The guide I linked to above seems to indicate libmali is required for hardware video decoding under mpv. It also mentions a specific minimum ayufan kernel version. Does ayufan's kernel contain a specific patch for this (rkmpp) that may not be present in armbian xenial, for example? Are the ayufan bionic distros the only ones where this should work currently, without patching your kernel?
Is it still the case that we have to choose between accelerated fullscreen video and working GLES or has that been fixed now?
The guide could also be improved by listing the video codecs that are supported by rkmpp.
