Google's Linux Video Acceleration API: VAVDA

OpenMAX is truly horrible and isn't really even 'one API'. Everyone implements similar but different things and you can't really use an OMX pipeline without having vendor-specific code. It's also a really terrible API and every implementation I've ever had to deal with has been shockingly buggy.

VAVDA is not yet supported on Pepper Flash for Linux
I spoke with Ami Fischman who is heading up the Google/Chromium team working on incorporating GPU accelerated video decoding into the Pepper Flash player for Chromeos. He confirmed that the vavda/vaapi accelerated decoding is not yet supported on Linux. He mentioned that because Chromeos is based on Linux, when they finish adding the feature for Chromeos they may take a stab at trying to get it working for Linux in general.
If this is a feature that you would like to see, please vote for it here: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/i...tail?id=137247

You are advocating this: https://xkcd.com/927/
If OpenMAX has flaws, work on OpenMAX 2.0 with others from Khronos.
