Sorry, it really is not clear, at least not to me. If you look at
the other posts in this thread, you will see that I am not the only
one.

So please forgive my ignorance and kindly explain what you mean by
"master branches of Community". In order to port anything, I need to
know 1) the git repositories and 2) the specific commits.

Is there a tag or sha that you can name which contains webkit-gtk with
imx6 HW acceleration support?

Good for them. I would also like to see it working. Does this mean I
will have to order commercial support from you?

Well, the Qt5 video player does work, but that is something totally
different, as Carlos pointed out.

Thanks,
Richard
