Package: vlc
Version: 1.1.5-3
Severity: normal
Thanks for enabling VAAPI support in VLC debian package. It works, but
not out of the box for me. Not sure if it is VLC or xvba-va-driver
package error though.
I use ATI fglrx and it provides fglrx_drv_video.so library as part of
Debian package xvba-va-driver package.
It is unpacked to:
/usr/lib/va/drivers/fglrx_drv_video.so
However when I enable hardware video acceleration support in VLS it
tries to looks for this library in
/usr/lib/dri/fglrx_drv_video.so
that is not where it is in Debian.
I had to do
ln -s /usr/lib/va/drivers/fglrx_drv_video.so /usr/lib/dri/fglrx_drv_video.so
to make the acceleration work.
