Description

While efficient video playback has long been possible in the embedded Linux world, desktop applications have been lagging behind other platforms. In the last years, and 2023/24 specifically, various developments made it possible to let the two worlds converge, offering various advantages for both.

The talk aims to give a short overview over recent developments in various components such as Wayland compositors, Gstreamer, Gnome, Gtk and Chromium that make video playback either more efficient - or efficient playback easier to use, including short demos. And, if time allows, give a short outlook what to expect regarding HDR playback.
