 K900 | Generally | 19:30:22 |
| K900 | Except Intel who is being weird about it | 19:30:28 |
 Marie | mesa all the things | 19:30:31 |
 Blastboom Strice | Ugh I should really learn more about all these stuff | 19:30:40 |
| K900 | Even Nvidia has video decode/encode in Mesa now | 19:30:58 |
| K900 | Actually maybe just decode? But encode is coming | 19:31:07 |
| Blastboom Strice | I guess graphics and accelerators has been a pain for many people for a reason (reason being they're messy by the companies who make them) | 19:31:34 |

| Blastboom Strice | Ok actually thats drivers | 19:31:56 |
| K900 | GPUs are extremely cursed | 19:31:59 |
| K900 | That's normal\ | 19:32:02 |
| K900 | * That's normal | 19:32:03 |
| Blastboom Strice | My laptop has a discrete obscure gpu haha | 19:32:20 |
| K900 | "Obscure"? | 19:32:35 |
| Blastboom Strice | Managed to get it working after like 5months of using nixos | 19:32:38 |
| K900 | ...SiS? | 19:32:45 |

Download An old pic but should work | 19:33:33 |
 rosssmyth | One reason is that company's try to cut corners as much as possible since hardware accelerators are expensive and complicated. Which also usually ends up with them working fine in the 99% of cases (yt, netflix, ...) but then just not working in the 1% of cases. I used to do some work adjacent to that space and it was interesting | 19:33:34 |
| K900 | That's ... not very obscure? | 19:33:48 |
| K900 | That's just like | 19:33:50 |
| K900 | Normal old AMD | 19:33:52 |
| Blastboom Strice | Ah oh | 19:33:59 |
| K900 | I'm honestly surprised you had to "get it to work" even | 19:34:09 |
| K900 | It should be drop-in | 19:34:13 |
| Blastboom Strice | I feel like almost always had issues with software using it | 19:34:15 |
| Blastboom Strice | Even on windows | 19:34:18 |
| K900 | Oh on Windows definitely | 19:34:23 |
| Blastboom Strice | In reply to @k900:0upti.me
It should be drop-in Nope | 19:34:23 |
| Blastboom Strice | Maybe it does now | 19:34:28 |
| K900 | AMD Windows drivers used to be awful | 19:34:29 |
