Hi,

This check is totally useless beyond being wrong. Never use driverimplementation details from an application. If you really want to querythe driver string, use vaQueryVendorString() after having initialized aVA-API driver. Besides, this check just disabled any other driver (Intel,ATI, etc.).

This awful hack is not guaranteed to work. Besides, the fallback mechanismalready takes place gracefully in gtk_canvas.cpp.


Regards,
Gwenole.
