That is an issue of Firefox, other software (mplayer, mpv) support VAAPI for many years. And with youtube-dl integration in mpv, why even play videos in Firefox?
- CameronNemo 5y agoNope not an issue in Firefox, an issue in VAAPI. Firefox supports VAAPI just fine, VAAPI does not support this hardware/API. Considering it is a new API, I am still holding out hope that support gets added.
