-Description: XvBA-based backend for VA API
- Video decode driver for ATI/AMD chipsets (XvBA implementation).
+Description: XvBA-based backend for VA API (AMD fglrx implementation)
+ X-Video Bitstream Acceleration (XvBA), designed by AMD for its ATI/AMD Radeon
+ GPU, is a future extension of the X video extension (Xv) for the X Window
+ System on Linux operating-systems. XvBA API allows video programs to offload
+ portions of the video decoding process to the GPU video-hardware. Currently,
+ the portions designed to be offloaded by XvBA onto the GPU are motion
+ compensation (mo comp) and inverse discrete cosine transform (iDCT), and VLD
+ (Variable-Length Decoding) for MPEG-2, MPEG-4 AVC (H.264) and VC-1 encoded
+ video.
  .
- This VA driver provides GPU video decoding for ATI/AMD chipsets.
+ This driver only works with the proprietary fglrx driver from AMD.
