Lots of hardware acceleration:

- Intel QSV-accelerated MJPEG encoding

- NVIDIA NVDEC-accelerated H.264, HEVC, MJPEG, MPEG-1/2/4, VC1, VP8/9 hwaccel decoding

- Intel QSV-accelerated overlay filter

- OpenCL overlay filter

- VAAPI MJPEG and VP8 decoding

- AMD AMF H.264 and HEVC encoders

- VideoToolbox HEVC encoder and hwaccel

- VAAPI-accelerated ProcAmp (color balance), denoise and sharpness filters

There's Vulkan stuff coming up as well http://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2018-April/228571.h...

Confused, as I've been using ffmpeg for HEVC NVDEC already...

This is a release and the Changelog is reporting changes relative to the last release (3.4 series). HEVC NVDEC was added to the tree in Nov '17 and 3.4 was branched off in Oct.

I've been using for encoding. I did have to download the Nvidia CUDA SDK to patch it in though

Is QSV working on Linux without X server running?
