When VPP is fixed. I tested it today again. It works flawless on IVB, but Haswell only can do BOB with a special patch that was made cause of my constant nagging in vaapi-intel-driver ... I won't do anything to get VPP into xbmc direction if the driver is not fixed for hsw.
If you are on IVB, see my vpp branch, i have rebased btbn's work onto Gotham and parked it there.

Hello, im using your ubuntu repo for my intel nuc, and it works very good.
i got a little issue thought i have tried two spotify plugins and both shows same sympthoms, that first song in playlist after a stopped playback plays as it should, sometimes it plays two full tracks before it cuts of, usually around a minute, after it has cutoff first time, its silent, but keeps playback timer and change track, next track plays 10-15seconds, sometimes up to 30-40seconds then it goes silent again.
i guess its the libspotifycore that is the issue, but it works for most people using regular gotham betas and i guess there might be something with intel audio hardware? but i guess not..
just thought i would ask here too, i have posted in the spotlight plugin thread too, just dont know whats wrong and why..
any thoughts?
ps sometimes it doesnt even play the first track fully and cutsoff randomly from middle to the end..

No - no thoughts.
You are completely off topic and did not even provide logfiles.

I did notice a small difference in aliasing - in fact in the sample you sent me, there was considerably less aliasing in the Seavus logo with w3 than there was with yadif. Not really noticeable with video in motion, but can definitely see it in the static logo. I didn't do a whole lot of other comparisons though. If the performance could somehow be optimized, it might actually bring some quality difference, but perhaps not enough until we have stronger CPUs.
I was able to play video OK on my i7 workhorse machine in XBMC with w3, but the i5 NUC just couldn't keep up.

Stop using VAAPI on an nvidia device. You have a broken wrapper installed - that crashes the driver.
