simmel Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 (edited) Dear hackintoshers, as you can see in my signature, I'm using an AMD Polaris 11-based GPU. Recently, I decided to enable hardware accelerated video h264 and HEVC decoding and encoding (including kext plist edit and Whatevergreen.kext). My observation was that if I enable AppleGVA.framework via forceATI key, iTunes stops playing protected video content. My expectation is that Apples video driver has some kind of abstraction layer, passing protected video content either directly to AMD's Unified Video Decoder (UVD) or through AppleGVA.framework. The latter case fails for me. Can someone please clarify if this is a driver / framework issue, i. e. work in progress at Apple's side? If it is, I would stop messing with this for now! Thanks! EDIT: IGPU is disabled in BIOS, only dGPU is involved.
