[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1374825] Re: VDPAU does not work in libav on Utopic
If i do 'mpv -v -vo vdpau --vd=ffh264vdpau,ffvc1vdpau, movie.m2ts' , i get a high cpu usage. So indeed hardware acceleration does not work. However, if i use 'mpv -v -vo vdpau --hwdec=vdpau movie.mt2s' , i get a nice low cpu usage. So mpv is not affected as long as one uses the new way of choosing hardware acceleration. I believe mplayer2 is no longer in active development. The website 'mplayer2.org' is dead. So chances are small this (i.e. the API changes in libav) will ever be repaired in mplayer2. ** Changed in: mpv (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libav in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1374825 Title: VDPAU does not work in libav on Utopic Status in “libav” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “mplayer” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “mplayer2” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “mpv” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “vlc” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: After upgrading a Kubuntu Trusty x86_64 system to Utopic, VDPAU support has stopped working in all applications that use libav.

"[7f909958] vdpau_avcodec generic error: decoder profile not supported: 6" means that: 1) your libavcodec installation does support VDPAU properly, and 2 ) your VDPAU driver does not support H.264 decoding at all (or reports incorrect capabilities).

This seems to be due to an API change in libav. They dropped the old API for using VDPAU decoding, which broke every application that uses VDPAU through libav. https://libav.org/releases/libav-10.5.release ** Also affects: vlc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: mplayer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: mplayer2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: libav (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** Also affects: mpv (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libav in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1374825 Title: VDPAU does not work in libav on Utopic Status in “libav” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “mplayer” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “mplayer2” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “mpv” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “vlc” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: After upgrading a Kubuntu Trusty x86_64 system to Utopic, VDPAU support has stopped working in all applications that use libav.
