You have been subscribed to a public bug: I have upgraded my Lenovo Z50-75 (AMD A10-7300 with integrated Radeon R6 GPU) from Ubuntu 20.10 to Ubuntu 21.04 and can no longer play videos with mplayer (nor vlc) when using X.org (that I need to use Cinnamon but I've tried without Cinnamon and seems to be X.org related).
Description: Ubuntu 21.04 Release: 21.04 mplayer: Installed: 2:1.4+ds1-1 vlc: Installed: 3.0.12-3 If I login using Ubuntu on X.org, I'm unable to play videos with mplayer nor vlc. I downloaded sample video from https://sample- videos.com/video123/mp4/720/big_buck_bunny_720p_1mb.mp4 The video plays ok if seen in Firefox. If I try to use mplayer, the window opens, the sound plays but no video. On the console lots of errors like: [vdpau] Error when calling vdp_video_surface_put_bits_y_cb_cr: No backend implementation could be loaded. A: 0.2 V: 0.0 A-V: 0.250 ct: 0.000 0/ 0 ??% ??% ??,?% 0 0 If I try to use vlc, similar thing happens. The sound plays but no video. On the console lots of errors like: [h264 @ 0x7f48ecce3640] hardware accelerator failed to decode picture On Ubuntu 20.10 it was working ok. ** Affects: libvdpau (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: bot-comment -- Can't play video X.org on Ubuntu 21.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1927773 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to libvdpau in Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
