1851736 - Enable NVIDIA RTX Video Super Resolution for video overlay on Windows only during power charge

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Graphics, enhancement)

Description

[Sotaro Ikeda [:sotaro]]

"NVIDIA RTX Video Super Resolution for video overlay" support was added by Bug 1823135. But it is not enabled by default. Since enabling it consumes more power.

Chromium enables it only when power is charging.

Then it seems better to enable it only when PC is power charged.

gecko already supports to notify power status. Though it is not notified to GPU process.
