For what it's worth, I have not seen any patch, not even an informal project announcement on the development mailing list.

I'm afraid this remains 100% vaporware at this point in time.

Any progress on this since January? We're getting close to get out of that "ever" time constraint.

Well, instructions are easy:
- Patch FFmpeg with H264_VAAPI patch
- Patch VLC with the vaapi patch from Mailing list or use VLC 1.1-git
- modify vlc-config with the va flags.
- compile.

Hi,

Is it possible to post here the full process in more detail, namely where to get the patches, how to apply them, etc?

Thanks
