[mythtv-users] Possible XvBA support soon?

[Andrew Barbaccia]

All this talk about VDPAU makes me want to buy an nVidia card. I was gonna
do it this week but then this article posted:
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=xorg_vdpau_vaapi&num=1

about VA-API using VDPAU in the backend. Also theres a mention of work going
on to support an XvBA backend as well.

Maybe someone with some more developing experience can help answer this:

Do you think MythTV will switch to interfacing with the VA-API layer rather
than supporting each driver's API individually (VDPAU, XvBA, etc)?

I know VA-API hasn't had much steam but if XvBA remains undocumented it
seems that VA-API would be the only way to take advantage of it...

Just some thoughts for a tuesday morning.
