Hi,
I use hardware decoding when watching videos, so I think it possible to use gpu acceleration in Dolphin.
My hardware is MacBook Air (Late2010) and NVIDIA GeForce 320M.

How can I use gpu accleration in Dolphin Emulator?
You could try to use our video software backend to see the performance without gpu acceleration Wink

Where can I get the video software backend?
You can choose it in the video settings, but don't expect anything higher than 1-2 fps ...
@usingsystem8

What they're saying is you are already using gpu acceleration. The default graphics backend on macosx, openGL, does most of the rendering work on the GPU.
