Estimating Percent of Users That Will Have Hardware Support for h265/hevc #668

Closed seflless closed 1 year ago

seflless commented 1 year ago

I'm trying to understand which and how many users will and won't have hardware support for hevc/h265. Does anyone have any more information on which desktop Windows/macOS/Chrome OS consumer devices are likely to have hardware support or not?

All macOS users will have support. Most Windows users will too. Most ChromeOS users will not. If you have a launched product with active users, I recommend querying isConfigSupported to see the metrics for your user base.

In any case this isn't an issue, so closing.

Thanks Dale! Want to follow best practices, so where would you recommend asking questions like this next time? I assumed others would have similar questions.

I think the discussions section instead of issues would be appropriate.
