   6 #Libva Project
   7
   8 Libva is an implementation for VA-API (Video Acceleration API)
   9
  10 VA-API is an open-source library and API specification, which
  11 provides access to graphics hardware acceleration capabilities
  12 for video processing. It consists of a main library and
  13 driver-specific acceleration backends for each supported hardware
  14 vendor.

  19 We also recommend taking a look at the ['janitorial'
  20 bugs](https://github.com/01org/libva/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3AJanitorial)
  21 in our list of open issues as these bugs can be solved without an
  22 extensive knowledge of libva.
