Welcome to the Funtoo Media project! This project is focused on curating various types of media support in Funtoo. By 'media', we are generally referring to all the media-related packages in media-kit (both 1.4-release and next) as well as potentially some packages that should be in media-kit, plus the media-related multi-profiles.

Goals

The goal of the Funtoo Media project is to provide essential functionality related to media support in Funtoo Linux, and to curate/maintain the media packages.

OpenGL	full	A common 2D and 3D rendering engine.
PipeWire	partial	PipeWire (aka media-video/pipewire, also see PipeWire on Gentoo Wiki) is not yet officially supported in Gentoo or Funtoo. There are several ebuilds that optionally depend on PipeWire. This is OK. If your ebuild can use PipeWire, it should conditionally depend on it via a USE variable, and this functionality should default to off via Funtoo USE settings. Also of note is that the various things that depend on PipeWire in Funtoo/Gentoo sometimes have different USE variables, generally focused on the name of the feature enabled, rather than a USE variable of pipewire. See FL-9407 for more information on PipeWire in Funtoo. We are open to a project to officially add PipeWire support to Funtoo, but this should be an organized effort rather than just having PipeWire 'silently depended upon' with new incoming PRs. This would create unnecessary untracked dependency on PipeWire in our default builds of Funtoo which we don't want.

This represents the production operation of the wiki (wiki content, as well as wiki development are not considered part of User Services and should be handled by other projects.)
