Package: vlc
Version: 3.0.17.4-4+b1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
With vlc version 3.0.17, VA-API hardware acceleration seems lost.
It is not shown in the menu Tools/Preferences/Codecs/Hardware Decoding, only
"Auto / VDPAU / Disable" are available.
Moreover it is not used when "Auto" is selected: there is no "using VAAPI"
message with vlc -vv with an h264 video,
which my intel hd graphics module can handle, and intel_gpu_top shows no
"video" activity.
Command "vlc -vv" shows no --enable-vaapi or disable-vaapi option.
On another machine under debian bullseye, the vlc version is 3.0.16 and VAAPI
acceleration is available.
When I tried to compile vlc from source, ./configure warned that it did not
find libavcodec/vaapi.h. I looked at the libavcodec
versions: on debian bullseye it is 4.4, on sid it is 5.1. I did not investigate
further.
Have a good day.
FM
