<p>> At Vulkanised 2023 discussion round Khronos admited that they aren't going to improve GLSL any further, and ironicly rely on Microsoft's HLSL work as the main shader language to go alongside Vulkan.<p>That sounds intriguing, but I haven't been able of finding any references to it(I guess it was discussed in the panel but the video of it is private) do you have any reference of more information into it?<p>is it related to adding hlsl support to clang?</p>

<p>They did try, apple made OpenCL and released it to khronos to make a standard, but never got wide support(well, they got plenty of manufacturers on board, not so much users).<p>By that time nvidia already had an advantage with CUDA and their opencl support always lagged.</p>

<p>to nitpick: windows also needs to provide a main function(why shouldn't?)<p>but I agree that the fact that the standard allow for 2 different declarations of main in a language without poliformism doesn't help.<p>Not to start with the whole implementations are free to define extra entry points part.</p>

<p>YUV has been the standard video Color encoding on TV.
It is in fact a backwards compatible extension to black and white as the wikipedia page puts it: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YUV" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YUV</a><p>while not standard, writing a shader to decode is not hard(admittedly if you know shaders)<p>The time I spent dealing with video decode/encode was not pleasurable but interesting.<p>The really hard part is the actual encoding/decoding algorhtims</p>
