[meta-freescale] Status of browser support.

[Björn Bosell]

Hi,


We eventually went a completely different route and patched the chromium within qtwebengine with something based on the chromium-imx repo reworked to apply to chromium 65.


Now I apologize beforehand because I do not know if this is the correct place to ask these questions.


Where would be the best place to contribute these changes?

Also what would be the best way?


Thanks,

Bjorn

Subject: Status of browser support.


Hi,


We are currently in the process of upgrading from Fido to some later version of yocto and are trying to assess the current status of hardware acceleration in web browsers.

Our application needs accelerated video playback from the browser. Currently we are running chromium 40 on wayland and it is working sort of ok.


Is there any browser (qtwebengine, firefox, chromium, other?) that supports accelerated video playback out of the box today?

Or are there other alternatives anyone could point us towards?


Thanks,

Bjorn
