And make sure that the VPU side includes the codec licensing or it is useless One issue we have with iOS is while Apple uses IMG tech VPU/GPUs on their arm devices, they only permit h264 decode and do not expose mpeg2/vc1/etc decoding that the IMG tech hw is very capable of doing. Apple does not license these codecs and so does not expose them.

Others might skip the licensing step but no sane company would ever sell such a product, the liability is just too great and MPEG-LA will eat them for breakfast eventually.
