Description of problem or question:
Why doesn't HB support AMD HW decoding option
Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):
Windows 10
I wonder why HB support Intel QSV decoding while AMDs counterpart is missing. Is it because of the lack of developer ressources or maybe patent problems?
Thanks in advance

Re: AMD HW Decoding?
I know and it work's well. But I was asking for GPU hw accel. decoding.
Re: AMD HW Decoding?
Ah. sorry mis-read that. There are no plans to add this. Hardware decoding is problematic at the best of times. We have Intel QuickSync because we have engineers at Intel Contributing it.
HandBrake is maintained by only a few developers contributing a few hours here and there. So there are a lot of things we just haven't got round to and a lot of things we won't do to keep the scope smaller to make things easier to manage.
