[mythtv-users] AMD hardware accelerated video via opensource driver with VDPAU support?

[Richard Morton]

Within the next few hours AMD will be publishing open-source driver code
that exposes their Unified Video Decoder (UVD) engine on modern Radeon HD
graphics cards. This will finally allow open-source graphics drivers to
take advantage of hardware-accelerated video decoding.

...

This open-source AMD UVD support will allow for accelerated playback of
H.264, VC-1, and MPEG variants on the HD 4000 through HD 7000 series GPUs.
Interestingly, and to much pleasure, the UVD support is being exposed over
VDPAU.
