    Phoronix: Microsoft Lands Direct3D 12 Video Encode Improvements For HEVC In Mesa 25.1

    While having missed the mark last week for making it into this quarter's Mesa 25.0 release, merged for Q2's Mesa 25.1 release by Microsoft engineers are some enhancements to the Direct3D 12 video encode capabilities...

        And yet, they STILL don't implement more than half of Vulkan. lol

            Microsoft thinking of making profits and vendor lock-ins, as usual.

                Anyway to see if we could make use of this through Wine? I know DXVK and VKD3D is good, but maybe this is gooder?

                  I've just gone to https://chatgpt.com/ and written:

                  Please, write a script with Michael Knight fighting evil plans from Microsoft with the aid of a treacherous blonde woman.

                  This is the answer 🙂:

                  Here’s a fun and dramatic script idea based on your request! It blends Michael Knight’s crime-fighting skills with a bit of intrigue and betrayal from a treacherous character. Let’s imagine it’s set in the 1980s, like the classic Knight Rider series, but with a modern twist.
                  INT. A DARK ROOM – NIGHT
                  The room is dimly lit, the hum of a computer in the background. At the center of the room, a sleek, futuristic monitor displays a series of codes rapidly scrolling. MICHAEL KNIGHT (wearing his iconic black leather jacket) steps in, his face filled with determination.
                  MICHAEL KNIGHT (softly, to himself) Looks like someone’s been cooking up some trouble…
                  A blonde woman, AMELIA (late 20s, wearing a sharp business suit), walks into the room. She’s got a confident stride, but her eyes hide something darker.
                  AMELIA (leaning against the wall, sly smile) What’s the matter, Michael? Don’t you like a challenge?
                  MICHAEL KNIGHT (eyes narrowing) I’m not here for games, Amelia. You know exactly why I’m here.
                  AMELIA (smirking) Oh, I know. But you’re too late. Microsoft’s latest operation is already in motion.
                  She motions toward the screen. On the monitor, a massive, complex algorithm runs. The name "MICROSOFT GLOBAL DOMINATION PLAN" is typed out in bold, red letters.
                  MICHAEL KNIGHT (surprised) This isn’t just about software updates, is it?
                  AMELIA (laughs, but with a hint of malice) You’re catching on, Knight. This is about control. They’re infiltrating every device, every system. From your phone to your car… (pauses, dramatically) even KITT.
                  MICHAEL KNIGHT (stern) Not KITT. You’ve crossed the line now, Amelia.
                  AMELIA (crossing her arms) I always loved a good fight, Michael. But you’ve been outplayed. You think you can stop them? You think you can stop me?
                  MICHAEL KNIGHT (squaring off) If anyone can, it’s me. And KITT. You can’t win, Amelia. Not this time.
                  Suddenly, KITT’s voice fills the room from an unseen speaker.
                  KITT (voice calm, cool) Michael, I’ve identified a security breach. The Microsoft algorithm is attempting to access my core systems. We need to act fast.
                  MICHAEL KNIGHT (to Amelia, sternly) You won’t get away with this.
                  AMELIA (chuckling darkly) You always say that. But the truth is, you're too late. The system is already in place. KITT, or whatever you call him, is just a machine. I have the power now.
                  She walks over to the control panel, pushing a few buttons. The entire building begins to shake, and the lights flicker as the computer systems lock into place. The plan is going live.
                  MICHAEL KNIGHT (gritting his teeth) I don’t think so. You forgot one thing, Amelia.
                  He pulls out a device from his jacket pocket—a small, sleek gadget. KITT’s voice speaks through it.
                  KITT (through the device) I’ve been monitoring her every move. It’s time, Michael.
                  Michael presses a button on the device. The monitors in the room blink, and Amelia’s smug smile fades as her systems begin to malfunction.
                  AMELIA (panicking) What did you do?!
                  MICHAEL KNIGHT (calmly) You underestimated me, and you underestimated KITT.
                  The room erupts into chaos as the systems crash. Amelia, now realizing she’s been outplayed, turns to face Michael, a look of disbelief on her face.
                  AMELIA (voice trembling) I…I was never on your side, Michael.
                  MICHAEL KNIGHT (stepping closer, serious) I know. But it’s not too late to change.
                  She hesitates, the weight of her choices sinking in. For a brief moment, there’s a flicker of doubt in her eyes.
                  AMELIA (slowly) Maybe… maybe you’re right.
                  Suddenly, the door bursts open, and a team of security agents storm in. Michael looks at Amelia one last time before turning to KITT.
                  MICHAEL KNIGHT (quietly, to KITT) Let’s finish this.
                  KITT’s engines roar to life as Michael heads for the exit, leaving Amelia standing in the chaos of her own betrayal.
