@Timo could you please reproduce the issue without this 9years comments? I have video GT425M card which is older, but still works on 18.04 LTS. But not on 20.04 LTS and 22.04 LTS.

vdpau-video 0.7.4 was released over nine years ago, there has been no updates to it since, Debian removed the package and we had it synced from there so naturally it got removed from Ubuntu as well Since nvidia supports VDPAU natively, why can't you use it instead? ** Changed in: vdpau-video (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1890815 Title: vainfo requires a nvidia sofile not in repositories To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libva-utils/+bug/1890815/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1890815] Re: vainfo requires a nvidia sofile not in repositories
Please finally fix this bug by SRU or something. Rebuild VLC, vainfo and so on. It continues to happen - see questions like https://askubuntu.com/q/1378418/66509 even with fresh Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS (20210819) installation. Moreover I have just confirmed this bug while running vainfo on Ubuntu MATE 22.04 LTS on VAIO F13Z1 with Nvidia GT425M using 390.144 video driver. Can't play a video with VLC player (see attached log). It is unbelievable. Fixed by using package from 18.04 LTS as follows: ``` cd ~/Downloads wget -c http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/v/vdpau-video/vdpau-va-driver_0.7.4-6ubuntu1_amd64.deb sudo apt-get install ./vdpau-va-driver_0.7.4-6ubuntu1_amd64.deb ``` But it absolutely unexpected for newbies and inexperienced users. ** Attachment added: "VLC launch with MP4 from /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/mwe/example-movie.mp4 file" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vdpau-video/+bug/1890815/+attachment/5544396/+files/jammy-vdpau.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1890815 Title: vainfo requires a nvidia sofile not in repositories To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libva-utils/+bug/1890815/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Yeah the package missing is vdpau-va-driver, which is in previous releases of Ubuntu, but for some reason was dropped for Canonical. This breaks numerous things on 20.04 when using the Nvidia proprietary drivers. What's crazy is that this actually isn't Nvidia's fault, Ubuntu dropped the package.
