H.264 encoding support is now available for the Video Acceleration API (VAAPI) and H.265 decoding support for OMX. The Mesa EGL interface also received official support for EGL_MESA_platform_surfaceless, along with various improvements for Android, X11/DRI3, and Wayland backends.

The list of cool new features implemented in today's Mesa 3D 13.0.0 Graphics Library release continues with OpenGL ES 3.2 support for Intel Skylake or later, OpenGL ES 3.1 support for Intel Haswell, Windows-DRI support to the GLX component, as well as KHR_no_config_context and EGL_KHR_debug support for EGL component. OpenGL ES 3.2 now available for Intel Skylake or later The good news continues with a Radeon Vulkan driver (RADV) for supported AMD Radeon GPUs by the AMDGPU kernel driver. That happens because of the pending Khronos CTS validation, but it will be fixed very soon in an upcoming point release, such as 13.0.1. While OpenGL 4.4/4.5 is there after upgrading to Mesa 13.0.0 stable, the drivers may show a lower version. The biggest new feature of Mesa 13.0.0 is, as expected, OpenGL 4.4 and OpenGL 4.5 capability. After being in development for the past month or so, during which it received a total of three RC (Release Candidate) builds, the final version of the highly-anticipated Mesa 13.0.0 3D Graphics Library is now available for GNU/Linux distributions.Īnd it looks like it's a major release that we must install on our Linux-powered computers if we want to play games, use various OpenGL apps, or just have the best possible graphics support for our AMD Radeon, Nvidia, or Intel GPUs.
