wow, nice!


rxt also posted a patch trying to port mplayer-vaapi back to mplayer

did you see it? from october:

http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-dev-eng/2015-October/073163.html

it needs testing. apparently you are the one to ask about testing! :)


did you look at mpv's vaapi code for answers to any of your questions?
mpv is based on mplayer, although a lot of code has been changed.

https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/video/out/vo_vaapi.c

looks like mpv used the vaapi code from mplayer-vaapi project:

probably my mail isnt what you were expecting...
