41 <para>
42 The <application>libva</application> package contains a library which
43 provides access to hardware accelerated video processing, using hardware
44 to accelerate video processing in order to offload the central
45 processing unit (CPU) to decode and encode compressed digital video. The VA
46 API video decode/encode interface is platform and window system
47 independent targeted at Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in the X
48 Window System however it can potentially also be used with direct
49 framebuffer and graphics sub-systems for video output. Accelerated
50 processing includes support for video decoding, video encoding,
51 subpicture blending, and rendering.

153 If you are reinstalling this package, you will need
154 to remove the older versions of the libraries. These are in the
155 form of libva*.so.1 and any symbolic links pointing to them. In
156 addition, any packages that use these files need to be rebuilt.
