- 5e92cb50239222b 3y agoPlease don't spread misinformation. AMD GPUs have had full 3d acceleration out of the box for several years now. I use Linux exclusively and had great performance in 3D games on R9 380, RX 570, and RX 580, all using the mainline (obviously FOSS) driver.
- trelane 3y agoYep, and the docs are freely available. https://gpuopen.com/amd-isa-documentation/ https://gpuopen.com/amd-isa-documentation/ for AMD. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/graphics-for-linux/developer-reference/1-0/discrete-gpu.html https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/graphics-for-li... for Intel
- Gordonjcp 3y agoNo, it's got useless crippled acceleration that's only suitable for games. You can't use them for video.
- anonbanker 3y agoVulkan Video is literally supported in ffmpeg.
- Gordonjcp 3y agoOkay, let me know how you get on editing video in ffmpeg. ffmpeg is one very small but important part of a complex chain.
- itsboring 3y agoWow, software 3D rendering must have really gotten fast then. I play all my Steam games on Linux using the open source amdgpu driver. Or maybe I just imagined all those extra frames in RDR2. Someone should tell Valve that the Steam Deck could be a lot faster. Or, I guess the other option is that you’re spreading misinformation.
- Gordonjcp 3y agoGreat. Now try editing video.

- anonbanker 3y agoNot our fault your distro has outdated ffmpeg and mesa. Vulkan Video is nice.
- Gordonjcp 3y agoNothing uses Vulkan Video.
