gstreamer1.0-vaapi currently deps on the bad plugins, are you all going
to change that?
For the most part it's worked well over the past couple of years, not
nearly as efficient as vaapi in mpv but still a decent reduction in cpu use.
(- probably 20 -35% of what totem would use without, similar to what vlc
does when vlc happens to work.
Though atm it, (totem/gst-vaapi) doesn't seem to work at all in wayland
session, actually only mpv does sans window deco..

Although gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad does have important uses such as
providing audio codecs and the GL plugin, totem will install it on
demand, anyway. So yes you should be able to drop it.
I would like to add a couple to that list though:
- va-driver-all (should include i965-va-driver)
- gstreamer1.0-vaapi
Is there value in getting them promoted to main for 18.04? I think
the codec licensing is taken care of by the graphics hardware vendor
so I think we should be ok there. If Totem will pull them in
automatically that's good - but I'd love to be able to go one step
further and have them "in the box".
Cheers, Will
