- shmerl 8y agoWebRender seems to be a prerequisite for it: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=563206 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=563206 > The GPU->GPU copy is only usable if you also have hardware accelerated composition. I thought WebRender is implementing such compositor.
- jhasse 8y agoIt is, but there was also another one in Firefox (you could enable it on Linux by setting layers.acceleration.force-enabled to true).
- shmerl 8y agoI suppose they didn't want to actively work on such features for something that's going to be deprecated. Since WebRender is their way forward, they can as well implement video acceleration together with it.
