Description ViliusSutkus89 2013-06-27 13:24:42 UTC

Some radeons can use VDPAU (UVD2) and VAAPI has a backend for this.
Currently there's a need to emerge x11-libs/libva-vdpau-driver separately.
This 2 line fix would pull it in as a dependency.

Possibly it would be better to replace video_cards_nvidia? with vdpau? in PDEPEND.

yep, added the vdpau? () dep; that's something i've been wanting to do but forgot.
not sure about video_cards_radeon: I'd like to keep the video_cards_nvidia? () because its the only way to use libva with nvidia drivers. feel free to add video_cards_radeon? () if you think its useful for the same reason.
