wsl media acceleration

The wsl media acceleration tag covers work to bring GPU-assisted media processing to the Windows Subsystem for Linux. Current coverage focuses on a Mesa 26.2 prototype for AV1 video encoding through DirectX 12 and the Hardware Media Foundation Transform (HMFT) interface. The implementation supports initial I- and P-frame encoding and is intended primarily as platform plumbing rather than a finished, consumer-facing Windows feature. These developments show how Microsoft engineers are extending WSL’s capabilities by connecting Linux-side Mesa components with Windows graphics and media infrastructure, while advanced encoding features remain outside the prototype’s current scope.
