Re:FFmpeg 3.0 released on Wednesday February 17, 2016 @08:01AM (#11117535)
FFmpeg on Linux supports QSV either through the h264_qsv encoder or through some soon-to-be-merged va-api changes. On Mac I think you need to use the VideoToolbox API to access the GPU codec, and there is support for this in FFmpeg as well, but I haven't used it myself.

I think it is 10 for ad-hoc Hangouts, but you can raise it to 15 if you attach the meeting to a calendar invite.

Ah, that is my fault. We're using the fork quite actively, but need to revive that PR and improve the config settings.
I have this exact same problem. It's infuriating.

I bought an 'unlocked' iPhone at full price with the expectation that I would be able to use it with the carrier of my choice only to discover that I can't.

I was without any mobile data for nearly a month because the unlockit.co.nz "solution" for modifying APN settings wasn't working for me. I tried it again (randomly) a week ago and data came back. Still no MMS.

I guess I should have bought an Android device, but I was so disappointed by my previous phone (Droid 2) that I'm hesitant to purchase another non-Nexus device. I also develop iOS apps and need something to test them on.
