[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 0/2] avcodec: metadata for hardware backed decoders

[Philip Langdale]

We have a number of hardware backed implementations in the codebase
that are done as full decoders instead of HWAccels for various
reasons. These decoders cannot be discovered today, and clients
which care end up needing to hardcode their names. It would be
helpful to provide a discovery mechanism.
