How is hardware acceleration and Widevine support right now? I use Windows 10 (IOT fwiw) largely because I use MS Office and want smooth videos on the browser.

- haswell 3y agoGood enough that I haven’t had to think about it since switching back. With that said, I don’t have specific knowledge of any edge cases where that might be a problem. I’m using an Nvidia RTX 3000 series with 1st party drivers and Firefox for my browser.

- NekkoDroid 3y agoThere are Linux builds with widevine IIRC, but those aren't the "from source builds" from the distros. I also recently saw a video of someone running PowerPoint via Wine. Dunno what they did or if it was a plain Wine build, but it was running and it did do stuff.
- user_7832 3y agoThanks a lot, I thought (modern) MS Office didn't work though wine because it uses a lot of funky registry things?
