As neither Chrome/Chromium or Firefox has any real interest in Linux support can we get Ubuntu to apply the patch? The patch has existed for 5 years already.
Even a partial solution where its built in but you still have to enable it in config would be fine. Having to hunt down a ppa to get working video in 2019 on Linux is absurd. Otherwise users would be much better off moving to another distro that supports it such as Arch, Fedora, etc as noted above. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1424201 Title: Web browsers lacking hardware-accelerated video decoding To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/chromium-browser/+bug/1424201/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
