    You added in one too many "A"'s.

      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.

        Ok then ignore OpenMAX but IHVs should start to invent a common solution. It is possible to provide a common API f?r different H/W (see DXVA) - should also be possible to invent a platform independent variant.

          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

                  Same is often said about X11 and Xorg, yet you are listed as X.org Developer here.
                  You are advocating this: https://xkcd.com/927/

                  If OpenMAX has flaws, work on OpenMAX 2.0 with others from Khronos.
