[vlc-devel] [PATCH v3 00/14] libvlc: Disable GPU rendering/Select hardware decoder

[Steve Lhomme]

This patchset adds new APIs to select the hardware decoder engine to use,
independently of the rendering method selected. It also applies to other forms
or embedded rendering like when providing a HWND.

Changes since v2:
- the default "vout-cb-type" is stored in libvlc, like the "window" variable.
- libvlc_video_engine_none has been renamed libvlc_video_engine_disable
- when disabling the output callbacks, the "window" variable is reset
- "vout-cb-type" is never inherited
- "dec-dev" is not forced anymore when setting a window host
- "dec-dev" is not forced anymore when outputting to memory
