Hardware accelerated video decode/encode (VA-API) support is beginning to land in #OpenBSD -current.
libva has been integrated into xenocara with the Intel userland drivers in the ports tree. AMD requires Mesa support, hence the inclusion in base.
A number of ports will be adjusted to enable VA-API support over time, as they are tested.
rsadowski@ modified xenocara.lib/libva/*: Merge libva 2.22.0Libva is an implementation for VA-API (Video Acceleration API).
VA-API is an open-source library and API specification, which provides access to graphics hardware acceleration capabilities for video processing.
It consists of a main library and driver-specific acceleration backends for each supported hardware vendor.

This work was created during the c2k24. With a lot of help and feedback from matthieu@, tb@, and martijn@.
AMD drivers tested by landry@, martijn@, kn@, op@ and a few more Intel driver tested by matthieu@ and me.
The Intel drivers can find in ports graphics/intel-media-driver and graphics/intel-vaapi-driver. (Depending on your hw)
The ports will be adjusted over time.
Everyone has reported fantastic performance results in Firefox or mpv(1).
OK matthieu@
Many thanks to @sizeofvoid for hacking on this at #c2k24!
