Raspberry Pi (RPi) computers can run UxPlay with software decoding
of h264 video but this usually has unacceptable latency, and
hardware-accelerated GPU decoding should be used. Distributions such
as RPi OS (Bullseye) release have recently dropped support for
32-bit-only OpenMAX (omx) GPU decoding (used by RPiPlay), in favor
of Video4Linux2 (v4l2). Fixes to the GStreamer v4l2 plugin that
allow it to work with UxPlay on RPi are now in the GStreamer
development branch, and will appear in the upcoming GStreamer-1.22
release. A (partial) backport (as
hardware-accelerated GPU decoding should be used. UxPlay provides
access to the GPU using the GStreamer plugin for Video4Linux2
(v4l2), an alternative to unmaintained 32-bit-only OpenMAX (omx)
used by RPiPlay, which is no longer supported by recent
distributions such as RPi OS (Bullseye). Fixes to the GStreamer v4l2
plugin that allow it to work with UxPlay on RPi are now in the
GStreamer development branch, and will appear in the upcoming
GStreamer-1.22 release. A (partial) backport (as
`gstreamer1.0-plugins-good-1.18.4-2+~rpt1`) has already appeared in
RPi OS updates. Until the full update appears, or for other
distributions, you can find [patching instructions for
