This thing is going to be so DRM infested to make it unusable...
And then it's going to be shoved down our throats whether we want it or not.
And then on top of everything some company/troll will find that it still infringes some of their patents and people using it have to pay up.

But VP9 hardware has started to appear already, and it'll only go up from here.

Fun fact here, you know which hardware is among the first to have VP9 decoding? 4k TVs. Even more, it's mostly Samsung 4k TVs. Samsung is among the biggest players with H.265 patents in the MPEG-LA pool, and yet it's them who first put VP9 in their hardware. Fun world we have, when you get out of the narrow views you usually hold, don't you think?

Someone already *did* write a GPU decoder, Intel has one on Windows for many months now. It's *much* slower than software decoding. And less efficient too, as it stresses both the CPU and GPU, rather than just the CPU.Last edited by Gusar; 03 September 2015, 06:15 AM.
