it’s not hardware accelerated.
i was mistaken by the low CPU due to low bandwidth of the video i played back.
If i got it right, Video 4 Linux (v4l) video acceleration is included in PipeWire.
PipeWire is currently the default in Kodi (when you compile).
Debian Wiki to PipeWire:
https://web.archive.org/web/20230422070304/https://wiki.debian.org/PipeWire
in PureOS we have:
purism@pureos:~/kodi$ sudo apt list --installed ‘pipewire’
Listing… Done
libpipewire-0.3-0/byzantium,now 0.3.19-4 arm64 [installed,automatic]
i tried to make PipeWire 0.3.19 work following the recommendations from above link…
with no luck! i.e. no sound with PipeWire on Pulseaudio!
when do we get PipeWire 0.3.65 in PureOS?
