This should depend on bug 1616185 and bug 1619523 so it's easier to find
where the work happened.

That would certainly be Martin Stránský :)
Martin, do you want to claim the bounty? If you don't care about it / don't
need it

Hardware decoding is platform independent so it generally works under X11 as
it's implemented as Bug 1616185.
For whole playback chain see Bug 1610199 what's needed to
re-opening as a meta bug for VA-API implementation (including X11)

I'm glad to here that, but what about support for Firefox on X11? Is it
given up?

@grmat libplacebo is a renderer not a hardware decoder and is unfit to
be used in a browser. First thing we need dmabuf support so that we can
import decoded frames without copying them back to the system RAM and
then display it on the screen. If I understand it correctly this is the
toughest
Also, please note that this would save the users a few GWh of electric
energy and thus help protect the climate.

I've recently spent some time testing the implementations in various
browsers. Chromium implements VA-API but it's disabled in official
builds and fragile, breaking regularly. Webkit uses gstreamer-vaapi and
I've had quality issues with that using both Intel (wrong colours) and
AMD (blur)
Although this bug is only about decoding support, I'd like to leave a note
about the rendering: AFAIK rendering without any slow copies requires DMABUF
support, so processes can share resources on the GPU.
For the Wayland backend this about to land, see bug 1552590, quote:
> Wayland dmabuf
The dependency of this bug could probably changed from ogl-linux-beta to
bug 1491303, as webrender will replace all the old rendering
architecture and is already enabled on linux + intel in nightly.
