Firefox from opensuse repo does not enable H264 hardware acceleration

That is incorect. These pages do not get updated properly. The packman repos are fully populated with the (Mesa) packages for Leap 16.0

…deleted. Funky forum software.

Hello,

the versions of vaapitest located in
/var/lib/flatpak/app/org.mozilla.firefox/x86_64/
and
/usr/lib64/firefox/

returns exactly the same results :

VAAPI_SUPPORTED
TRUE
VAAPI_HWCODECS
16240

but only the flatpak version seems to support H264 hardware decoding

Hello,

i’ve downgraded FFMPEG8 from LEAP repo to FFMPEG7 from PACKMAN repo

all is working fine , H264 HW decoding works like a charm.

I hope this will help others

Thanks you all
