Thanks Phil for letting us know about the update!

Is OpenCL GPU decode better performance/less VRAM requirements than Metal or CUDA?

I'll have to do a round of benchmarks. I'm all Nvidia on my boxes, but the key thing from my perspective is OpenCL Decode should now support ATI GPUs, which don't feature CUDA. I would expect realtime 8K playback works on decent cards.

Likely do it over the weekend.

Also hoping OpenCL decode rocks. Having to run Windows to use Nvidia is a PITA. Please let me go back to Mac...
