Oh gosh, yes. Video decoders for games is one hell of a complex topic. For a start: patents are everywhere and not free. If you want to decode a 4K video with bare normal framerate (even on modern hardware), you can't do it without paying a patent to someone. You just can't. (cont.)

I kind of dropped off twitter when everything thing happened and quit checking it. The feed was just never the same I haven’t really used Bluesky too much, but I’d like to get back that feed and community of people to engage with. So any #MonoGame developers out there? What are you working on?
