I mean on windows you have access to them through the AMD Media SDK.
So on windows you can boost h264 encoding by using the GPU on Linux I do not know a way to get data back from the gpu (I think VDPAU does not support this, only playback movies using VDPAU is supported I think).
I wonder what's needed to use VCE with AMD hardware i tried to read about it but there wasn't to much information to be found.. Do i need to compile mesa with

I don't know where this idea that we're only working on Polaris came from.

Yeah I know you can't answer that but let's face it, letting the world know about ZEN so early before release can't be good for sales at AMD.Test signature

Still getting that amdgpu screen wobble at resolutions 'above' 1080p. Think its time I give up on this amdgpu idea, clearly its not going to be useful any time soon.Last edited by theriddick; 23 May 2016, 04:18 PM.

Given how long it takes AMD to release drivers these days. People don't want to wait that long, considering NVIDIA releases driver updates monthly (sometimes multiple times) under linux and also has ultra fast card releases coming out next month (for AIB vendors).
You gotta remember people using AMD hardware have been waiting years for drivers to get to NVIDIA performance level, to no avail. Can't blame people for being impatient with AMD!
In saying that these AMDGPU-PRO drivers are working good for my 390x, there is some tearing and minor screen wobble in certain situations but its quite bearable. I will likely manually put in monitor resolution timings some time, pretty sure that is whats going wrong.
