According to inxi, the video is "Advanced Micro Devices [AMD/ATI] RV635 PRO [Radeon HD 3650 AGP]"
And this is using the open source radeon driver. The system is only x86 and not capable of 64 bit.
Vdpau is enabled and working fine according to vdpauinfo, but I can tell just by looking since the machine is very old and not capable of playing 1080p on the cpu, but it does on stand alone video players like mpv and vlc.
This is the vdpauinfo output:
Kodi is version 16.1. I have tried all the available settings, set expert settings, disabled vaapi, but no matter what, it doesn't seem to work. I know some vdpau settings are supposed to show in the video settings of a playing video, but they aren't there. I see them on a laptop that uses vaapi, and I think I remember seeing them on a machine using nvidia with vdpau. Can it be forced to use vdpau on this setup?
