 ====== HW video decoding using VAAPI ====== ====== HW video decoding using VAAPI ======
 +
 +===== Update 2022-02-05 =====
 +As of now it seems that it is working with RDD enabled (tested with Firefox 96.0.3)
 +
 +Only these two options need to be set on my AMD machine to enable it.
 +<code>
 +gfx.x11-egl.force-enabled true
 +media.ffmpeg.vaapi.enabled true
 +</code>
 +
 +If needed disable av1/av01 codec if there is no HW decode support (YouTube may use this with 1080p otherwise)
 +This can of course affect media at other sites.
 +Note that av1/av01 is NOT the same as avc1

 +On Intel - check for Video engine activity

 +====== Using Telavox web based SIP phone with FF ======
 +===== Need to spoof the user-agent to include "Chrome" =====
 +
 +Install [[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-string-switcher/|User-Agent switcher]] \\

 +===== Now you also need to manually enable accepting calls =====
 +This is due to [[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/59131286/how-to-check-if-the-permission-to-access-microphone-has-been-rejected-by-the-use|microphone permisssion not queryable]]
 +
 +First make sure that you have allowed persistent access to microphone. \\
 +Then add the value registerSoftphone:"true" to the "Local Storage" for https://app.telavox.com
 +
 +If you then go to "Settings | Phone and audio" you should see that "Receive incoming calls" is now enabled.
