Description Enne Eziarc 2018-02-08 20:00:26 UTC
kmsgrab works like x11grab but accesses the DRM render node directly. The tradeoff is less features in exchange for being much more hardware encode friendly.

I guess this would go behind a new USE=drm?

    media-video/ffmpeg: Add libdrm useflag.
    
    Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/647046
    
    Unlike suggested in the bug, I find drm being confusing in ffmpeg case as this can be mistaken for Digital Right Management support.
    Since we do not have a drm/libdrm global useflag, I went for libdrm.
