From Phoronix:
Coming as a shock right now though is that AMD has finally opened up the X-Video Bitstream Acceleration interface. They have released an XvBA SDK (with a header file), sample code, and a sample library.
Now I have little deep knowledge of video cards and AMD’s Linux Video API but some of you might have more of an opinion about this. From what I hear it’s a bit too late to be releasing this.
Speak your mind...
