    <title>Introduction to gstreamer-vaapi</title>

    <para>
      The <application>gstreamer-vaapi</application> package contains a
      <application>gstreamer</application> plugin for hardware accelerated
      video decode/encode for the prevailing coding standards today (MPEG-2,
      MPEG-4 ASP/H.263, MPEG-4 AVC/H.264, and VC-1/VMW3).
    </para>

    <note>
      <para>
        On systems without hardware acceleration (notably virtual machines
        under <xref linkend="qemu"/>), this package may cause the X server
        to crash. The BLFS team recommends not to install this package in
        this case.
