no more picture (black screen) when playing vids - dragonsmonk - 2017-02-12
Hey,
since upgrading earlier today to Kodi 17 I have no more picture when playing vids. The sound still works and I can see them menus, but that is it. No settings have been changed, even attempted to play with the display and video settings, but to no avail.

Thanks,
Drags

Your vaapi driver is too old:
Quote:17:36:22.868 T:140583437547264 DEBUG: VAAPI - driver in use: Intel i965 driver - 1.3.0
We need 1.5.x or higher

I had the same problem but i also disable the hardware acceleration in Player settings
Everything works fine now
Maybe it's a long shot, but give it a try
