DXVA is part of a complicated beast, DXVA doesn't itself provide software fallback. DXVA is part of the MFT process which decides whether or not it can...

Im not familiar with how GPU's are wired up, so I cannot comment on the specifics of that side, but any gpu that;
A) Has a vulkan driver
B)...

[Quackdoc]

because it's not applicable here, this is just an easy dirty way to get hardware accelerated video decode/encode in an already existing Vulkan app, or...

[Quackdoc]

Whether an app is using GPU encode/decode or software is irrelevant to the vulkan interface from my understanding. choosing between software vs hardware...

[Quackdoc]

They use vulkan for rendering the onscreen image. not for encode/decode...

[Quackdoc]

This looks really cool. interesting to see what comes of it

[Quackdoc]

correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding of this is that it's just a gateway using Vulkan two GPUs pre-existing video engine. I do not believe this...

[Quackdoc]

The Directx to vulkan needs to happen at some point between execution and VM, the issue is that virtio-gpu is a gateway for Opengl (and soon to be Vulkan)...

[Quackdoc]

As stated in another post on the forum, virtio-gpu DOES have a WDDM driver being worked on (I think there is a functional to some degree build in redhat's...

[Quackdoc]

Ahh AMD, always so far behind... oh well, still better than the other options. just need a DLSS competitior and actually decent RT preformance

[Quackdoc]

Which is why I said sadly, I know at some point, it was planned, though if you really need to I believe at one point, I had a multi monitor setup working,...

[Quackdoc]

I disagree with point 5. It could be said I am arguing semantics, but the distinction is important, You should assume that it CAN, not that it IS. That...

[Quackdoc]

In therory Yes it is possible, and I'd go so far as to argue maybe even likely. as I've said in another thread, while a Virgl GPU driver for windows is...

[Quackdoc]

virgl + spice locally works when specifying socket. but thats it I believe sadly...

[Quackdoc]

Sure they might be able to, but the amount of difficulty would be so pointless. OpenGL IS inherently limited in comparison to vulkan, which is why well...

[Quackdoc]

That and really old linux games is about all it is useful for though, of course it is useful to a degree. but to what degree? I can't think of very many...

[Quackdoc]

To be fair, there was little reason to do so in the first place. Virgl renderer is cool and all, but that is about it. gl preformance wasn't really good...

[Quackdoc]

This makes me happy. this will hopefully transfer to really any mesa compatible guest and host. im excited to finally have a good solution for android...

The biggest issue with gaming on linux for most people is the hassle. very few people want to dual boot their PC just to play multiplayer, when linux...

ah yes being unable to do what the 99% can do makes you elite, I can't believe I didn't know before now....
