's https://github.com/xtknight/vdpau-va-driver-vp9

I use Xorg. I did try this extension, but it did not change the fact:
"If it says FFmpegVideoDecoder or VpxVideoDecoder, accelerated video decoding is not working"
https://www.linuxuprising.com/2018/08/how-to-enable-hardware-accelerated.html
about:media-internals:
```
"Failed to initialize DecryptingVideoDecoder"
"Failed to initialize MojoVideoDecoder"
"Failed to initialize VpxVideoDecoder"
"Failed to initialize Dav1dVideoDecoder"
kIsVideoDecryptingDemuxerStream | false
kVideoDecoderName | "FFmpegVideoDecoder"
```

@dm17 what GPU do you have?
Did you read this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Hardware_video_acceleration ?

@Logarithmus Yes, read that. I have Polaris 20 (an AMD card with some of the best support in Linux).

How does this in any way make any sense to you, how would that reduce any work instead of adding more work?
Chromium is FOSS, chromium is the maintained browser, its FOSS there is not more or less FOSS.
Stop spamming us with ungoogled chromium stuff, I've had enough of it, we said no and you have to accept it.

Stop spamming us with ungoogled chromium stuff, I've had enough of it, we said no not once but in multiple different threads and you have to accept it.
