And I think using the GPU to get hardware accelerated video decoding and encoding will not be available either.
Edit: But if I understand https://github.com/popcornmix/omxplayer/issues/714 correctly then you could do hardware accelerated decoding of HEVC on the CPU. I don’t know how the performance of that compares to the kind of video decoding that the GPU can do. That’s one of the things I’d like to see someone benchmark, or benchmark myself.
You can find some info about that here: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi_VC4
Some side notes: Mesa is quite hungry in performance and memory to compile shaders (to VC4 instructions), way more then the closed driver requires, thats why older versions of the Pi with less powerfull ARM cores couldn't really use this approach.
Source: I used to write custom user shaders in VC4 assembly to run on all Pis because the closed binary didn't offer OpenCL.
