The current upstream effort is tracked at https://chromium- review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/532294. However it doesn't seem to be getting much traction. I am reluctant to distro-patching as it's a rather large patch that often gets outdated with new chromium versions, with non-trivial conflicts to solve that sometimes involve re- architecting.
I am in the process of transitioning to snaps as the official way of getting chromium updates on Ubuntu. Once that's complete the maintenance burden will be largely alleviated and I might consider maintaining that patch. -- 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: Chromium does not use the GPU to decode videos 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
