# VA-API fake backend for libva
VA-API is an API for video/image decoding/encoding acceleration implemented by
[libva] ([x11-libs/libva]). `libva-fake-driver` provides a fake backend for it
for VMs and other test-related images.
It can be explicitly exercised by running e.g.:
LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME="fake" vainfo
wherever it might be installed. See https://tinyurl.com/libva-fake-driver for
more information.
