Firefox development team has merged code to enable video decoding via the Vulkan
API. The change integrates Vulkan video extensions into the browser's media
pipeline. It allows hardware-accelerated decoding using Vulkan-capable GPUs. The
feature aims to improve performance and reduce power consumption. It is part of
ongoing efforts to modernize Firefox's graphics stack. The merge will be
included in upcoming Firefox releases. Developers can test the functionality by
enabling relevant flags. The update may benefit users on platforms where Vulkan
is supported.
