VA-API Wrapper

This library provides high-level wrappers around VA-API (libva), the Video Acceleration API used by Linux, Android, and BSD systems.

It loads libva at runtime, so there is no build-time dependency on it. This matches the behavior typically expected of applications: if no hardware acceleration is available, they should fall back to software decoding.

Features

• Blatantly unsound API
• Completely unmaintained (developed only for my own personal amusement)
• Exposes almost none of the features VA-API has
• Crashes your program with a segfault when you have an AMD GPU
• Might even crash the entire graphics driver when you have an AMD GPU
• Really, you should probably not even read this README if you're on AMD

This crate has been renamed to fev.
