Re: Firefox Hardware acceleration & VA-API how-to
Hello,
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1742229 states that
NVIDIA's NVDecod can be used with VA-API.
No idea what it actually means but I'll try to uplift that to Firefox 95.

I appreciate the effort to document ways to improve things. However:

This doesn't really help at all. Is it supposed to be funny, or is it
just cynical resignation?
I mean, even if I *could* throw a couple hundred bucks out the window
to replace a perfectly working NVidia hardware, most places don't even
seem to have AMD graphics cards in stock right now. Does that just
mean "tough luck" for users like me?
