Is that a hardware or software issue? I.e. is it caused by the windows driver for these laptops' graphic units?

Does HEVC work with the Linux drivers on these machines?

So, yeah, HP and Dell are fucked - by what you may ask? Why, AI of course, because it's hiked memory prices so far up it's eating up their profit margins. They might be doomed.

Anyone has a list of the Dell laptops? I have a Latitude 7350 Detachable with an intel core ultra 164U. I think I might be affected...but then again, I have it running KDE neon, so not sure if this is disabled at hardware level or if it will work on a different OS.

You know what? Good.

Because we don't like Dell and HP or because we don't like HEVC?

They're a business and they need to make money!
