Wine 10.5 Brings Vulkan H.264 Video Decoding, Mono 10.0 & Bluetooth Pairing
Wine 10.5 is out today as the newest bi-weekly development release of this open-source software that is the basis for Valve's Steam Play and allows Windows games and applications to run on Linux systems and elsewhere.
Recent Wine development releases have been plumbing in Direct3D video decoding support built atop Vulkan Video APIs. With Wine 10.5 the WineD3D video support atop Vulkan Video has now been extended to handle H.264 video decoding too.
Wine 10.5 also pulls in the Mono 10.0 engine update, supports larger page sizes on ARM64 such as what's used on some ARM64 servers and Apple Silicon, and there is pairing support now working within Wine's Bluetooth driver. The Wine Bluetooth driver has seen much work over the past few months and it's great seeing that become more complete.
There are 22 known bug fixes in Wine 10.5 helping out software like Microsoft Edge, Wine issues on Apple M1 over the page size, and game issues for titles like Rally Trophy.
