That sucks, thank you for the quick response! Looks like my vita still has some use.It's a hard stopping point until nouveau gets updated, or someone implements nvdec for the Switch independently of nouveau

Can FFMPEG's implementation be of any use?

There is still no support for nvdec in libnx. Without it moonlight runs super slow.
Alternatively there is another homebrew available that turns your switch into a usb screen.
Of course you need to connect your switch via USB to your pc. But it actually works, tried it myself.
Currently just lowres with 30fps.
Have a look to this? Haven't heard of it and I can't find anything on it.
Is nvdec being worked on?, Last I heard it was blocked because there was no access to the GPU, is that solved?There is still no support for nvdec in libnx. Without it moonlight runs super slow.

ffmpeg is not hardware decoding though
I created VideoSetupNX using C#/FFMPEG and it doesn't actually deal with any Nintendo Switch files. I don't even have the SDK. I think you're referring to the tool it recommends using, Homebrew Web Framework. (Simply because there's no non-SDK solution to do it. Otherwise, I would recommend that.)It looks like VideoSetupNX uses the SDK and doesn't really count as a homebrew (depends on the definition you give it). As a result, it has nvdec but is illegal.
VideoSetupNX simply converts files to a MP4 format that the switch can natively play, along with fancy HTML (Modified, the original made by @OkazakiTheOtaku). Then you use a tool built with the SDK (What is what @natinusala was referring to) to package the files and the HTML code (which literally just loads the video file) in a NSP file. It's not a homebrew video player, more like a... preperation tool?PlayerNX or VideoSetupNX
I'm not 100% sure - I assumed the switch just natively supported the MP4 format as part of it's web browser. If the web player is something built from the ground up in the SDK (like it was included in a game or something originally), then yes. I'll freely admit you're way more knowledgable about this topic then I am, my extent of devving on the switch is just basic Hello world and controller testing stuff.But the actual web player is in the SDK right ?
