    I have a quesiton:
    It's great that nvidia provides an "open" video acceleration protocol. But is there a problem, that nvidia "owns" the protocol? Say open drivers implement vdpau and then nvidia changes the protocol? Or something like this?
    Thanks.

    does this mean that when vdpau comes to gallium, every single piece of graphics hardware with shader processors and a gallium driver will support vdpau?

    and can vdpau be ported to arm for use on arm compatible graphics processors with a gallium driver(if/when that happens)?

    this is some exciting stuff. gallium will totally change linux forever. gallium is such a brilliant idea!

    Good stuff, even for people on non-NVidia hardware. At least someone seems to care about video acceleration on Linux.
