oh hey, the README mentions the Diamond Viper VLB! and the Weitek P9000! that's the 2D Accelerator I was researching how to code for earlier today
what's be really cool (and I understand there's a lot of reasons why this would be a nightmare to actually implement) would be a tool like ffprobe that telled you the ffmpeg command that'd produce a given format of video, based on an example file
