Ok, reinstalled 12.04 and upgraded the Nvidia driver with xorg-edgers, vdpau is working again. But compiz is consumming a lot of cpu cycle even when idle. The high cpu usage is not observed in 12.10 so it appears to be a Compiz bug which is fixed in 12.10 but have not been backported to 12.04 yet. A work around is to uncheck sync to Vbank in both Nvidia settings and ccsm 's OpenGL tab then compiz's cpu usage becomes normal again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993397 Title: vdpau not working (well) with Ubuntu12.04 Unity To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/993397/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

@c10ud Hi, I am aware of the 'enable gpu acceleration' option in vlc, but it never works. You have to compile vlc and ffmpeg with the proper options enabled for vaapi to work. http://wiki.videolan.org/VLC_VAAPI Moreover, the way VLC uses vdpau (through vaapi) is not efficient (see first paragraph of link above) so even if that is enabled cpu usage is still much higher than mplayer, mplayer2 and XBMC. VLC may have other nifty features, but it is not the best Linux mediaplayer if you watch a lot of HD videos IMO. If you have a vdpau enabled Nvidia card, mplayer usually works a lot better, and mplayer2 is the best. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993397 Title: vdpau not working (well) with Ubuntu12.04 Unity To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/993397/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Actually, on my machine DISABLING sync to vBlank(in both Nvidia settings and ccsm), not enabling it (which is enabled by default) partially works around the problem (it does not work for full screen), see my post #3 If furthermore, "undericted fullscreen windows" is checked in ccsm then vdpau works perfectly in XBMC but still not work for mplayer and mplayer2. But it has other side effects such as tearing for Desktop cube. IIRC there is an option in KDE which disables Desktop compositing for fullscreen applications, I think something like that would probably solve the problem if available in Unity. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993397 Title: vdpau not working (well) with Ubuntu12.04 Unity To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/993397/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Yeah, sorry if my words sounded harsh, I didn't mean to (developer's life ;)). Anyway, I saw the new unity branches and I hope they'll cover this "issue" too.

[Compiz] [Bug 993397] Re: vdpau not working (well) with Ubuntu12.04 Unity
@bowser VLC actually uses vdpau, or at least this is what it says. In order to enable support just install the nvidia proprietary driver, vdpau* packages and in VLC (codecs tab iirc) "enable GPU acceleration" or something like that. Restart VLC and you'll see in debug it's loading and using vdpau (unless it's lying...?). That said i can easily provide more results with different apps but judging from the other comments i don't think there's a need (also, looks like it's the same for everyone here, so i guess it's easily reproducible provided you have an nvidia card). @Daniel I'll try, but still i think that compiz should handle this "automagically", it's not a weird scenario (also please note that in my screenshot the channel wasn't HD...if i watch HD channels they stutter, but i'd leave that out for now) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993397 Title: vdpau not working (well) with Ubuntu12.04 Unity To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/993397/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Compiz] [Bug 993397] Re: vdpau not working (well) with Ubuntu12.04 Unity
I am running 12.04 with nVidia-vdpau installed. In nVidia Settings, Sync to VBlank is enabled by default for BOTH xVideo and OpenGL. There is no such setting (that I can see) affecting vdpau. When login in with session type Ubuntu-2d, CPU keeps near 0% usage when playing H.264 video at 1080p with uMPlayer configured with vdpau. Problem happens ONLY when Compiz is running; same H.264 1080p video shows 40-60% CPU usage on all 4 CPU's. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993397 Title: vdpau not working (well) with Ubuntu12.04 Unity To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/993397/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

In recent releases of the NVIDIA driver (around Ubuntu 12.04 onward), they disabled Sync to VBlank by default. Please try enabling it in nvidia-settings.

[Compiz] [Bug 993397] Re: vdpau not working (well) with Ubuntu12.04 Unity
@c10ud Vlc doesn't use vdpau (if you compile it yourself instead of install from the repo than it can use vdpau through vaapi, but very inefficiently) So it is not a proper test for this bug. mplayer and xbmc do use vdpau, when cpu usage is high for those two then there is a problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993397 Title: vdpau not working (well) with Ubuntu12.04 Unity To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/993397/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
