@dhh something like this (referring to #5478 (comment))

I've never built anything in/for Omarchy before, so if this isn't what you were intending, let me know and I'll re-work it. Hopefully I've understood Omarchy well enough that it's what you thought of.

Pull request overview

Note

Copilot was unable to run its full agentic suite in this review.

Adds a hardware fix for Strix Halo (Ryzen AI Max+ 395) systems where Chromium-based browsers have broken VA-API video acceleration, by appending flags that disable hardware video decode/encode to Chromium and Brave flag config files.

Changes:

  • New install script that detects the Strix Halo CPU and appends VA-API-disabling flags to chromium-flags.conf and brave-flags.conf.
  • Wired the new script into install/config/all.sh.
  • Migration that runs the fix for existing installations.

This is a good point, but I don't know enough about Omarchy's internals to know who it's running as at this point of the process to know which to use 🤷‍♂
