Details
Build VAAPI and VDPAU backends, so ports using system ffmpeg can take advantage of GPU-assisted decoding. Also, propagate defaults to consumers. Hardware acceleration in video players tends to be more reliable than, say, in browsers. However, it's often still disabled by default or can be force-disabled if not. This may help reduce the number of bundlers.

Elsewhere the impact on consumers is less clear but if they already depend on ffmpeg this often leads to "why not?". |
