- * This is a vout sink using EGL/GLES.
+ * EglGlesSink renders video frames on a EGL surface it sets up
+ * from a window it either creates (on X11) or gets a handle to
+ * through it's xOverlay interface. All the display/surface logic
+ * in this sink uses EGL to interact with the native window system.
+ * The rendering logic, in turn, uses OpenGL ES v2.
+ *
+ * This sink has been tested to work on X11/Mesa and on Android
+ * (From Gingerbread on to Jelly Bean) and while it's currently
+ * using an slow copy-over rendering path it has proven to be fast
+ * enough on the devices we have tried it on. That being said, there's
+ * an currently unfinished and drafted fast rendering path in the code,
+ * relying on a set of EGL/GLES extensions.
