I'd like to run hardware-accelerated noise cancelling of RNNNoise-quality.
For me, Mumble has a serious background CPU usage problem as soon as I turn that noise cancelling on, even if I'm client-side muted.
I can only offer an i915 (Broadwell) target for said offloading, though.
I mean it is free if you have the card anyway, but sure.
I didn't mean free as in "costs $0". The software comes with a restrictive, proprietary license, and no source code is provided.
I guess everyone has the choice to use the best one or the free one but rarely at the same time.
Except in the case of Opus, by the sounds of these comments here.
