Think this will prompt Adobe to get off their ass and fix their Flash?

VDPAU VC-1/H.264 Support

The new NVidia VDPAU API supports decoding VC-1 and H.264 in hardware. Implement support for determining at runtime if a card is capable of leveraging this api, and offload the decoding to the GPU.
NOTE: A G98 nvidia card is required to implement the vc-1 decoder and will need to be provided by the student.

This shouldn't actually be all that hard with moonlight relying on ffmpeg which already has vdpau support.

I would be more interested in AMD getting off their ass and fix their Linux video acceleration

Probably the same day that all the xorg developers can agree on a steady roadmap.

Moonlight is a conspiracy, never touch it
